Great keyboard for the price. Been using this one for 2 weeks with HyperX keycaps (and some ceramic ones) and no complaints so far! The only thing I'd change is I'd prefer brown tactile switches (: The speed silvers are super responsive though, you barely have to press the key for it to register. 8/10.

Amazing

Using a Ducky Mecha v2 and the lack of dedicated arrow keys finally got to me. Didn't realize how much I use my arrow keys until my ducky TKL. Once I saw this Corsair keyboard come out with PBT key caps I was sold. Overall, it kills my ducky and this says a lot because Ducky's are 10/10 keyboards themselves. My productivity just shot up and they're fun to type on. So if you need to work hard (productivity) play hard(gaming) this keyboard was made for you.

Compact and durable

This is the best keyboard I have ever owned and I've used many gaming keyboards in the past. The RBG is superb on this one and I leave mine set to "RAINBOW" which looks awesome next to my Corsair Scimitar Pro mouse also set on "RAINBOW" lighting scheme. Corsair's iCUE software is flawless with this keyboard and very easy to use. It's all business with a flip of an easy access switch on the keyboard to turn the keyboard into tournament mode which is totally awesome. Lighting for tournament modes are able to be customized. Although I use the 10-Key for my business everyday. I don't miss it because this is by far my favorite gaming keyboard I have ever used and the saved space from not having the 10-Key on this board is welcome when I get the time to play. I would ... MoreThis is the best keyboard I have ever owned and I've used many gaming keyboards in the past.

DO NOT HESITATE

If you aren't aware, Corsair makes some of the best products on the market. And it all boils down to preference.This keyboard is not only gorgeous and have one of the best RGB systems out there, the keys are an absolute joy to game with. The sensitivity paired with the mechanical aspect of the keys make this absolutely perfect.The only way I can see someone not liking this keyboard is if they 100% have to have the number keys on the right side of the board.Just go buy this beautiful piece.

Good Software and Build!

This keyboard is a good overall keyboard and excels in keyboard software, RGB (if you like that) and build.The Switches in this are a bit scratchy and have a bit of twang but feel pretty nice, the top metal plate is neat and good for durability, the tournament switch is also neat but only if you take your keyboard with you to competitions but you might as well just make a profile on the software and save it to your keyboard with one still colour for RGB and no macros. the buttons on the top are pretty handy, just a quick button press and you have paused your music and the profile, brightness and windows key lock is nice as well, the volume scroll wheel is surprisingly grippy and easy to use, and the feature of usb c is nice as well. though there is one thing that ... MoreThis keyboard is a good overall keyboard and excels in keyboard software, RGB (if you like that) and build.The Switches in this are a bit scratchy and have a bit of twang but feel pretty nice, the top metal plate is neat and good for durability, the tournament switch is also neat but only if you take your keyboard with you to competitions but you might as well just make a profile on the software and save it to your keyboard with one still colour for RGB and no macros. the buttons on the top are pretty handy, just a quick button press and you have paused your music and the profile, brightness and windows key lock is nice as well, the volume scroll wheel is surprisingly grippy and easy to use, and the feature of usb c is nice as well. though there is one thing that isn't that useful, the axon technology (8000 Hz) isn't actually that good especially when the actual keys measure at 4000hz polling rate, it would have been better to have corsair's optical switches instead as axon technology would actually be somewhat beneficial like on their k100, so when deciding on this keyboard, the 8000hz polling rate shouldn't be the deciding factor. though that doesn't make this keyboard bad in any way. its software is really customisable, you can change what the windows lock key does (windows key only or shift +tab, or alt+F4, etc), the RGB customisability is really good compared to other keyboard software's, the macro customisability is also very nice though only for people who find it useful, and the general quality of this keyboard is very nice.the price tag of $209AUD is a bit pricy but if that is fine for your budget I recommend this keyboard for its great software, durability, and its top media keys, but if you don't want to spend as much money, I recommend the SteelSeries Apex 7 TKL as that is only $189AUD on PCCaseGear and still manages to have dedicated media keys and a better font and somewhat good software.

Great TKL keyboard with usable media keys and solid build.

Very sturdy, amazing keys, all the media controls you'd need.The only gripe I would have is that keys were a bit too light or sensitive and I pressed untentionally some keys with just resting my hands on it. After a couple of days I adjusted and this no longer an issue, and feels great for typing.Very happy with it.

Great board for work and play

Superb board. Well made, visually stunning with good lighting and the key response is fantastic for typing and gaming. The media controls are also very useful, I don't know why more boards don't have them.

Pretty good gaming keyboard

I had never heard of Cherry Silver switches before, so was interested to see how they felt. I was impressed overall with the feel for gaming, but for everyday typing, the keyboard just felt a little taller overall than I am used to (I have an old wireless Logitec keyboard I have been using for almost 15 years and am just way to used to the feel and layout). I have a keyboard at work with some knockoff cherry blue switches that I like better than this one for typing as well. This is not something that I would buy, regardless of price, but it is not targeted toward me either. It is a solid keyboard that will probably take a lot of abuse, and has some very neat features for someone that games. While this will not be my daily driver keyboard, it will be by my desk for ... MoreI had never heard of Cherry Silver switches before, so was interested to see how they felt.

The best keyboard I ever owned

Comfortable, fast response and perfectly sized. It’s the absolute BEST corsair keyboard I ever owned and i’ve had a K70, RGB strafe and a k70 M.K2. This one takes the cake!!

Upgrades galore from the original K-series mechanical keyboards

The tournament switch in front changes the lighting to become red, and has a latch that keeps the switch in place and has an indicator to show to staff that the tournament mode is engaged. Pretty thoughtful feature. Overall, I'm very impressed with this keyboard. It even comes with a keycap puller and a set of their gaming-oriented caps that used to be sold separately in earlier K70 releases. I think one other possible change change would be to have the top-left media buttons be obvious macro buttons instead. You can still remap it using the iCUE software, at least. - A note on images and video: Just in case you were concerned seeing a key seemingly have an issue, I have the right-hand function (Fn) key unlit on purpose through iCUE. The lighting works just fine as ... MoreThe tournament switch in front changes the lighting to become red, and has a latch that keeps the switch in place and has an indicator to show to staff that the tournament mode is engaged.
