    I have to say i own a decent amount of Corsair hardware (kb+m, RAM, SSD and PSU), and none has ever given me an issue. Most of it I got a few years back so maybe that was before they declined?

    Compared to Razer, where I’ve owned 3 mice and all of them failed one way or another. Decent keyboards though.

      FYI many of Corsair’s PSUs are just their branding slapped on a different company’s part (made for them obviously), so some are okay to good, and some are trash

      Edit: To be clear I use a ton of Corsair products (RAM, AiO, KB+M, Case, Fans) so not shitting on them, though their software is absolute dog shit tier. iCue will randomly disappear from my system every so often, only for all the files to still be there…but no executable.

      Most of their products are produced in places like China but their RAM is still produced in Taiwan and high quality

        Yes I did a decent amount of research on their PSUs, I managed to get one with a pretty solid reputation.

        And I’m on Linux and use a community made software suite called CKB-Next, so I haven’t had to deal with iCue in a couple years thankfully
