Just for note, the reviews are listed from earliest to newest. We’ll also update the list as we post more reviews through the end of the year, so bookmark this page to stay up to date.
Corsair iCue 5000x case
Review date: January 15, 2021 Score: 9/10 Reviewer: Kevin Foley Link to review
From Our Review:
Find it on:
…There are a lot of great computer cases out there, but Corsair clearly strikes a nice balance between style, quality, build features, and cooling potential with the iCue 5000x.

Atlantic Viper 3000 Gaming Desk
Review date: February 11, 2021 Score: 7.5/10 Reviewer: Mike Straw Link to review
If you need storage or shelving, however, this isn’t going to be one you should gravitate towards. But, if you’re just looking for a desk that looks good (and if you really like blue), is reliable, and can comfortably support you and all you need on it, the Viper 3000 is definitely worth the look.
Corsair Katar Pro XT ultra-light gaming mouse

Loupedeck Live
Review date: March 3, 2021 Score: 8/10 Reviewer: Mike Straw Link to review
Assuming you want to use it for only streaming, you’d be better off elsewhere for now. There’s just a bit too much missing for it to surpass the Stream Deck in that regard.
Corsair K65 RGB Mini
Review date: March 16, 2021 Score: 9/10 Reviewer: Kevin Foley Link to review
Corsair MP600 Core
Review date: March 31, 2021 Score: 7/10 Reviewer: Mike Straw Link to review
Overall, it’s hard not to like what Corsair has done with the MP600 Core. Though the file transfer speed may cause pause, being able to take programs that have long load times and speed them up by over 70% should interest anyone.

Astro A20 Gen 2 wireless gaming headset
Review date: April 30, 2021 Score: 7.5/10 Reviewer: Steven Wong Link to review
The exceptional wireless audio performance trumps just about all the usability issues. I wouldn’t call the A20 one of my favorite headsets from Astro, but it certainly does an excellent job of immersing you in games. Ultimately, that’s all that matters.

Secretlab Omega review
Review date: May 7, 2021 Score: 9.5/10 Reviewer: Mike Straw Link to review
If you are on the border of the size restrictions and don’t like a snug fit, you may want to consider jumping up to the Titan model.

MOJO Pro Performance Silent Gaming Mouse

Corsair Virtuoso RGB Wireless XT headset
Review date: May 20, 2021 Score: 9.5/10 Reviewer: Mike Straw Link to review
Being able to connect to two devices at once while also having separate volume controls for each is a major selling point, and the included Dolby Atmos license is a nice incentive.
