Great quality gaming keyboard!
|Posted .Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5as a membrane keyboard user (logitech/microsoft) because they were cheaper in price. i decided to check this one out and after checking out reviews i made my decision and got this one since it was also on sale. this is my first gaming mechanical keyboard, i already had corsair's mouse and mouse pad. so i decided to complete the look with this keyboard. the noise this keyboard makes when i type or game doesn't bother me. but others might feel different. this keyboard comes with a detachable wrist support and it also comes with textured performance keycaps and puller for those that game or just want a different look. and yes! it requires 2 USB ports. you also will need to download corsair's iCUE software to customized this keyboard or to turn off the lights.

Amazing low profile and fast keyboard!!

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5Pros mentioned:Design, Lighting, ProfileCons mentioned:Cable, UsbThe 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.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Recently 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.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Looking for a backlit keyboard for business since I frequently work at night. Only 1 backlit keyboard in the Business section so headed for the gaming section and Ta Da - found my Corsair. They have a number of backlit units - all for differing touch and response requirements. Love this unit for soft touch and quiet response.

Q: QuestionWhat is the difference between this model and the 170 dollar model They sell? I’m assuming it’s newer but what do you get?
Asked by Julio.
- A:Answer Hi Julio, This model uses low profile switches and keycaps, meaning that the overall height of the keys and the depth you press is reduced. This allows for a sleek keyboard. -Brian
Answered by Corsair Art
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 Hoyt.
- 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.
