Corsair started out making DRAM modules in 1994 and has since expanded into one of the most recognizable brands in PC gaming and enthusiast computing. The company covers a huge range of products — from RAM and power supplies to gaming peripherals and streaming gear.
Corsair’s memory and PC component business remains strong. The Vengeance and Dominator RAM lines are popular choices for gaming PCs and workstations. Corsair also makes power supplies (the RMx and HX series are well-regarded), AIO liquid coolers, PC cases, and fans. The iCUE software ties everything together with synchronized RGB lighting control across all Corsair products.
The gaming peripheral lineup includes mice, keyboards, headsets, and mousepads. The K100 keyboard and Scimitar mouse cater to enthusiasts, while the HS80 headset targets the mid-range with solid audio quality. Corsair peripherals generally emphasize build quality and features over flashy gimmicks.
Corsair’s acquisition of Elgato brought a dominant streaming equipment brand into the fold. Elgato’s Stream Deck has become the control center for streamers and content creators, and it’s increasingly used by professionals for productivity shortcuts. Elgato also makes capture cards, studio lighting, and teleprompters.
The company went public in 2020, riding the pandemic-era surge in PC gaming and content creation. Corsair also acquired Origin PC (custom gaming PCs) and SCUF Gaming (premium game controllers), broadening its reach across the gaming ecosystem.
Based in Milpitas, California, Corsair generates over $1.5 billion in annual revenue and maintains a loyal following among PC enthusiasts who appreciate the company’s consistent product quality.
