Features, value, and quality.
I ordered the Corsair RGB RAPIDFIRE Mechanical Gaming Keyboard recently because I decided that it was an opportune time to upgrade from my previous keyboard. I type a lot of papers and have played various types of games that demand different abilities from my keyboard. I determined that the Corsair Gaming Keyboard meets my needs the best compared to other available keyboards. Because of its value, features, and quality, this is one of the best keyboards on the market.The keyboard’s price is one of the most competitive on the market. For example, the competing APEX PRO keyboard is on sale for $199.99 on Amazon. The Corsair keyboard was originally $169.99 but was on sale for $139.99. The two keyboards have similar features; each keyboard has a mechanical feel, they each have similar response times, and they are each RGB and programmable. The only difference is that the Corsair keyboard is $60.00 dollars less expensive. There were also some less expensive keyboards. For example, the Redragon K552 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard was $27.99, but was lacking in response time, feel, and durability. I was looking for an affordable keyboard that still had all of the high-quality features that I wanted, and I found that in the Corsair keyboard.In addition to its value price, the Corsair keyboard had many great features that sold me on it. As mentioned in the name, the keyboard is RGB. RGB means that the keyboard can light up in many different colors using the primary colors of red, green, and blue. The keyboard comes with pre-programmed light patterns, but you can also program your own light patterns. For example, certain keys can be programmed with different colors for gaming purposes. The keys can also be programmed to light up in sequential or timed order and in almost any color. I even managed to program the keys so that is looked like an American flag waving in the wind. You can adjust the lights on the keyboard by using the simple CORSAIR ICUE software. The keyboard also has a great mechanical feel without sacrificing any key response time. In addition, the keyboard has textured keys for the W, S, A, and D, as well as for the arrow keys to give them a comfortable gaming feel. A wrist or arm wrist precedes the keyboard to provide a correct, relaxed hand and finger level. There is also a volume roll bar adjuster, programmable short cut keys, and a number pad for use like a calculator.The quality of the keyboard was also another selling point. The keyboard frame is constructed from aircraft-grade, anodized, brushed aluminum, which is built to withstand a lifetime of heavy use. The keys themselves are constructed from high-quality plastic which allows them to withstand millions of keystrokes. There are also five different key options that vary in click feel, so there is a perfect keyboard for even the pickiest gamers. If you are worried about the durability of this keyboard, you can set that aside.Because of its value, features, and quality, this is one of the best keyboards on the market. I had few concerns regarding the packaging and shipping of the keyboard, but it arrived two days after I had placed my order and without any damage. I ordered this keyboard as an upgrade to my old one, and it exceeded my expectations.

Great value and excellent performance!
The CORSAIR K70 CORE is a solid mechanical keyboard with smooth, quiet red switches and a premium feel. The sound dampening works well, and I love the media control dial. RGB lighting looks great, and it’s easy to customize with iCUE. Overall, it feels high-end but comes at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended!

Alright where do I start…
Okay so let’s see… a little backstory on why I upgraded. I built my first pc 5 years ago and with it I bought an older version Logitech gaming keyboard. Non mechanical or anything like that. Since then I’ve built 3 new systems but the same keyboard has always stuck around lol. This Christmas I decided to upgrade some peripherals instead of hardware and went with this keyboard since it was on sale for $110.After a day of use I’ve gotta say… I love it. I’ve got all other Corsair peripherals which is why I chose a Corsair keyboard and everything about it is perfect. The keyboard has super bright backlighting. 3 different lighting tiers of brightness. The cherry MX switches in these are amazing too. Overall amazing keyboard that I’m in love with so far. Now here are some points that I wasn’t expecting but I think are important.1. THE KEYS ARE MECHANICAL BUT AREN’T OBNOXIOUS- my little brother has an off brand mechanical keyboard and god damn sometimes it’s so irritating hearing him hit them. This keyboard is nothing like that though. While still having a distinctive click, it’s not obnoxious.2. THE WRIST-REST LOW KEY IS AMAZING-I’ve never had one on a keyboard myself, but a friend had one on his cheaper keyboard and it was flimsy and didn’t seem to help. Not on this keyboard. Holy hell its a game changer, it’s sturdy, texturized, and feels nice to rest my wrist on while gaming. Noticed the comfort right away.3. INCLUDES SPECIAL KEYS FOR BOTH FPS & MOBA GAMES- whether you’re playing League of Legends and using QWER & DF or COD:MW and using WASD, the keyboard included specialized texturized keys to replace the originals with to let you know you’re on the right keys. The outer ones (Q & R) for example even have a slight little incline on the outer edges so you’re aware of where your fingers are without any hesitation. It’s taking me a while to get used to but I already love it.The only thing that I am not a huge fan of so far is the iCue software. I use it for my mouse and Corsair RGB Ram already but never really messed around with it. My main complaint is I spent a few minutes trying to set them all to their own settings, (ram one color & keyboard on rainbow) and it wouldnt let me give them each their own setting. Honestly, I haven’t looked into it much at all so it’s probably simple and I’m just being too lazy to look it up right now but a bit of easier user interface would be nice on the iCue.Anyway I’m sticking with a 5/5 review and would recommend to anyone who wants a nice, quick, sturdy, beautiful, keyboard who doesn’t need macro keys!

The product is awesome brushed aluminum with handrest and different colored keys for ‘A’,’S’,’D’,’W’ and few other keys and the key removing tool.Dedicated scrolling volume rocker and media keys like play, pause, rewind and forward. Dedicated software that you get online for customization of RGB lights and the button actuation is mind blowingly fast it feels like the touch is enough to press the button.
