The Corsair Community has web pages that highlight Corsair's LAN party sponsorship program and feature pictures and info on some of the more than 100 LAN parties world-wide that Corsair has recently sponsored. The LAN party page invites LAN party organizers to apply for Corsair sponsorship through an easy on-line application form. Said one happy LAN party organizer, "Our LAN party was a great success and I just wanted to let you know how much LogicLAN appreciated the t-shirts and mouse pads you sent to us. They went out like hotcakes to all the gamers that ttended." --Tristan, Logiclan. Corsair intends to continue sponsoring dozens of LAN parties per month, and this section of the Corsair Community will be the focal point for LAN sponsorships.
The Case Modding section of the Corsair Community spotlights a few incredible modded systems from master modders like Paul Capello (the Matrix:
Regenerator) and Jeffrey Stephenson (the Humidor). "I'm honored to be a part of this exciting new web page for you folks. It's terrific that companies like Corsair take recognition of the modders and this new art form; without your support these amazing mods could not be possible", said Paul Capello at TheBestCaseScenario.com. In addition, Corsair announced a new Mod of the Month contest. Case modders are invited to submit pictures and specs on their rigs to vie for a spot on the Corsair Case Modding showcase page and for a free set of Corsair XMS Pro Series modules.
With the Corsair Community Gaming Teams page the company announced the sponsorship of two top ranked professional gaming clans, Team SK (Schroet
Kommando) and Team 64.AMD. Team SK is the #1 ranked Counter Strike team in the world, and has earned that ranking by, among other major victories, winning two consecutive CPL championships. "We are very happy about this cooperation with Corsair Memory. They will provide us with the best memory products available for pro gamers", says Andreas "bds" Thorstensson at the SK office in Sweden. Both these clans have global competition schedules in
2004 that will be tracked on the Corsair Community website.
The complete Corsair Community site will go live on March 18 and can be accessed through Corsair's homepage, http://www.corsairmemory.com, or can be found at http://www.corsairmemory.com/corsair/community/. "We're extremely excited about the Corsair Community site and our sponsorship activities with LAN parties, modding experts and gaming gurus. We're glad for this opportunity to give back to the community that has made us famous" said Joe James, Marketing Director at Corsair. "Corsair has always been in close touch with our customers, and this will help us understand customer needs better than anybody", continued Mr. James.
The fourth cornerstone of the Corsair Community is Corsair's RAMGuy Forum which has already been active for several years and has tens of thousands of posts. The RAMguy Forum serves as a customer meeting point to share information and advice on Corsair products and computers in general. The RAMguy also serves as a pre-sales and post-sales customer support tool.
