Hardware Hardware 28 - Chatting with Corsair

Paul, James and Harry go a little peripheral crazy in this week's hardware podcast, but that's understandable as they're joined by special guest Reuben Mookerjee, vice president of Corsair's Component division...

Another long Sunday at work, another pod cast

 

Thermaltake girl sounds so depressed

 

Hehe, another "over 9000" joke

 

Sounds sad, but since winning the BitTech Corsair prize last year, and having problems with what I won (H50 cooler decided to leak over my computer), Corsair refuse to deal with it (actually ignored me), I am no longer interested in anything to do with Corsair.
Maybe during this type of thing, they should be asked about problems end users have with their products, whether purchased or won in prizes.

 

That does sound bad Bazz... Also had problems with one of their products (Nova 2 SSD) and after plenty of research others have had the same problem and Corsair refuse to do anything about it, wont even aknowledge its a problem

 

LOL speaking of thermaltake girl, sounds a bit chavvy dun she? I listened to her accent when she ebuyer, and it made me think of catherine tate am i bovered etc xD

 

*rage* *when she SAID*

 

roid rage.. what ever happened to that domino liquid cooler, remember hearing that guy was flying around paying everyone off xD like the huang of closed loop water cooling

did they go out of business? think corsair good at psu's.. have 2 of em myself- and the memory seems to last without tinkering

have to see with the mouse and all that other stuff, keyboard

 

The girl on TT add really sounds not very encouraging...and they do have nice products out there. Howw do you take part in the weekly competition?

 

I can understand if I was a repeat RMA'er but this was the first Corsair products I had ever had, and I was happy with them, until the H50 decided to dump itself over my PC.

What makes me laugh, is that this was a promotional type thing, through BitTech and Corsair, and neither seem to be interested, but hey.

Won for free, so shouldn't expect anything more than that, just a shame that Corsair products caused me to update my system due to damage, which means I was out of pocket, so not really a freebee.

Still, don't touch Corsair anymore, using competitors products which seem to be 'better'!

 

that's the hazard with those closed loop coolers.. that story has been told over and over on the internet when the pump fails and the liquid explodes- mainly on the domino though

it's almost a joke how much this actually happens.. seems noone wants to cover it though

 

An excellent podcast. Very interesting.

 

Great podcast, very interesting to hear someone from Corsair who really knows what they're talking about.

 

as you have seen bulldozer, does that mean you now have it in house, if yes reply with an obscure reference so noone from AMD knows if you said yes or no

 

offtopic but I would like to get this on Zune...

 

Finally, got this old topic. I didn't want to open a new one. I know that podcasting is a dying janra, but are you going to make more? There's been quite a while with no hardware podcast. Say if it over with the podcasts.
