“One of the things I first noticed about CORSAIR is how vocal their fans and consumers are about supporting their products,” said George “HotshotGG” Georgallidis, Founder of Counter Logic Gaming. “Sometimes I browse Reddit and the comments are always in support of how awesome CORSAIR is. It’s important to me that our fans feel like they’re getting value from the products they support and I feel confident CLG can depend on CORSAIR, a brand we believe in.”
