Just picked up the Corsair Vengeance i5100 Gaming PC with the Intel i9-14900KF and RTX 4080 Super, and after spending some time with it, I can confidently say this thing is an absolute beast for both gaming and content creation. The i5100 comes in a sleek, modern case with just enough RGB lighting to look cool without being over the top. The build quality is impressive—everything feels premium, and the layout is really clean. I love the cable management, especially with the MSI Project Zero motherboard that keeps everything tucked away for great airflow. Performance-wise, it’s top-notch. The Intel i9 CPU easily handles anything I throw at it. Gaming on the RTX 4080 Super at 1440p is super smooth as I'm using a 34-inch ultrawide. When it comes to content creation, it’s also a workhorse. Editing large videos and multi-layer photo projects is a breeze thanks to the 32GB DDR5 and the fast NVMe SSD. I use apps like Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, and Photoshop, and they all run incredibly smoothly on this system. What used to be time-consuming tasks now get done in no time. The cooling setup is solid too. The fans spin up when you first boot up and with so many fans in the case, it has a nice rush of air during boot up. The RGB profiles are very eye catching and I have cycled through the different Mural options but I normally like to keep them in all white mode most of the time. The 360mm radiator keeps the CPU temps in check, even when I’m pushing the system hard. And despite all that power, it’s surprisingly quiet—even during intense gaming sessions. Definitely a win in my book. Corsair’s iCUE software is easy to use since I like the Murals options, plus it gives you detailed system monitoring tools. You can keep an eye on temps and fan speeds without any hassle, which is nice if you like having that extra control. All in all, this system is a powerhouse. Whether you're a gamer who wants high-end performance or a content creator looking for reliable horsepower, this system checks all the boxes. Read more

So this has been an interesting but ultimately awesome purchase. When the pc initially arrived I immediately had a major problem. I inspected the inside of the case and everything appeared fine. So I powered it up and noticed that my case fans and cooler did not power on. I inspected things and at first could not figure out the problem. This was my first pc built entirely from Corsair parts and was not familiar with the icue control box. Well if you run into this issue just know that most everything in your new pc is controlled by one tiny box in the back of the case. It appeared plugged in but after closer inspection the power cable was not fully attached causing this problem. After plugging it back in the system booted beautifully and then I had one other small issue. The icue software was not behaving right which caused the fans not to spin up when the of was under load. A reinstall of the software fixed this and now this pc runs like a champ. This thing stays remarkably cool and quiet. Even if you crank the fans it isn’t bad. And it runs every game you can throw at it maxed out. Read more

Bought a prebuilt because I don’t have time to build one. Received this set it up, powers on then powers down lights flashing. So figured something came loose in shipping. Check all my connections make sure everything is seated and snug. Retry powers on then off lights flashing. Notice vga light on mother board. Look at the gpu. So the support bracket for the gpu holds the gpu from seating all the way in. Gpu metal frame bent and screw pulled from gpu frame. Bend back frame (very carefully) reseat gpu, have to bend mounting bracket back in place, reattach bracket. Turn it on works. This could have been avoided easily with a foam insert in the case to keep everything from moving. So if you do purchase this and have the same issue hope it helps. Pretty disappointed in the way I received this product. Read more

The computer is top notch however when shipped, there was zero packing material inside the case as is require and shown in the unpacking info sheet. As a result the video card, ram chips and two fans were disconnected and floating around inside the case. The back bar the gives weight support to the video card was broken at the top and bottom connectors. The back of case plate for the video card was knocked out entirely. I had to spend 2 hours reassembling the thing and jury rigged the weight support until I can get a replacement bracket. Honestly I’ve never seen this much damage from shipping before and all that was required to prevent all of this was proper packing. I don’t know if this is amazons fail or Corsair’s but suspect the Corsair as it was interior packaging that was missing. I’m putting in a call to them Monday. Everything works but my concern is possible failure down the road due to this mess. Read more
