The Corsair Voyager A1600 arrived in 2022 as Corsair's first laptop, built for gamers and streamers who wanted a portable AMD Advantage machine without piecing together components from separate board partners. It paired a Ryzen 6000 series processor with dedicated Radeon graphics inside a chassis thinner than most gaming laptops with comparable hardware. Corsair sold it directly, which keeps used units fairly traceable, and its per-key RGB keyboard and 165Hz QHD+ panel still read as premium hardware years later. If the hinge is tight, the screen is bright, and the keyboard lights up, this is a laptop worth turning into cash rather than into a drawer. Pick your processor configuration and condition above for a live offer, then see how the process works to find out what happens between shipping it and getting paid. Corsair never followed up with a second laptop, which keeps a working Voyager A1600 in steady demand — check our page to sell your gaming laptop for what else qualifies.

Confirm you have the Voyager A1600

The fastest way to check is inside Windows itself. Press Windows key + R, type dxdiag, and press enter to see the exact processor, graphics, and memory Windows detects. Typing msinfo32 in the same Run box shows the full system model string. Corsair's iCUE software, if installed, also displays the CPU tier and RAM/storage totals on its dashboard. The sticker on the underside of the chassis lists the SKU Corsair assigned at the factory.

Ryzen 7 configuration

  • AMD Ryzen 7 6800HS processor
  • Typically paired with 16GB memory
  • Entry point into the Voyager A1600 line

Ryzen 9 configuration

  • AMD Ryzen 9 6900HS processor
  • Typically paired with 32GB memory and larger storage
  • Sold as the higher-tier build, sometimes marketed as a Founders Edition

Prefer a visual check? Every Voyager A1600 shares the same black chassis with a sail-mark Corsair logo on the lid, a full per-key RGB keyboard, and a 16-inch display with slim, even bezels. There is no second Corsair laptop line to confuse it with — if the lid says Corsair and it is a laptop, it is this one.

Core hardware configurations

Processor

  • AMD Ryzen 7 6000 series (Ryzen 7 6800HS)
  • AMD Ryzen 9 6000 series (Ryzen 9 6900HS)
  • The Ryzen 9 build commands the stronger offer of the two

Graphics

  • AMD Radeon RX 6800M dedicated graphics
  • Part of AMD's Advantage design, tuned to work alongside the Ryzen APU rather than sit as a bolt-on discrete GPU

Memory

  • LPDDR5 memory, soldered to the board
  • 16GB on the Ryzen 7 configuration, 32GB on the Ryzen 9 configuration
  • Not user-upgradable after purchase

Storage

  • NVMe PCIe SSD, sold in multiple capacities
  • Dual M.2 slots on most units, with a second slot open for expansion
  • A larger factory storage tier moves the resale value more than almost any other single spec

Display & audio

Display

16-inch QHD+ panel running at 165Hz with AMD FreeSync Premium, built for smooth motion in games rather than maximum color accuracy for editing work.

Audio

Stereo speaker pair tuned for clarity at gaming volumes, paired with a combo headphone and microphone jack for headsets.

Keyboard & lighting

Per-key RGB backlighting controlled through Corsair's iCUE software, matching the lighting ecosystem Corsair sells for its desktop peripherals.

Ports & connectivity

The Voyager A1600 keeps a workable spread of physical ports for a slim 16-inch chassis, backed by current wireless standards.

Wired
  • USB4 / USB-C with DisplayPort and power delivery
  • USB-A ports
  • HDMI output
  • microSD card reader
  • 3.5mm headphone/microphone combo jack
Wireless
  • Wi-Fi 6E
  • Bluetooth

Battery, build & more

Battery

Built-in, non-removable battery. AMD's Smart Shift and Smart Access Memory tuning between the Ryzen APU and Radeon GPU helps stretch runtime outside of gaming sessions, though it drains quickly under full load like any 16-inch gaming laptop.

Build

Aluminum-topped chassis in black, built noticeably thinner than most gaming laptops with comparable graphics hardware at launch.

Software

Ships with Windows and Corsair's iCUE suite for lighting, fan curves, and performance profiles.

Market positioning

Corsair built the Voyager A1600 as its first and, to date, only laptop line. It never got a direct successor, which keeps working units in steady demand among buyers who want the AMD Advantage combination without shopping a board partner's SKU list.

Frequently asked questions

01 How do I find the model number / exact configuration?
There is no separate model number line the way phones have sub-SKUs — Corsair sold the Voyager A1600 as a single laptop with two processor tiers. Press Windows key + R, type dxdiag, and check the System tab for the processor and installed memory. Typing msinfo32 in the same Run box shows the full system model string. Corsair's iCUE app, if installed, also reports CPU and RAM on its dashboard. The sticker on the bottom panel lists the factory SKU Corsair assigned at build time, which should match the configuration you select above.
02 How do I tell it apart from the other Voyager A1600 configuration?
The two configurations look identical from the outside, so the difference lives inside. Run dxdiag (Windows key + R, then dxdiag) and check the processor line: Ryzen 7 6800HS is the base configuration, Ryzen 9 6900HS is the higher tier, usually paired with more memory and a larger SSD. Both use the same Radeon RX 6800M graphics, the same 16-inch 165Hz display, and the same chassis, so a glance at the outside will not settle it. If Windows will not boot, the BIOS setup screen, reached by pressing Del or F2 at startup, reports the processor before the operating system loads.
03 Can I sell it with damage or a locked account?
Yes, in most cases. A cracked screen, a battery that no longer holds charge, or a unit that will not power on can still be sold — the condition picker above accounts for exactly this, and the quote adjusts to match what you describe. Before shipping, sign out of your Microsoft account and remove the device from it under Settings → Accounts, and if BitLocker is enabled, either suspend it or fully decrypt the drive so the next owner can access it. A laptop still locked to your Microsoft account cannot be resold and will come back to you unpaid.
04 What raises the trade-in value the most?
The processor and memory configuration matter most, since a Ryzen 9 build with 32GB of memory and a larger SSD outsells the base Ryzen 7 configuration. Beyond that, condition carries real weight: a keyboard with all RGB zones working, a display free of dead pixels or lid flex marks, and a battery that still holds a reasonable charge all push the offer up. Having the original charger and box helps too, though it is not required. Damage anywhere on the hinge or chassis tends to matter more on a laptop this thin than it would on a bulkier design.
05 How do I erase it and remove my accounts, and how do I get paid?
Back up anything you want to keep, then open Settings → System → Recovery and choose Reset this PC, selecting the option to remove everything and clean the drive. Before that finishes, go to Settings → Accounts and remove the laptop from your Microsoft account, and if BitLocker is turned on, suspend or decrypt it so the reset completes cleanly. Once the laptop is wiped and signed out, box it up. Shipping is free and insured, and payment goes out after our team tests the unit, sent by PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, CashApp, or check. Full details on how we handle wiped drives are in our data erasure protocols.
