The Corsair comes with a detachable wrist rest, has full RGB backlighting, and software for customization. I didn’t find it too difficult to figure out, and I really like the “watercolor” effect that Corsair has.

This has the dual benefit of allowing for a more prominent display of the RGB lighting and allowing you to easily remove any debris that might collect underneath the keycaps. A host of extras put your PC at your fingertips, with USB pass-through, dedicated multimedia controls, a detachable soft-touch wrist rest and textured FPS and MOBA keycaps making it easy to play your way and minimize interruptions. The Corsair branding is more pronounced on this model, with a prominent translucent faceplate placed front and center rather than the minimalist logo relegated to the upper-right periphery on the K70 LUX.down from 4mm on regular Cherry MX switches), and a light actuation force of 45cN (the same as Cherry MX Red switches). Going back to the multimedia keys, you can see that the design is more consistent with the rest of the keys on the board.

It has enough texture and the material has a slightly rubbery feel making it feel not too hard and not too "sticky" especially when sweaty. There are certain functions that should be intuitive but aren’t (it took me ages to realize I had to save lighting effects to hardware lighting for them to show up when using onboard storage).The HyperX comes with proprietary linear switches only, but the Corsair is available with various Cherry MX switches. You can customize different sections of the keyboard to use different colors or play different effects. This keyboard actually uses two USB ports on your PC, and that’s because one of them is for USB pass through. Besides the new design and updated media keys and placements, the bigger selection of possible switches is one of the most important improvements of the Corsair K70 RGB MK.

Corsair brought to market a new version featuring Cherry MX Low Profile RGB Speed switches, released this year and exclusive to Corsair. One thing is that despite pictures show US layout it is a UK layout, but if you read title then your fine. See low profile means a shorter switch/keycap, not only offers that slightly improved and faster keystrokes, but for regular keyboard usage and typing a lot of stuff (as I do at this moment) it's just a bit more comfortable on the fingers.The better your problem and question is described, the easier it is for other Corsair owners to provide you with a good answer. It was my daily driver for many years, and it remains to be an integral part of my PC collection to this day. If you do happen to be in the market for something slim, it's arguably a better choice than Cooler Master's SK630/650, although that clacker has aesthetic advantages of its own. You can also remap the keys into other keys from A to Z, number or symbol keys, function keys, enhanced keys, numeric keypad, modifiers and lock keys, language key, mouse button, or keystroke.

This keyboard has a ton of extra features like customizable RGB backlighting, the ability to set macros to any key, and a USB passthrough.Cherry's introduction of low-profile switches seems to have given every keyboard manufacturer ideas. Various lighting effects are available, and the illumination can be adjusted for each key individually. The keyboard is well-factored towards gaming, though: There's full anti-ghosting and 1ms polling to ensure your inputs are read properly, however clumsily you might make them.
