Great Gaming and Everyday Use!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This keyboard has been great for me. Gaming is really nice with these switches as well as quiet for a non membrane keyboard. I really appreciate the volume control "roller" at the top right of the keyboard with the mute button. The low profile for a full size keyboard has been an added bonus I didn't know I needed. Paired with the iCUE software makes customization a breeze! Thank you Corsair for another great product!

No Clickety Clack! Love color combinations, too!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the first time I have experienced this brand and I must say that I love it. I'm not a gamer, by any means. In fact, I don't play any games at all. I bought this keyboard because it helps me to see when I'm working at night. Since the shelter in place order, I have been working from home and I find that I work more at night than I do during the day. So, when I don't want to have the lights on full brightness, this helps me to make sure I am on the right keys. I really like that I can change the color combination. My laptop has built in lights, but they are white and it's a bit irritating when I'm working in a dark room. This way, I can choose a soothing color or leave it in it's muli-color state. It has various settings and the lights have different motion modes to choose from. I prefer the slow sweeping motion. One thing that I had no clue about, even though I read it before buying it is the low profile keys. I am not a fan of this. There is no room for error with this type of keyboard. So, for those who are not aware, it means that the keys are not as high as a regular keyboard and the distance for the key to travel, when pressed, is much less than the typical keyboard. So, this means you can barely touch a key and that letter will pop up on your screen immediately. So, for example, if I mean to strike the letter "J" and I slightly touch the "H", both letters will show up! This creates so many typos. I have long fingers and they tend to travel more, so the likelihood of me accidentally touching other keys is high. So, if you are not precise in your key strokes, the low profile keyboard may not be for you. I do however like that this keyboard does not clickety clack like the previous gaming back-lit keyboard I had. OMG, it was atrocious all the noise I would make, while working at night. This one is fairly quiet and I really like that. All in all, I'm happy with my purchase. I can't give any less of a score than 5 stars. The low profile does what it's supposed to do, which is take less time and effort to press a key for a result. I simply didn't know what that meant in terms of practical work usage. I would suspect this keyboard would be gamers heaven. Oh! It also has a usb port on the back of the keyboard where you can plug in your mouse, if that's something you would like. I personally use it for a small USB-C cable for my phone. You still have to plug in the additional usb cable that is on the keyboard, to the back of your computer, so you can have connection/power to to the USB port @ the back of the keyboard, as you can see in the pictures.

Awesome keyboard!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the low profile keyboard. Has beautiful rgb lighting. I chose this low profile keyboard so I can game while the baby sleeps. Wrist rest it comes with is a plastic attachment. It’s not the best, but it gets the job done. I think if you were to buy another wrist rest it might be higher than the keyboard considering I have a hyperx cloud wrist rest I don’t use anymore because it’s too high (As you can see in the second photo. Keyboard is pricy in my opinion, so I waited to buy this when it came on sale. But the keyboard is great and I couldn’t be any happier with it

Great keyboard!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a low profile keyboard for my new PC. I’ve been an apple user for a long time and transitioned into PC gaming, so this one is a nice transition into mechanical keyboards but with that slight low profile which makes it super comfortable. I do love the RGB and the way it syncs with the rest of my Corsair RGB products

Amazing
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Recently this keyboard was on sale for $100 and I jumped on it. For the last year or two I have been using the Razer Ornata Chroma and I really started to hate it. It was crazy loud and the switches are these mecha membrane that have these little pieces of metal in them that I found would bend really bad and make it hard to press certain keys or they would feel different and made it uncomfortable to type. After buy this a few days ago I have been using it nonstop and it's amazing. Sounds good, feels good, I have noticed a difference when playing CSGO and other games. Really can't recommend it enough.

Amazing low profile and fast keyboard!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The keyboard is very fast compared to my old Logitech G15 keyboard that I replaced with this. In fact its too fast that I'm getting used to using it. When I'm typing it's great other then the spacing is different then my old keyboard too. For gaming it is fast and responsive where I don't have to press as hard as before. RGB lighting is awesome looking and love how you can customize it. The software is not the easiest to work with it isn't impossible either just need to play around with it. You can DL custom scripts so you don't have to mess with the customizing. On Corsairs site (forums) they have a couple of links to 2 customizing web sites. USB cable Is one cable but splits to 2 USB cables. I'm using this on a laptop which is already limited ports, but luckily I have a Sabrent 10 port USB hub. Rather not have that port used up for no reason. I use a Bluetooth mouse so I don't need the port behind the keyboard. But it's there if its needed. Why 4 stars? The software is taking some time to figure out and the USB passthrough. Other then that this is a great keyboard and would recommend it to anyone wanting a mechanical keyboard for gaming.

The most bang for your buck
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Usually using the reg profile k70 and wanted to use a low profile for work. Have been using the low profile exclusively for work and can go for an entire day being at the desk without my wrists hurting at any point. Love my K70 and can't recommend another keyboard for the price.

Amazing Quality Keyboard
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very responsive. Very sleek. Very Clean design. made with quality materials. RGBs are nice and bright and smooth when transitioning to any color even black (off) to white. I would certainly recommend this for anyone who doesn’t need a tactical feel and just a nice very responsive keyboard made out of quality materials.

Q: QuestionIs internet connectivity required to install and maintain the configuration or can the installation and drivers be downloaded and installed on an off line computer?
Asked by Gomer.
- A:Answer There are a few built-in profiles, but to get the full utility of the lighting software, iCue, they must be downloaded from the Corsair Website. If you just want it to light up, that can be done offline. If you want to have full personalization, you’re going to need internet.
