Kuroutoshikou PC brand rebranding to Crowxis

Overview

CFD Sales Co., Ltd. announced that its custom PC brand, Kuroutoshikou, is rebranding to Crowxis. The name combines the mythological Yatagarasu (a crow) with the word ‘axis’ to reflect a mission of ‘Providing a reliable axis for PC selection.’

Initial announcements indicated that the new brand would unveil its product lineup, including SSDs, graphics cards, and power supply units, at the Tokyo Game Show 2026. Following the event, CFD Sales President Koji Mitani clarified that the rebranding aims to lower the ‘psychological barrier’ for consumers, as the original name was often viewed as being intended only for advanced users.

The transition includes several global partnerships for new product lines, such as GeForce graphics cards with COLORFUL, Radeon products with PowerColor and TUL, and DDR5 memory with Team Group. Additionally, the brand plans to expand into ergonomic office chairs through a collaboration with ErgoHuman, with launches expected in January 2027.
