Review: Best of the best - The quality of this keyboard is on another level. I mean, no one needs a keyboard this expensive but it's genuinely the best mechanical keyboard I've ever used, and I've used hundreds over the years. In the box you get some extra key caps that are textured and convexed - they're commonly used keys you use whilst gaming, and do genuinely help with with spatial awareness and hand placement. You also get a very nice wrist wrest in the box that neatly attaches with magnets. As for build quality, it's imaculate. There's not a single fault aesthetically and ergonomically. The multifunction dial in the corner is satisfying to turn and fondle and the mechanical elements are wonderfully tactile. The pressure you need to exert for a key press to be registered is a lot less than the majority of keyboards; it feels like a key needs only depress a few millimetres before a press is registered, which takes a little time to adjust to but is awesome in games once you do. I haven't found much use for the programmable dial yet but I'm sure others users will. There a few default configurations set up like adjusting the RGB brightness and a useful alt-tab shortcut feature. You can program your own functions too. I would comment further but I'm yet to mess about with it as I haven't had a need to do so. The programmable RGB effects are mindbogglingly vast and varied. Using software you can even layer multiple effects and can switch between multiple profiles at the touch of a button, located next to the dial at the top. They give me a bit of a headache so I have it set up fairly dimly with some keys brighter and a different colour. If you love RGBs you won't find a better keyboard, ever. There's only a few things that might be considered negative: that the key layout is slightly different and they're smaller to the standard, and that the macro keys require third-party software to function. There's only a slight difference in key cap placement but it's just enough that there's a learning curve. Typing felt very alien for the first few weeks and WASD movement was even more difficult; once my brain adjusted it was fine. In order to use the macro keys on the far left of the keyboard you are forced to have Stream Deck running, which is mildly irritating. It's genuinely the best keyboard I've used - the Ferrari of keyboards. However if you aren't that interested in the fancy features or hyper responsive keys you'd be better off buying one of those old school style industrial mechanical keyboards that are a fraction of the cost and use very similar switches.
Review: Great keyboard. - Peak keyboard design Nice and weighty. Premium feel. Very fast, 8000hz. Nice comfort soft leather wrist rest. Way more comfortable than it looks, You get what you pay for.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So much Better than the K95 Platinum
*by P***F on 1 November 2020*

I was really on the edge about whether or not to buy this. A keyboard over £230 Is a lot. This was to replace my 3 year old K95 - nothing wrong with it. I chose the Optical switches as I had the Cherry speeds with the K95 - Now let me tell you why this board is better The keys are so much smoother than the k95 for a start and the optical switches feel like the Speed ones but - they have lubbed the spacebar and enter key making them so much better. The actuation on this is 1mm from 1.2 on the speed switches which is incredible and very noticeable - if you think you pressed a key by accident then it will definrtly register. The keys are slightly smaller and more professional looking than the K95 and the wrist rest is pretty nice very comfy. Media keys are the same, volume scroll wheel is nice and the usual querks are useful RGB is nicer than the K95 because of the added bottom lighting but I preferred the top light bar on the K95 but that's just me. The scroll wheel - I don't know why Corsair did this but itis useless for now as iCue needs a serious update to incorporate this. Now is this keyboard worth the price? Well I would say no it is a great board and well improved over the K95 but they have added unnecessary things to justify the price 4000hz polling rate, The Axon processor, The Scroll Wheel I thing aroung the £180 mark would justify this but because I can sell my K95 I don't mind paying this. You won't regret this board
