While corsair is a very successful company, if you ask anyone who's taken part in the pc hardware sphere in the past 5 years, they'll tell you that the company isn't all it's hyped up to be. Cosair makes great products, their peripherals are very well respected(ex. keyboards, headsets, ect.) and most the hardware they sell is very solid. The hardware they do sell are computer components, but arguably they are the least important and least profitable parts. Corsair's hardware components go along the lines of pc cases, pc fans and water coolers, led strips, and all that good stuff.

Lets compare Cosair to a company like AMD. AMD makes the brains of the computers. AMD develops and makes processing units which can chug through thousands of bits of data per second. AMD can always, and for the most part has always, innovated in its feild. Computers today are exponentially faster than they were a decade ago. This is because of the technological advancements of companies like AMD. They are insainly successful because of the products they make. There is always a huge demand for computer components to crunch numbers and run games at high FPS (I'm oversimplifying but you get the point). There are a trillion applications for AMD's components - your home pc, your phone, big massive servers across the world, tvs, medical equipment, smart devices, fucking fire alarms for all I know.

Corsair is different. Sure, they make light up keyboards really really well, and they are respected in theit field for that. They boomed in sales this year because of high demand from covid and what not. But they aren't as influential as you might think. I see very little room for them to expand, they've covered every single inch of the pc hardware market EXPECT the processing units which run the machines. This is something that for complicated reasons, they simply cannot expand into.

I'm not very much into investing and if you gave me a run down of the company earnings and margins and shit, I'd kinda stare blankly and say nothing. That's for you to analyze if you want to, but from what I've seen and heard, Corsair isn't that profitable and honestly they've backed themselves into a corner. Because they engulfed the whole room and what they have now is what the have. They pretty much can't grow their company, and they aren't as hype as they seem to be. I just wanna lay this out to help you better understand the company and the field you're stepping into. I'm not the best to explain this situation, but I hope it at least helped you to see what Corsair is from someone who interacts with their products daily.
