Gamers Nexus Reviews $6,600 Origin-Corsair Custom PC and It’s Absolutely AWFUL

Origin was once one of the most respected custom PC integrators in the world. They went toe to toe with Falcon Northwest, and were renowned for their build quality. Not anymore. Steve from Gamers Nexus, seen above staring at evidence we’re in the worst possible timeline, purchased and reviewed a $6,600 Origin custom PC. This is not a review sample. They bought this undercover. Spoiler alert, it’s an absolute mess and broken out of the box. How bad is it? Let’s look at the issues. – The CPU (5800X3D) was locked to its base clock and running about 25% …

A letter from @PlayfulPhoenix, owner of SFF.Network: Today I have some big news to share: as of today, Minutiae Media (the company that operates SFF.Network) has been acquired by Corsair! Furthermore, as a part of this transition, SFF.Network will now be called RGB.Network, becoming one of the brightest spots on the net.

The big news for us SFF’rs this year (albeit beaten at the last moment by Silverstone) was the Corsair SF600 Platinum SFX Modular power supply. Let’s have a look! This new power supply is an update to the original Gold rated SF600 – which James reviewed here. Upon first glance, only minor component changes …

Corsair’s Bulldog Gets a Revamp

We weren’t the biggest fans of the original Corsair Bulldog. The cooler was… loud. Corsair seems to have taken some of the feedback to heart, and a revamp of the Bulldog case and platform has been performed. Gone is the blower fan, replaced with a standard closed loop cooler. The included board appears to be made by MSI, and features a red colour theme. It appears to be a solidly featured M-ITX motherboard.

Corsair launches cable kit for SF-series SFX PSUs

The SF600 SFX power supply from Corsair is a great unit, but one of the complaints I had in my review was that the stock ribbon cables were stiff and unwieldy in a tight SFF build. They weren’t terrible by any means, but they were a far cry from the very flexible cables SilverStone includes with their SFF units. Today Corsair is addressing that with a Premium PSU Cable Kit for the SF-Series, featuring individually sleeved cables. While Corsair offers similarly sleeved cable kits for their other PSUs, this kit comes in lengths appropriate for a SFX power supply: 1x 24-pin …
