Customer Ratings & Reviews

Mayn gamers ignore the keyboard, and have keyboard from the past. It is a worthwhile investment if you think about how long you will keep the item and how much you will use it! Corsair is legendary in the computer sector and this keyboard lives up their name. The form, function and build quality are all excellent!

My first cherry mx keyboard and my favorite. The design is very simple but classy. The lights are perfect for gaming in the dark and the lights also adjust to see wasd 12345 and arrow keys only! Volume control, the scroll wheel is perfect. Playback and mute as well. This keyboard is definitely worth the price.

Purchased this to go with a gaming computer my grandson and I built. Very nice for the price. Great response, well-built and good looking. We're very happy with the cost/benefit numbers on this one for our mid-range i5-based machine.

This is my first Mechanical Keyboard. I'm not sure I really believed the hype until I plugged this thing in and started playing some games. I'm amazed at the improved control and response I get. Love the look and feel as well. (wife hates the sound....but this isn't about her) :)

Keys are very responsive. Until I got used to the feel it wasn't uncommon to inadvertently double tap a key. Being a mechanical keyboard there is some noise, but it isn't the loudest I've ever used. Nice customization options with changeable keys for WASD and the first few numbers.

The keyboard itself is built very well. I have the Cherry Red keys and probably should have went for the blue, but that's my fault. Red are very sensitive and I make more mistakes. BB should have a key tester onsite, but again this is a gaming keyboard where speed is more important than accuracy. Try to test out the various keys before buying. The software is way to complex even for an IT Engineer like myself. I decided to just stay with the default layout so it is fine.

I really had my mind set on the RGB, but I decided that I'd be happy with any back-lit keyboard. The red, even on its brightest setting is really easy on the eyes. The Cherry MX mechanical switches feel great to the touch. I enjoy it for gaming, as well as typing.

So far this has been a great keyboard. Very responsive and durable. I like the feel and look of it on my desk. The response while playing games is pretty good and typing is smooth. My only problem is the space bar can be a bit too sensitive, causing me to jump in certain games, but I think it's part positioning on the keyboards part and part me learning a new keyboard. Great buy and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a solid gaming keyboard.

Great keyboard if you're looking for a nice mechanical without too many frills...looking forward to using this for many years to come. Cherry MX reds take a little getting used to for typing but i soon loved them, and for their intended use of gaming they're awesome!

Mechanical Keys work great. Comes with extra textured gaming keys. Ability to illuminate individual keys in a custom profile. Seems well constructed and look great.

I kept putting off buying a new keyboard for awhile. I never had a mechanical and wasn't sure which color switch to get. On top of that, I wanted one with a built in wrist pad and red led lit. This is one of the few and cheapest of that variety. I am so glad I decided to purchase this. Very high quality. Brushed metal is beautiful. Doesn't look like an alien mothership...just sleek and sexy. I don't get many typos like people say they do with cherry mx red. However, I do get more typos than with a membrane keyboard but not enough to even matter. Buy it now you won't regret it.

Before I did this purchase, I checked in many websites and you tube video's, my veredict was right... This is the perfect item, way better than the razor chroma. The aluminum material it make me feel so much security and trust when I'm typing.

I couldn't be happier about this purchase. i am a software developer and type all day long, this keyboard makes it effortless and enjoyable. I'll never go back to a non mechanical keyboard.

It is a perfect gaming keyboard. The keys are soft and its worth for how much you paid for. My husband likes this keyboard more than the Logitech gaming keyboard he used to have before.

This is a great Keyboard. Looks great. Feels great. Love the extra contoured keys. Lights are bright as well. Also the USB port on it is usefull. Overall no flaws that can drop stars for. Things I wish yes but I cant drop stars for that can we?

Cherry MX Reds need some getting used to, but now i cannot switch back a rubber dome now. I ordered this keyboard thinking it would come with the original logo since it had the model number ending with 11, but instead i got the keyboard with the new logo. Too lazy to send it back, but gonna dock a star for them not sending the proper model. Of course now we can just buy the old logo off of ebay and replace it :D

This model might be phased out with the arrival of the full RGB LED version. The bonus is the price drop on this Red LED only model. PROS: - Red LEDs look great - Very responsive keyboard - Special textured WASD + number 1 thru 6 - Solid look and feel - USB pass-thru port CONS: - Keys are very sensitive, I've experienced more typing errors than usual - Typing is loud, even though Cherry MX Red switches

Bought this to replace a old worn out Logitech keyboard. Like the fact it is lighted and has multimedia controls (comes in very handy when gaming in the dark). Would recommend this to anyone needing to upgrade or just replace a gaming keyboard.

I love this keyboard, they give you textured keys for your standard gaming keys...WASD 12345, they also give you a key puller to remove and clean the keys with an absurd amount of ease. (Literally was ecstatic when I found it in the box.) As far as using the keyboard for gaming, I wouldn't Replace it for any of the competitors keyboard Razor, Logitech, ETC. The lighting functionality of the keyboard is really fun to play with and you can light and turn off any keys you wish which is great for nighttime typing. The response to keystroke is unsurpassed in my opinion, most times movement does not require you to even compress they key completely, it responds at the lightest stroke. The only drawback and i mean the ONLY draw back is it being a mechanical keyboard which can be very loud when typing.

The is by far the best keyboard for FPS gaming, does not have all the extra macro keys that are entirely useless, its to the point, red cherry MX switches, just amazing
