Great keyboard minus the leds.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very responsive and functional keyboard but many of the LEDs are failing. Throughout the years It’s been my experience that many of the Corsair products with LEDs tend to fail or illuminate pink when choosing a white color.

Not for Production Work
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I gave it 2 stars because i do like the keyboard. However, there is a known bug in the firmware that causes it to regurgitate info that has been typed on it. It will just randomly start typing by itself and for someone like myself who does production work, this is a BIG problem. It is a known issue but thus far no update to the firmware has addressed the problem. So, i have to return it unfortunately. The keyboard is super fast and the clicky action is great. But an unreliable keyboard, and especially at this price, is unacceptable.

Keys Don't travel far
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Maybe it's just me. But the keys funny travel very far down which could be a good thing for some people. But it's not for me and has been difficult to get to used to

Posted .Hi,
Thank you for your feedback. If you'd prefer key switches with longer actuation distance, it would be recommended to look at our K70 RGB PRO keyboard with Cherry MX Browns, Blues, or Reds. The mentioned key switches have double the actuation distance (2mm) compared to our OPX key switches (1mm). If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out - we'd be happy to assist: help.corsair.com

Build quality is fairly bad.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.the switches themselves are fast, but the keycaps on the switches move around so much it almost feels like its broken. Every key especially ones with a "stabilizer" have more play than the little red joysticks that were in old IBM laptops. Even the flat media buttons feel like they could come off at any moment. Update: Just put some other keycaps on a few switches...its the keycaps that are garbage. They sit up way too high and have almost no structure to them. So if you plan on getting it then expect to drop a little more money on some decent keycaps.

K100
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The keys are very sensitive, which I can adjust to and is what I paid for. A bit noisier/clackier than I was expecting. But it seems my USB passthrough port has stopped working after a few weeks.

Cheap feel and low quality components!!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was excited to try this new keyboard and hoped that it would be a worthy replacement for my aging (3 year old) Razer Huntsman Elite V1 who's volume control has long since stopped working properly. Upon unboxing I noticed that it just wasn't near as heavy as my Razer and didn't feel good in the hand. I set it down on my desk and after plugging it in I tried typing on it and it just felt cheap and the switches appear to be exposed underneath the keys. Then I was greeted by difficulty in storing my lighting profile plus it caused icue to drop my dark core pro se profile. So I wipe both devices and start again and was able to store the profiles and thought that I was getting somewhere. I then started playing some videos and upon tapping the spacebar to pause I noticed that my video did not pause and was doing some strange things so I tapped the spacebar again. This time I noticed that it had stuck in the bottomed out position. I tried a persistent tapping and prying on it and was able to get it free. I then started tapping on it to see if it would do it again and lo and behold it stuck in the down position again. I immediately unplugged it and put it back into its box to return to Best Buy. This kb cost far too much for this kind of poor quality and I'm going to get the Huntsman Elite V2. If you're buying a kb or anything else do yourself a favor and try to go by the store and put your hands on them before you buy. No I would not recommend this keyboard to anybody.

Posted .Hi HappyShopper,
Sorry to hear about your experience. Were you using the K100 RGB with the included palm rest accessory? If so, the palm rest and keyboard would both need to be on a levelled surface to prevent the space bar getting stuck. For future reference, please feel free to contact us regarding any questions or issues, we'd be happy to help: support.corsair.com

Very average feeling for non-average price
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Big and clunky. Build quality feels overall bad for this price point, (example: rattling keys and wheel is too loose). Switches are okay. Not too good and not too bad.

Almost a 10/10!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great keyboard, I just unfortunately managed to purchase one with a defect. My left shift key had a noticeable "crunch" when pressed on the upper right corner, which is where it would naturally be while gaming. I purchased another one of these through a different vendor with newer stock and didn't have the same issue. I have to give BestBuy points, the easy return genuinely helps and I'll be back for any new purchases.

Good, but extremely sensitive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really good keyboard, but the keys are extremely sensitive. You’ll get use to it over time, but keys sometimes get stuck, even if you’re not touching keyboard at all.

You have been warned,Stay far away!
|Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.[Employee of bestbuy] For the last week and a half I thought my computer had a keylogger. After multiple os restores while setting up the computer it began typing by itself things I had typed weeks ago! Online searches, passwords, addresses, you name it! I finally researched everything connected to my comouter as I elimated the hard drive as being suspect. Only to find thousands of articles about a “buggy” feature that the k100’s experience, keylogger like behavior. Which causes ur keyboard to randomly type previous things that you have typed in the computer. Corsair has lost all trust from me as a consumer. Logitech is the way to go if your looking for a premium keyboard that actually works and leaves you worry free of your information potentially being stolen. At $200+ no one should have to worry about their information potentially being stolen or have their work constantly interrupted due to ghost typing. If don’t believe me look of k100 keylogger and you will see endless articles of this “keylogger like bug.”

Not worth the price.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had this keyboard for 3 months and have not been very satisfied with it. It's stated as a mechanical keybaord but the keys are very soft and extremely sensitive, unlike other mechanical keyboards used. The raised keys with the flat foundation seemed like it would make cleaning it easy, but 3 months in and the keys are already jamming even though it is well maintained. I took a shot on a high priced item and I would not do it again.

Posted .Hi Nate,
Thank you for your feedback. These are various versions of mechanical switches, perhaps you are more familiar with switches such as Cherry MX Blue which are very clicky and exhibit more of a tactile response. The OPX switches are designed to be linear and fast actuating for gaming, so they will activate very quickly when pressed. If you'd like to learn more about the differences in switch types, please feel free to reach out to our support team, we'd be happy to continue assisting you: support.corsair.com
