Computex 2022 is still providing us with the most exciting news. AMD’s press conference has been focused on its upcoming Ryzen 7000 chips, while Nvidia has yet to reveal its aces.

Meanwhile, when it came to opting to enter the laptop market, Corsair surprised everyone.

Specifically, through the Voyager a1600 AMD Advantage Edition, which comes with a Ryzen 9 6900HS CPU, AMD Radeon RX 6800M GPU, and all of the necessary streaming functionality.

They assure the organisation that they are aiming for fantastic results with Adobe After Effects or OBS Studio.

Furthermore, by utilising AMD Smart Access Memory, the ability to operate will be enhanced even further.

The Voyager a1600 includes a tiny steam chamber cooling mechanism that distributes heat evenly and is only 19.8 millimetres thick.

We have a 16-inch QHD+ IPS screen with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 and a refresh rate of 240 Hz for your display.

Of course, technologies like FreeSync Premium and AMD features will make an appearance.

The crowning achievement

Overall, the laptop’s major aim is a design that caters to streamers.

Ten touch-shortcut buttons appear at the top of the keyboard, as shown in the photographs.

It’s fully customisable and works with Elgato’s Stream Deck software, allowing you to perform many tasks with only a few keystrokes.

The camera, on the other hand, records sound using four noise-cancelling address microphones at 1080p resolution at 30 frames per second.

The keyboard, in turn, offers RGB illumination as well as two USB 4.0 connections and one 3.2 Type-C port.

Finally, if we like, we may add another degree of customisation to the Voyager a1600 with laser engraving or printing.

Of course, we’re still unsure when we’ll be able to get our hands on it and at what cost.
