Like a good pair of slippers or a comfy chair, the benefits of a decent keyboard can never be overestimated for the PC enthusiast.

Cherry MX switches; RGB per-key lighting; Superbly comfortable; Premium feel

No additional macro keys; Unintuitive software; That pricepoint

Corsair has brought a colorful, LED-backlit keyboard to the masses. The K70 RGB is Corsair's newest Cherry MX mechanical keyboard, which features customizable backlighting and gives users 16.8 million color options per key.

With a new model released every other week, it seems mechanical keyboards remain all the rage among PC gamers .

Exclusive Cherry MX Speed switches; well-polished CUE software; textured keycaps; solid build; detachable wrist rest; dedicated media keys

Pricing and a limited warranty are the big ones; I'd also like to see the USB pass-through support the third-generation standard instead of USB 2.0

The Corsair Gaming K70 LUX RGB Mechanical Keyboard W/Cherry MX RGB switches is a serious contender for "Best Keyboard of the decade". The different switches you can get allow customization and the gaming experience is unparalleled!

First off, we are a little late with this review, our apologies but we received the sample extremely late. So then, realistically the Corsair gaming K70 RGB RapidFire is very little different from the regular K70 RGB, while there are some subtle differences this release is all about the fast MX...

Great solid build. Cherry mx red rgb switches are top notch as always. A bit expensive compared to lesser brands but the quality of this board and s/w makes up the difference.

I was using another high end Mechanical keyboard and the Mechanical keys are well broken in to the touch, after over a year of heavy gaming use. My first clicks on the Corsair sounded louder and just a touch harder but very precise.

Solid keyboard, the look and feel are above average in any price range USB Pass-Thru works as it should ,it recognizes everything i need to attach; Number 1 pro is the multi colored lighting on every key,(everywhere).

Software is 105 mb and all options are not available.Basically if you have an all Corsair set up you are fine; I have Corsair memory,and power supply but i am sure a mouse and headphones by Corsair would enable more functions.And yes it takes a good time learning the software.

I'll admit to being a tiny bit excited when I originally heard about the new Corsair Cherry MX RGB keyboard range earlier in the year. Yes I know it's just a bit of colour, but anything with flashing lights is guaranteed to get my attention.

The product is well built and having the RGB LEDs built into the genuine Cherry MX keycaps makes the overall aesthetic much more bold than most keyboards I have used. The keyboard is high profile, and thus probably not for everyone, but if you enjoy the feel of mechanical keyswitches and are looking...

It is a great keyboard with excellent build quality and customization. The only downside is that it is expensive when not on sale.

-Build Quality: Materials; thick cables -Software: Cue really makes this keyboard shine -RGB: Tons of colour combinations; static and active -volume slider and playback controls are awesome to have on keyboard -Cherry MX Browns are the best

-Expensive (got it on sale
