Corsair today announced the launch of the Corsair ONE i500 PC, a compact powerhouse packed with cutting-edge components and boasting high-end performance for content creators, AI-savvy professionals, and gamers. The sleek, space-saving design houses up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 graphics card and Intel Core i9-14900K processor—both liquid cooled. Combined with next-gen DDR5 memory and 2 TB of NVMe SSD storage, the Corsair ONE i500 delivers the speed, storage, and reliability you'd expect from a high-end PC.

The Corsair ONE i500 PC is 30% smaller than a full-sized desktop PC but doesn't compromise on power. Modern liquid cooling delivers top-tier thermal efficiency, minimizing CPU and GPU temperatures while achieving faster performance, all while being noticeably quieter than traditional cooling. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 and 4080 SUPER graphics cards power a quantum leap in framerates and AI-powered graphics, while Intel 14th Gen CPU architecture makes sure you game and multitask without compromise.



The sleek, aluminium case with FSC-Certified real wood panels—each with one-of-one natural grain—fits beautifully into any modern workspace or gaming setup. Future upgradability is possible with the Corsair ONE i500 PC using industry standard PCIe, RAM, and SSD slots, allowing you to craft a system as unique as your ambitions. The Corsair ONE ORIGIN Edition can be customized with up to 192 GB of DDR5 memory and 24 TB of storage to elevate creative, multitasking, and gaming experiences. The configurator also offers options to add in capture cards, network cards, audio cards, USB expansion cards, and more.

Featuring customizable underglow and front-panel lighting, the Corsair ONE i500 gives you the power to personalize your setup in seconds. A touch-sensor spotlight for the rear I/O will help you find the wide array of high-performance connectivity options.

When the first generation of Corsair ONE PC was launched, we set a new standard in the world of compact, performance PCs. This new generation raises the bar even higher, with incredible raw speed and efficiency in a sleek and modern look. We are also offering the choice of two colors available from the Corsair webstore and select retailers: Wood Dark and Wood Bright.

The Corsair ONE i500 PC is packed with uncompromising performance in a compact case that powers through today's most demanding games and applications with ease, supported by ample memory and storage for all your needs.

Availability, Warranty, and Pricing
The Corsair ONE i500 PC is available immediately from the Corsair Webstore and Corsair authorized resellers and distributors.

Corsair ONE i500 PC is backed by a two-year warranty, alongside the Corsair worldwide customer service and technical support network.

When you get mildly excited as the entire case looks like a heatsink and think "Man, maybe they got heatpipes going right on the mainboard" or somethin...and see that's it's all decorative shit plastic that does NOTHING and will be impossible to keep clean.

And then find out the case is hot as hell.

How does this shit get into production?

Cool & Quiet... yeah about that.

Thanks for the review Der8auer :D

Not to mention the lack of VRM cooling on the GPU due to the cheap ass AIO block.

The Corsair ONE i500 PC is 30% smaller than a full-sized desktop PC but doesn't compromise on power.
But it does compromise, 14900k comes power limited.
Modern liquid cooling delivers top-tier thermal efficiency
It has cheap GPU block with no VRM cooling (not even passive)
minimizing CPU and GPU temperatures while achieving faster performance, all while being noticeably quieter than traditional cooling.
Expect it is noisy and basically not faster than any stock 4090+14900k combo

I mean I still give credit them for trying a small build with those parts but they shouldn't try to oversell it.

I dont like the case itself either as it looks like a "heavily" Fractal inspired.

Oh and ironically, the best thing about this PC that it does not use Corsair's own iCUE. :laugh:

People buying this have no idea . Think brick and mortar store where a parent walks in and buys something for sons birthday. That’s how corsair sells most of their junk

what's weird is the OLD models in this series used to run high end gear with one giant exhaust fan but 240 for the CPU and a 240 for the GPU both pulling in cold air from the sides - for a total of 480mm of slim low flow optimized rad.

This is a massive downgrade to that original design.

This is a massive downgrade to that original design.
Also old models offered both AMD and Intel CPU choices while this one just goes for unstable hot Intel CPUs on a deadend platform and then have audacity to mention upgradabilty in marketting material(both CPU and GPU are stuck, GPU thanks to proprietary cooling solution used).

Indeed, properly slated.

I would prefer to find an original CS1 and just upgrade it.

indeed.

There are so many poor desisions with this POS it reminded me of the"OnGoing" .... Dell Alienware disaster, its like these companies live in a bubble and/or never learn -

Only on PC cases. :D


But man that case looked pretty small in the marketing pics until I saw it next to an actual person in the review linked above. It probably can't get smaller for what it packs inside but still the marketing pics fooled me.

It's so you can put an i9 in there and have a PC case and incense all in one.

but does it have that toasted sandalwood smell? And the same high pitched whine of two AIO pumps fighting for their life at full RPM?

The sad reality is they're laughting their way to the bank to cash in the money of the continued sale of these terrible designs. People keep buying them so why spend man hours and retool the production line for a new design? :ohwell:
