Corsair has announced the worldwide launch of the TC80 gaming chair, a new addition to its lineup aimed at gamers, creators and everyday users. The chair focuses on long‑term comfort and durability, backed by more than 30 individual safety and reliability tests.

Corsair’s testing regime for the TC80 includes drop‑load, backrest load, seating durability, tilt‑mechanism and armrest‑cycle tests, alongside stability checks and swivel endurance testing. The chair meets both BIFMA X5.1 and EN 1335 standards, reflecting its focus on structural strength and ergonomic support.

The TC80 features a wide flat seat with plush padding, breathable fabric upholstery with leatherette accents, and a detachable neck pillow. Self‑levelling armrests adjust automatically as users recline, while a steel 5‑star base, 50mm casters and a steel Class 4 gas lift provide a stable foundation. Height adjustment spans 100mm, and the chair offers a smooth recline from 90° to 115° with continuous angle locking rather than preset positions. Recline tension can also be tuned to personal preference, and Corsair says assembly is designed to be quick and straightforward.

The TC80 launches in a single black fabric‑and‑leatherette finish and joins Corsair’s existing lineup alongside the TC100 RELAXED and TC500 LUXE. Pricing starts at £169.99/€179.90/$199.99, with regional variations listed on Corsair’s website. The chair is backed by a two‑year warranty.

KitGuru Says: The TC80 lands as Corsair’s most affordable gaming chair, offering a simpler feature set but a solid build and competitive pricing.

Herman Miller has expanded its gaming product lineup with the Coyl, a new motor-driven, height-adjustable desk. 

Herman Miller already has the Motia standing desk in its product line-up, but this one wasn't designed with gamers in mind. That changes with the Coyl, which has additional accessories for cable management, mounts for controllers and more.

The height adjustment system utilises a notched rotary dial modelled after audio equipment to deliver tactile feedback, paired with a dedicated digital display to control desk elevation down to precise settings. The coiled red power cable, which expands and contracts as the surface moves, feeds the built-in power strip. The back of the structure houses a perforated steel shroud designed to mount headset hooks and various device platforms.

The Coyl is available with four separate laminate top finishes (ash, walnut, white, and black) and two leg colours (white and black). Additional structural options include a full-length, fold-down cable management tray and a five-piece accessory bundle containing a planter, display shelf, cable clips, phone dock, and controller mount. Structural components are backed by a manufacturer's warranty of up to 12 years.

The pricing scales depending on the configured components, with the accessory bundle available as a separate upgrade. The desk alone costs $1,095, increasing to $1,495 with the cable tray and $1,635 with the shroud and the cable tray. Lastly, a fully loaded configuration (with accessory bundle) costs $1,825.

KitGuru says: The Coyl isn't cheap by any means, but that is to be expected from a Herman Miller product.
