Abstract: Not that long ago gamers had a rather limited choice of keyboards, particularly mechanical ones, and most were too expensive for the masses. However, most recently there's been an explosion of gaming-oriented mechanical keyboards, many of which could be c...
Abstract: With about nine mechanical keyboards piling up behind me, waiting to be inspected, weighed down and opened up, I think we should have a talk about mechas, a meta-review of sorts. Yes, it's time for gaming peripherals. Loads of 'em.The heavy mechanical key...

First, I would like to say that I love how CM listening to the community when it comes time to release a new product or when it is time to make some changes in an old one. In this case many (especially LAN gamers) wanted a smaller more compact keyboard to...
With all that's said and done, I'm really at odds with the CM Storm QuickFire TK. Upon first impression, the impeccable Cooler Master build quality is there – soft touch plastic coating, fully backlit keys, and modular cabling. As expected, the Cherry MX ...
The Cooler Master CM Storm QuickFire TK definitely offers some very sensible changes over the QuickFire Rapid, most if not all improvements a direct result of feedback from users and reviewers.Speaking of feedback, before we conclude with the QuickFire TK...
