I’ve been thinking about building a new gaming PC lately,
and one of the things that stood out to me was how I kept returning to
Corsair for all of my component picks. My favored choices for memory
modules, power supply, and water cooling all came from the veteran PC
parts maker, and since Corsair also makes cases, keyboards, and mice, I
got to wondering why it doesn’t just sell an entire, pre-assembled PC.
Well, that question is answered today with the news that Corsair is
indeed about to release a PC.
The Corsair One has just been teased in the pages of Maximum PC,
and it looks like the middle ground between a conventional desktop
tower and Apple’s Mac Pro cylinder. No specs or details are available
yet, but the promise is that it’s "a machine built from the ground up to
power anything and everything you love to do." Corsair’s roots are in
gaming, so it’s fair to interpret that as indicating a powerful graphics
card, allied to a solid CPU and tons of fast storage. Though where
you’d fit all of that inside such a compact case is kind of a mystery.
As one of the most respected names among PC gamers,
Corsair has a lot to live up to with this new PC, but its compact shape
and promise of being a "category-defying" product do portend positively
for its appeal to an audience beyond gamers as well.
