The editors didn't like
No Dedicated Macro Keys
Price (For Some)
No USB Pass-Through
We have tested the CORSAIR K70 LUX RGB keyboard with games such as The Crew
Wolfenstein
The New Order
MU Legend but also Quake Champions
Since the MX Silent switch does have the same actuation force as the CHERRY MX Red
They did feel very responsive
No BIOS/Polling Rate Switch
CUE Software unintuitive
Cherry MX RGB lighting dull and cannot display white effectively
No USB or Audio passthrough
Software unintuitive and needlessly complex for first-time users
Lighting is "stepped" instead of true 16.8 million RGB
Tons of light leakage
Convoluted softwar
No textured keys
High price
No USB pass-through connection
Lacks dedicated macro buttons
Expensive
Media controls have a learning curve
Price
Slightly more noisy than your average Cherry MX Red keyboard

Great build quality, Matte black finish, Cherry MX Red switches, Sturdy palm rest
Difficult software suite
While the $170 (about £103, AU$192) price tag is jarring for first-time mechanical keyboard buyers, it's actually competitive with other manufacturers. Razer's Chroma runs $169 (around £104, AU$190), and the upcoming Logitech G910 Orion Spark RGB will co...
RGB backlighting is useful and fun, Typing experience is excellent, Premium build materials
Programming the lighting is laborious, Features removed compared to previous K70
The Corsair Gaming K70 RGB is a great keyboard and perhaps the ultimate bit of gamer bling. One or two omissions mean we can't give it top marks, but it's still one of the best gaming keyboards you can buy.Next, read our best gaming headset round-up...

Starting with the build quality of the K70 RGB we have a keyboard which for the most part looks great and feels even better. The aluminium frame is top notch and adds a real feel of rigidity to the board while the key type are tried and trusted Cherry MX...

Ultra high build quality, Choice of Cherry MX RGB switches, Dedicated multimedia keys, Easy to use macro features, Full N-Key / Anti-Ghosting, Braided cables, Extreme customisable RGB LED lighting, Aluminium chassis
Expensive, Neautral, Basic lighting effects are easy to do, but expect to spend hours creating the more advanced stuff,
PriceThere aren't many places to pre-order this keyboard at the moment, but I suspect this will change quickly now that the product has officially launched. Currently you can pre-order it from Newegg for $169.99, but expect prices in the UK to be around £...
Abstract: Previously, the switches used in mechanical keyboards only had room for single colour LEDs, meaning anyone after full RGB backlighting had to buy a membrane or dome-switch keyboard. These typically don't support gamer-friendly features like n-key rollover...
It's rare that we reach for the Extreme Ultra award when dealing with a humble keyboard, but if there's one thing the Corsair Gaming K70 RGB is not, it's humble. The levels of customisation, both for key functionality and lighting, reach beyond anything w...
Abstract: But surprisingly, the real moral of the K70 RGB (and by extension, the K95 RGB) is that switches aren't everything. While I love Cherry Blues--they make my fingers sing when typing--Corsair makes some drastic missteps on both the hardware and software sid...
I had high hopes for the K70 thanks to its inclusion of real, honest Cherry MX switches. Those hopes were mostly dashed, however. The K70's light leakage issues, its stepped-gradient LEDs, and its unfriendly configuration software were enough to offset th...
At Rs 14,500, the K780 RGB has great trophy value for gamers who have the money to buy it and the time to sit and configure the lighting effects on their keyboard. I am not so sure about the others.For all the latest Tech News, download Indian Express App...
