Corsair is best known for its memory products-DIMMs and flash-but it has a solid line of power supply units, as well. The company sent ThinkComputers its TX750, a 750W unit with a single 60A 12V rail-powerful enough for a GeForce 8800 GTX. While non-modular, the cables are sleeved and have quick-release connectors. We tested this device with a five-year warranty-results within.

If an 8 or 16GB of flash storage is not enough for your everyday needs, what about a 32GB? Yes, you have read it right, Corsair has released its latest Voyager flash drive and this time it comes with a hefty 32GB of flash memory. Before you decide what to put there, let's check out key features and drive s performance.

It has been almost five years since I reviewed a Corsair product. In that time, ASE Labs and the industry have evolved. Five years ago it was DDR that was the memory of choice and DDR2 wasn't even on enthusiast's tongues. Fast forward to 2008 and we've got DDR3 just coming on the market. DDR2 is still alive and is the king of value right now. Corsair's 4GB XMS2 PC2-6400 kit is the subject for review.

Corsair is a traditional memory manufacturer they gained a lot of respect in the industry with their power supplies - we reviewed HX620W and TX750W and they are terrific products. But how the entry-level series from Corsair, dubbed VX, performs? Today we will take the most inexpensive power supply from Corsair, VX450W, and completely disassemble it and see if it can really deliver its labeled power.

The Corsair Dominator Twin3X2048 1800C7DFIN DDR3 2GB Kit arrived Technic3D. Technic3D will see as good they are with Overclocking against the OCZ 1.800 Memory Kit on Windows Vista Ultimate and the Asus P5E3 Deluxe WiFi Mainboard. You can see 1.860 MHz with 7-7-7-20 in the following Review.

Honestly, Corsair has surprised me with this unit. After examination of its simple internal design and small heatsinks I was not sure if unit will be able to perform well. But TX650 has exceeded my expectations! During my testing, the Corsair TX650 650W power supply was very stable and did not have any failures or other performance issues. The voltage fluctuations were minimal and the voltages stayed well within ATX standards.

We're writing to let you all know that we've just posted a new article at HotHardware in which we evaluate the features, performance, and overclockability of Corsair's current flagship Dominator TWIN3X2048-1800C7DFIN G DDR3-1800 memory kit. As its name implies, this 2GB (2 x 1GB) memory kit is rated for operation at 1800MHz with a CAS latency of 7. But it is also one of a select few memory kits to support Intel's Extreme Memory Profiles, or XMP. And it turned out to be a heck of an overclocker too. Head on over to the site and check it out...

The Corsair VX550W PSU arrived Technic3D. See you in the following Review from Technic3D the next PSU Review with a high efficiency and a good price. Make the Ultra-quiet 120mm double ball-bearing fan, 6 Serial ATA connectors and extra long cables support this PSU better than other PSUs?

HX620W (also known as CMPSU-620HX) is a power supply that Corsair claims can deliver its rated power at 50 C, and featuring a modular cabling system, a big 120-mm fan, active PFC, high efficiency and two video card power cables for you to feed your SLI or CrossFire system. We completely disassembled this power supply to see the components and design used and also tested to see if it can really deliver its labeled 620 W.

We had the chance a while back to review the Corsair HX series 620 watt power supply and it managed to be one of the most stable we have yet to come across. The power levels were incredibly clean and showed no stability issues at all. While this was a sure winner in our labs, past performance won't help out in today's testing. When it comes to power supplies, the days of picking up whatever happens to be on the shelf are long gone. With the advent of more powerful processors, graphics and cooling solutions, power is just too important to take shortcuts with.

We completely disassembled the latest power supply from Corsair, TX750W (CMPSU-750TX), which features a single +12V rail, 140-mm fan and four 6/8-pin power connectors for video cards, and also tested to see if it can truly deliver 750 W. Updated to include load tests.

Corsair has been in the memory business for quite some time now offering value ram for the budget minded consumer, to uber-expensive kits for the ultra high-end enthusiast. Today we take a look at one such high-end kit of DDR2, the Corsair Dominator TWIN2X2048-9136C5D. Does this kit have the performance to match it's dominating price tag, or will your wallet be the only one feeling dominated? Read more to find out!

Attempts to diversify are common among PC component manufacturers, but these are not always marked by success. One of the most successful diversification attempts was made by Corsair nearly a year ago. Corsair, being a highly reputable RAM manufacturer at the time, released a small range of high class PSUs aimed towards enthusiasts, with the "HX series" moniker. We reviewed the HX620W unit back then which we found an excellent choice for enthusiasts and a year later the HX620W is still one of the best choices for performance systems. Because of the great success of the HX series, Corsair launched the VX series back in August and the TX series shortly after that. The VX series units are aimed towards the value-conscious PC users, however our review of one of the first VX450W units was a surprise because of its remarkable performance. The TX series consists of high output units but without unnecessary features or aesthetic add-ons, aimed towards enthusiasts who are seeking to get the best value out of their purchase.

Upon cracking open the TX750 and kissing the warranty goodbye, it was immediately evident that it is indeed a CWT built power supply. It is very similar in construction to the CWT built Corsair VX550. The thick black heatsink fins and green tape wrapped components are a telltale sign. Interestingly, the TX750 board could have easily fit in a standard size PSU casing had it not been for the oversize 140mm fan.
