Stylish and powerful, this PC packs in a range of high-end components
PRICE £3,667 (£4,400 inc VAT) from corsair.com/uk
The Corsair One i300 mini PC was one of the most eye-catching launches at CES 2022, with the component company cramming some of the best tech around into a stylish, compact case. I’m talking top-of-the-line components such as the Intel Core i9-12900K, a liquid cooled Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 Ti, not to mention a 2TB SSD and up to 64GB of DDR5 RAM.
It’s also by far the most expensive Corsair One launched to date, with a starting price of £3,500: that’s with a non-Ti GeForce RTX 3080 and 32GB of memory. If you want the i300 with an RTX 3080 Ti, you’ll part with £4,200. And if 64GB of DDR5 memory tickles your fancy, not only will you pay £4,400 but the RTX 3080 Ti drops down to an RTX 3080. (Or you can travel to the US, where a 64GB model is available for $5,000 plus tax.)
That’s a high price, but if you’re dying to get an RTX 3080 Ti then the current worldwide shortage of this card limits your options. The card alone costs £1,500 at the moment, if you can find it for sale.
Different by design
