Corsair announces plans to launch its first complete PC, the One

PC enthusiasts know the Corsair brand because of the wide variety of products offered by the company, which spans from essential build components like memory modules and power supply units, to peripherals like mice and keyboards. Now, Corsair is preparing to launch its own pre-built PC.

The Corsair One will be the company’s first attempt at bringing a pre-configured PC build to market. However, the company has previously shipped similar products in its Bulldog line, a series of bare-bones computers that offer a basic framework that the user can customize with their own choice of components.

We don’t know much about the specs of the Corsair One, as its creators have yet to offer any detailed technical information. However, there are several pieces of evidence that indicate that the system will be aimed at gamers, according to a report from AnandTech.

First off, it’s impossible to ignore the fact that the Corsair One’s case design fits the gaming PC mold very well. It’s got the sleek lines, it’s got the accent lighting, and it’s got no shortage of ventilation on its side panels to make sure that its internal components can do their job without interruption.

Moreover, there’s a HDMI port on the front of the tower, which should make it easy to connect a virtual reality headset to the system. If that is the reason for it, we can infer that the Corsair One will at least exceed the minimum specs required to run VR content.

This would in turn suggest that the system won’t come cheap. Corsair has yet to announce how much the One will cost, or when it’s set to release, but all signs point to this rig being a premium model with a premium price tag.

Valorant Episode 8 Act 1 begins next week, and today, Riot Games revealed that it will introduce a brand new weapon to the game. A double-barreled sniper rifle called the Outlaw, it is the first new weapon to come to Valorant since Riot Games released it in 2020.

As the third sniper rifle in Valorant, Outlaw stands out from the others because it's a two-shot weapon that doesn't break zoom when fired and has different reload times depending on how many shots are left. It'll cost 2,400 credits in the pre-round item shop, which puts it between the price tags of the other sniper rifles during a match.

This stunning Corsair keycap set has one major problem

If your keycaps had names like Steel Crimson and Steel Azure, could you stop looking at them? I certainly can't stop looking at this new set from Corsair, which is available as part of a bundle with a limited edition desk mat. These are some lovely keycaps, but they have a couple of issues that may be too big to overlook.

It's a push into enthusiast keycaps for Corsair, and from a visual standpoint, they fit the mark. However, a lack of flexibility with your keyboard layout limits their use, and the high price is hard to stomach for what Corsair is offering.

There’s no doubt that Apple had plenty to unveil at its “Scary Fast” event on October 30, with new devices galore revealed over the show’s duration. For what was an unexpected show, Apple managed to pack in an awful lot.
