Over the years, we’ve created many cool innovations and new technologies. Our SHIFT PSUs, our modular gaming desks, and yes, SLIPSTREAM WIRELESS. Given that one of SLIPSTREAM’s best features is the ability to pair multiple products to a single dongle, we’re going to give you a complete list of the CORSAIR products that have SLIPSTREAM compatibility. You can find this list at the bottom of the page, but first, what exactly is SLIPSTREAM?
SLIPSTREAM is our wireless technology which is sort of an amped-up version of the 2.4GHz wireless connectivity that USB dongles have been using for a while now. However, unlike traditional 2.4GHz, SLIPSTREAM is more reliable, faster, and has greater signal range. It also uses a technology called IFS (Intelligent Frequency Shift) that dynamically scans the spectrum twice per millisecond so that the signal remains at its fastest. Our favorite small Tech Tips man explains more below.
The other, perhaps more impressive aspect of SLIPSTREAM is its ability to handle up to three compatible products at the same time, using just one dongle. This means your headset, mouse, and keyboard can all connect to your PC simultaneously, only taking up one of your precious USB ports. We’ve actually written a dedicated guide on how to set up multipoint you can read if your CORSAIR stuff is compatible. Speaking of which:
For all the ins and outs, including some troubleshooting tips, our FAQ article on the support site will help.
OK, if you’re after the USB-saving, clutter-removing benefits of SLIPSTREAM, here are the CORSAIR products that support it. (At time of writing).
