CORSAIR Expands Its Gaming Ecosystem at Computex 2026 with Advanced Hall Effect Technology, Stream Deck-Integrated Performance, and All-Day Audio
CLIPPER PRO MINI 60, NIGHTSWORD v2 WIRELESS SD, HS35 v3 WIRELESS, and HS35 v3 give competitive gamers, creators, and everyday players smarter inputs, deeper control, and immersive audio for all their various needs.
CORSAIR® (Nasdaq: CRSR), a leading global developer and manufacturer of high-performance gear and technology for gamers, content creators, and PC enthusiasts, today unveiled four new gaming peripherals at Computex 2026. The CLIPPER PRO MINI 60 Hall Effect Gaming Keyboard, the NIGHTSWORD v2 WIRELESS SD Stream Deck Gaming Mouse, the HS35 v3 WIRELESS Gaming Headset, and the HS35 v3 Gaming Headset. These products are all adaptable and able to change with players' needs, giving them different avenues of control, customization, and comfort to experiment with.
“Competitive gamers traditionally gravitate toward smaller keyboards, and we wanted to deliver a more full-size and feature rich experience for 60% keyboard lovers,” said Tobias Brinkmann, SVP and GM of Gaming at CORSAIR. “The CLIPPER PRO MINI 60 comes with defining, new Hall Effect customization features like Multi Action, Tap Lock, and Smart Tap. The Stream Deck enabled NIGHTSWORD v2 WIRELESS SD and the feature-packed HS35 v3 headset are also launching, reflecting CORSAIR’s commitment to building gear that grows with its players, delivering control and versatility that opens new ways to play, create, and perform.”
CLIPPER PRO MINI 60 Hall Effect Gaming Keyboard
Built for competitive gamers who rely on speed and responsiveness, the CLIPPER PRO MINI 60 packs advanced Hall Effect performance into a 60% layout that clears the desk for wide mouse sweeps and unrestricted movement. It brings together a new generation of Hall Effect features and the raw competitive speed of Rapid Trigger and FlashTap SOCD in a compact, portable build.
The CLIPPER PRO MINI 60 excels at its small size due to the suite of Hall Effect switch features, giving users the full command range of a larger board.
- Multi Action maps up to four distinct actions to a single key across its press and release travel, condensing multi-step combos or ability chains into one precise movement.
- Tap Lock turns long-held actions like crouch or throttle into effortless toggles, keeping fingers free for faster inputs elsewhere.
- Smart Tap assigns separate actions to a quick tap versus a held press on any key, making it straightforward to restore arrow keys, function shortcuts, or custom in-game binds to the compact layout without reaching for FN combinations.
- CORSAIR MGX HYPERDRIVE CORE magnetic switches drive the powerful new features. As the first CORSAIR keyboard with these new switches, players will enjoy adjustable actuation from 0.2mm to 3.8mm with consistent performance across 100 million keystrokes. A square stem structure reduces wobble for crisper switch feel and more precise actuation.
Speed and reaction time are key, and CORSAIR Rapid Trigger eliminates the fixed reset point found on standard mechanical keyboards. This enables the switch to re-actuate after as little as 0.1mm of upward travel, critical for rapid-fire taps, counter-strafing, or any situation where the gap between your last move and your next one needs to disappear. FlashTap SOCD handling puts you in control of how opposing directional inputs resolve, delivering clean, consistent movement for jiggle peeking, rapid turning, and the kind of mechanical precision competitive FPS games demand. This is all run on CORSAIR AXON 8,000Hz hyper-polling technology, registering inputs up to 8x faster than standard gaming keyboards.
The CLIPPER PRO MINI 60 carries an IP57 rating* for water and dust resistance and dual-layer sound dampening for clean typing acoustics. Customize everything through CORSAIR Web Hub, a browser-based utility that requires no software installation. Adjust Hall Effect settings, map keys, build RGB profiles, download firmware updates, and save up to five onboard profiles through an intuitive interface. The included detachable USB-C cable supports play on PC, Mac, Xbox, and PlayStation.
CORSAIR is also bringing its advanced Hall Effect toolkit to the VANGUARD PRO 96 via a software update, expanding their latest performance innovations across their ever-growing magnetic keyboard lineup.

Back in Taiwan to Attend Computex 2026
One of the great parts of running a tech related website is attending trade shows to learn about new trends and see what hardware may soon be available. If you happen to follow my travels I afford myself two trips a year, CES or the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas and Computex in Taiwan. CES is great because it is close to where I live and may of the vendors I work with are there or around the event in area hotels. Sadly, CES has very little to do with what I cover on Hardware Asylum and is where Computex tends to do much better.
Computex started as a sales related trade show to attract international visitors looking to buy electronics hardware and services. The show was opened up to media to help promote the event and is where I got involved in the early 2000’s. Computex back then was a very different show, it felt small due to the location but was always packed with people. Since then the show has moved to larger facilities allowing vendors to expand the sizes of their booths and is when the show changed from a vendor and sales focus to marketing and presentation. The items are still there but, the purpose to attend is more about networking and making contacts over something a media person would report on.
This year for Computex 2026 the show has expanded once again to encompass the two Nangang Exhibition buildings with additional exhibits at the World Trade Center. The Taiwan World Trade Center has been the host of Computex since I first started attending and brings back fond memories of shoulder to shoulder crowds and how you can quickly lose people when attempting to migrate the sea of people.
Sadly, the additional “halls” that were part of Computex have since been demolished to make way for new shopping centers and whatever this round skyscraper will eventually become. This location is one of the last buildings associated with Computex from when I first started visiting and is a reminder of how fast things change in the world of technology.

Unlock Superior Cooling with the VORTEX Water Block
To further push thermal performance, Origin Code introduces a dedicated watercooling module engineered exclusively for the Vortex DDR5 series. Designed for custom liquid cooling systems, this solution delivers up to 50% improved heat dissipation efficiency, enabling greater thermal headroom and sustained stability under intensive workloads. The module adopts a 2-inlet, 1-outlet flow design with standard G1/4 threads, ensuring efficient coolant circulation across the module.
Beyond performance, the water block integrates a 178° wide-view LCD display (222 × 480 resolution, 60 Hz refresh rate), offering clear visual feedback from multiple angles while adding a refined, high-end aesthetic to advanced PC builds. Users can fully customize the experience via dedicated software, allowing for real-time monitoring of system temperatures, clock speeds, and other vital hardware metrics. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, it reflects Origin Code’s commitment to both engineering precision and premium design.
Note: The Vortex watercooling module is designed exclusively for use with Vortex DDR5 memory and must be integrated into a complete custom liquid cooling loop to provide active cooling. When used independently, it functions as a display module only and does not deliver thermal benefits.
