Corsair Wants a Single Cable to Connect Everything: Attention on iCUE LINK at Computex
At Computex 2026, CORSAIR announced a new generation of components dedicated to DIY PC enthusiasts. At the heart of the offering is iCUE LINK, an ecosystem that allows coolers, fans, cases, and other peripherals to be connected using a single cable. This expands the range of compatible devices, which seems to herald an increasing departure from traditional connections.
WARTHOG: a modern take on the Vengeance C70
Among the key innovations is the new CORSAIR WARTHOG, a mid-tower case that reinterprets the identity of the famous Vengeance C70 with modern features. The structure utilizes high-thickness steel, integrated handles, and quick-open side panels to facilitate maintenance and assembly.
CORSAIR designed the WARTHOG with particular attention to airflow. The front and top panels use a high-ventilation 3D-Y structure that improves the cooling of internal components. The frame supports radiators up to 360 mm in multiple positions and integrates the InfiniRail system for simplified fan mounting.
The new case also offers compatibility with rear-connection motherboards, includes the RapidRoute 2.0 tray for cable management, and integrates an anti-bend support for large graphics cards. According to CORSAIR, the design aims to meet users who prefer an aggressive and functional design over traditional cases with glass panels or wood inserts.
Power supplies: AX1600i and HX1000i SHIFT
Great attention was also given to enthusiast power supplies. The new AX1600i SHIFT represents the evolution of the original AX1600i and introduces gallium nitride (GaN) components to reduce size and power loss. Despite its 1600 W power and Cybenetics Titanium certification, the power supply measures only 170 mm in length.
CORSAIR pairs the SHIFT side connectors with dual 12V-2x6 cables dedicated to multi-GPU configurations. The power supply supports complete digital monitoring via USB and iCUE LINK, with advanced adjustments for enthusiast users. The package includes Japanese capacitors certified up to 105 °C, a 140 mm fluid dynamic bearing fan, and a Zero RPM mode that completely stops rotation under low loads.
At Computex 2026, the new HX1000i SHIFT Crystal was also showcased, a power supply that emphasizes both performance and aesthetic impact. The transparent side panels reveal the internal components, while the PinProtect+ technology monitors the current on each pin of the native 12V-2x6 cable at 90 degrees directly from the iCUE software.
The model also integrates a 140 mm RGB fan with a dome magnetic bearing, Type-5 modular cables with a single sheath, and low-profile combs for a tidier finish. Additionally, it includes Cybenetics Platinum certification, ATX 3.1 support, PCIe 5.1 compatibility, and an integrated iCUE LINK hub.
Liquid cooling: the iCUE LINK TITAN II family
For liquid cooling, CORSAIR presented the new iCUE LINK TITAN II ULTRA 360 LX LCD, an AIO solution that combines high thermal performance with extensive visual customization. The cooler uses a double-layer radiator with a cross-flow structure that improves heat dissipation during prolonged loads.
The platform also makes use of a FlowDrive Gen 2 pump, a new optimized cooling plate, and TM100 phase-change thermal material. The LX360 Unified Frame fans, on the other hand, adopt a unified 360 mm frame that reduces vibrations and complexity during installation.
One of the most distinctive elements of the TITAN II ULTRA is the 5-inch IPS display with 720x1280 resolution and DisplayPort connection. The screen can display hardware statistics, animations, iCUE widgets, or function as a secondary monitor directly within the Windows operating system.
The TITAN II family also includes the models TITAN II 360 RX RGB and TITAN II 360 RX LCD, developed to keep noise low during gaming and daily productivity. In this case, CORSAIR uses a FlowDrive Gen 2 pump along with a new convex plate that improves thermal contact with the CPU.
The radiator structure further utilizes a lower fin density to increase airflow and reduce overall noise. The second-generation RX II fans integrate AirGuide technology to focus airflow in the most critical points of the cooler. Additionally, Corsair announced that the 5-inch display will also be available as a separate kit, compatible with both the new TITAN II RX and previous-generation TITAN RX models.
The RX LCD model, on the other hand, comes with the 5-inch IPS display already included, while RGB lighting control and thermal management are handled entirely through the iCUE software and iCUE LINK connectivity.
Fans and Frame 5000 wood panels
Finally, CORSAIR has expanded its fan line with the new iCUE LINK LX360 RGB Unified Frame and LX360-R RGB Unified Frame - the latter represents the reverse flow variant. Both versions use a single 360 mm frame that integrates three RGB fans with dual light circuits and 18 LEDs per fan. The models utilize dome magnetic bearings, support PWM control and Zero RPM modes, and come with the iCUE LINK System Hub included to centralize connections and software management.
Alongside the major news, Corsair also showed new panels for the Frame 5000 case, both made of wood and named Wood and Elite Wood, with a vertical design or ripple pattern. The new 5000D Wood RS case will also arrive on the market with a pre-installed wood panel.
Peripherals: chair, headset, keyboard and mouse
In terms of peripherals, Corsair presented some interesting solutions that combine performance and affordability. Highlights include the new TC80 chair characterized by a wide flat seat and breathable fabric with faux leather inserts. The chair boasts BIFMA X5.1 and EN 1335 certifications for comfort and durability accessible to everyone.
Along with the chair, the HS35 V3 Wireless headphones will be launched, a headset featuring triple connection modes (wireless, Bluetooth, and wired) and cross-platform compatibility with a battery life of up to 30 hours. It also supports Dolby Atmos for directional audio backed by two 50 mm neodymium drivers. The same model will also be offered in a wired variant.
Room was also made for mice and keyboards with two significant innovations. The first is the Clipper Pro Mini 60 keyboard, a solution designed especially for professionals. The 60% layout and Hall Effect switches make it an ideal tool for FPS games where responsiveness and ample space for mouse movement are critical. Notably, the keyboard also offers an IP57 protection rating against water and dust.
The second innovation is the Nightsword V2 Wireless SD, Corsair's first mouse to integrate a dedicated button for launching Steam Deck. When pressed, an overlay appears through which profiles, shortcuts, media controls, and more can be configured. Naturally, performance has not been neglected: the mouse hosts a proprietary Corsair Marksman S sensor that, with a resolution of up to 33,000 DPI, ensures a precision of 99.7%, a tracking speed of up to 750 IPS, and an acceleration of 50G. The battery provides up to 170 hours of runtime, while the optical switches are tested for 100 million clicks.
