Corsair Gaming (NASDAQ:CRSR), headquartered in Fremont, California, is a leading manufacturer of high-performance gaming peripherals and PC components. Since its founding in 1994 by Andy Paul, Don Lieberman and John Beekley as Corsair Microsystems, the company has evolved from producing memory modules to a broad portfolio of gaming hardware. Its product range includes gaming keyboards, mice, headsets, PC chassis, power supplies, cooling solutions, memory modules, solid-state drives and streaming accessories under brands such as Corsair, Elgato and SCUF Gaming.
The company’s solutions cater to PC enthusiasts, competitive gamers and content creators, offering hardware and integrated software designed to optimize performance and user experience. Following its acquisition of Elgato Gaming, Corsair expanded into video capture and livestreaming gear, enabling content creators to produce high-quality broadcasts with features like 4K capture and real-time overlays. Corsair’s iCUE software platform unifies device control, lighting profiles and system monitoring to deliver a cohesive user interface across its product ecosystem.
Corsair serves a global customer base through a combination of direct-to-consumer e-commerce channels and partnerships with major retail and distribution networks across North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific. Regional distribution centers and international logistics agreements support rapid order fulfillment and localized product availability. This diversified sales model balances online platforms with brick-and-mortar presence in key gaming markets.
In September 2020, Corsair completed its initial public offering on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol CRSR, marking a significant milestone in its corporate history. The company’s veteran leadership team, with extensive experience in technology and consumer electronics, continues to drive innovation through sustained investment in research and development. As gaming and streaming markets evolve, Corsair remains focused on performance-driven design and expanding its portfolio of next-generation hardware and software solutions.
