CES 2023: Coolermaster – OMG a SHOE PC!
Celebrating 30 years in the gaming industry, Cooler Master – a name well known in the industry – is here to bring you an extravagant new experience during CES 2023. Cooler Master will be showcasing…FIFTY… or 50…or FIVE ZERO (49+1) products! This showcase aims to take things Cooler Master has been known for over the years such as their quality, performance, amazing products, and ideas into a modern yet, more personal experience (said to be extravagant, in fact). Going through all of this has me all sorts of excited – read on and you will be able to feel it too! Enthusiasts, prepare your popcorn.
Tldr; yes there is a shoe PC that we will be able to buy. Scroll down for more!
Cases, Peripherals, Cooling, Power – and SYSTEMS?!!
Cooler Master is taking a leap into the PC prebuild market and not in the usual way. They will present three lines at CES: Be Excellent, Be Different and
Be Creative.
The Be Excellent systems excel in thermal performance with powerful CPU and GPU capabilities. The Be Different products feature the Shark X, Sneaker X and Mini X, which focus on individuality. The Be Creative lineup will launch with the limited-edition Cosmos Infinity 30th Anniversary PC. So why is that different? Plenty of companies make PCs, right? Check out these photos:
These are functional PCs. Those are cases folks. I don’t really need to say more, those images speak for themselves. Welcome to the PC build market, Cooler Master! *cough* Make a Triforce PC for me please.
Peripherals and Components to Watch For
We do not have images or full details of every item yet. Here are some things (and a few images) of what we do know:
Cooler Master ORB X, an immersive multi-purpose station, fulfils diversified needs for work, entertainment and gaming with a new level of comfort and luxury. ORB X elevates users’ visual, audio, and comfort experiences in a semi-enclosed space for enhanced immersion.
Cooler Master Synk X, a cross-platform haptic chair, creates a new way to immerse yourself in a lifelike entertainment experience. Real-time tactile experiences enable users to feel what is taking place in virtual reality.
Motion 1 is the world’s first haptic engine gaming chair developed in collaboration with D-BOX, a worldwide leader in haptic technology. Motion 1 adds realistic feedback to enhance your gaming and entertainment enjoyment.
The MK770 is Cooler Master’s CES centerpiece, a new hybrid wireless mechanical keyboard engineered and designed for enthusiasts. It’s the first gasket-mounted keyboard made by Cooler Master, a construction style that offers a cleaner sound profile as well as flexible typing feel. In addition, it has all the features mechanical keyboard collectors and users love: Kailh Box V2 switches, hot swappable switch capability, and a 3-way precision wheel. The MK770 will be available with PBT double shot keycaps in a variety of fun, unique color patterns to complement anyone’s individuality.

Beyond this keyboard, Cooler Master is bringing us a long list of other products. Here are some of them:
The Stream Lux is a full-spectrum LED light that provides proper lighting for anyone on-camera. Ideal for streamers, gamers, content creators and remote workers, it’s calibrated to be as natural looking as possible.
The Stream Lucid is a USB-C mic that enables clear, high-quality audio for livestreams, video and audio recording. A built-in filter reduces popping and static, while USB-C connectivity ensures plug-and-play capability with virtually all PCs, Macs and consoles.
The Stream Origins records your greatest gaming victories with supreme ease. Simple USB connection to a PC or Mac enables instant plug-and-play capture capabilities with every next-gen console, recording up to 4K 60fps HDR.
Cooler Master’s second run of limited-edition Sakura peripherals includes some of their most popular products released this past year. This includes the CK721 mechanical keyboard, the MM712 lightweight mouse and the MP511 XL mousepad — all adorned in a beautiful striking cherry blossom pink.
The SH711 Headset puts Cooler Master’s focus on the music and listening experience. The wireless headset is engineered with ANC and a special dual-chamber design with 40mm speakers to deliver premium audio quality in a luxury package.
The MH731 Headset continues to focus on audiophile needs with a headset designed to deliver high fidelity above anything else. With a 3.5mm connection, it’s an analog headset with a detachable boom microphone for optimal audio quality. A closed-back design and 50mm speakers deliver dynamic sound for maximum realism, while a broadcast-quality boom microphone offers crystal-clear audio for daily needs like livestreaming, in-game chats, listening to music and movies, and more.
That is not all, but a nice look at what to expect from Cooler Master at CES this year. I cannot wait to get my hands on some of these knowing the quality that Cooler Master brings us!
