At CES this year, Corsair comes armed with two new cases. The Corsair 6500X is a dual-chamber case compatible with reverse connection motherboards, like MSI's new Project Zero board. The new Corsair 2500X is a smaller version with the same feature set, including swappable front panels so you can opt for a solid front for aesthetics or a mesh front for better cooling. Both cases are due to launch in February but prices are currently TBD. You'll want to save some extra though, as higher end cases often don't ship with any pre-installed fans, so you'll want to bring in your current fans or invest in some new ones.
Speaking of fans, Corsair is launching a few new ones. The new RX Series fans with iCUE link will be available in RGB and non-RGB form later this month. The new AF120 MAX fans aim to offer maximum cooling performance and are set to be Corsair's best performing fans, with plans to arrive in Q2 2024.
We all know Corsair for their AIO liquid coolers but what about air cooling? This year, Corsair will launch the new A115 air cooler, featuring on-rail fans to provide maximum DRAM compatibility and ease of installation. This cooler will be dropping later this month, so we won't have to wait long to see how it stacks up to the best air coolers on the market.
On the Elgato side, Corsair is showcasing the new 4K X External capture card, utilising HDMI 2.1 to capture 4K at up to 144Hz or 1080p at up to 240Hz. It'll be arriving in February, offering a high-end option that you don't have to directly install in your PC case. On the other hand, we have the 4K Pro Internal Capture Card, which also uses HDMI 2.1, up to 8K passthrough and simultaneous recording of 4K/60FPS or 1080p/240FPS.
