Corsair is going to become a PC vendor, with the company announcing that it intends to unleash a fully-fledged rig – apparently of the gaming variety – onto the market.
Famous for its components (including memory, SSDs, power supplies and cases along with other peripherals like keyboards), the firm has previously offered barebones kits (like the Bulldog living room PC), but the Corsair One will be its first ready-built PC with all components in place.
The bad news at this point is that there are absolutely no spec details thus far, with Corsair staying very tight-lipped about exactly what it’ll put inside this machine. All we have thus far is a web page with a picture of the PC where surfers can sign up to be notified when further details are made available.
There’s also a promo piece as spotted by Hexus which shows the PC positioned next to someone engrossed in a game on a curved ultra-wide monitor (see above), indicating that this is a gaming machine (as you would expect – Corsair is hardly likely to be building a workstation computer).
Design for life
In design terms, the Corsair One looks pretty compact – at least length-wise – and has some subtle glowing blue lines down its front, with plenty of cooling vents.
The promotional bumph urges the reader to not only ‘battle’, but ‘explore’ and ‘create’, which along with the mention of a ‘category-defying PC’ suggests a machine which could also be targeted at creative types as well as gamers.
This is also reflected in the fact that it’s a fairly sophisticated looking rig as opposed to some gaming PCs which can tend to veer towards looking like an alien spaceship complete with multicolored lights aplenty.
In short, at this point we don’t know enough, but it’s definitely exciting to think about what Corsair could potentially come up with here. There’s no indication of any launch date yet, but we can’t wait to get our hands on the One to give it the review treatment.
