Corsair just unveiled its Voyager a1600 AMD Advantage Edition streaming laptop. It runs on an AMD Ryzen 6000-series processor paired with AMD Radeon RX 6800M mobile graphics. It also features a unique row of "S-Keys" that can control streams.
The Corsair Voyager a1600 has a 16-inch 2560 x 1600 QHD IPS display with a 240Hz refresh rate. It supports AMD FreeSync Premium as well.
The Voyager a1600 has specs that compare well to those of the best gaming laptops, but Corsair also added some unique characteristics that make the device better for streaming.
