Thick, unwieldy USB cablling, Requires CUE to be installed and running. And CUE has a few problems, Cannot define macros using modifier keys, 2year warranty?
The Corsair Strafe RGB MX Silent keyboard is the most interesting keyboard I've reviewed lately, due to its unique (for now) key switches and almost absurdly elaborate Corsair Utility Engine software. Both the lighting effects and macro programmability of...

The Corsair Strafe RGB is an expensive keyboard. At $150 on both Amazon and Newegg for the Cherry MX Red and Brown versions, and $160 for the Cherry MX Silent, the Strafe RGB carries a significant price tag.The Strafe RGB has features expected at this pr...
It takes a certain amount of chutzpah to name your product after a feature, especially when the word has connotations far beyond the reality of what is possible. Unless this is a sponge keyboard with sponge switches kept in a vacuum then it wont be silent...

Simply put, Corsair did a phenomenal job with the STRAFE RGB keyboard, and the MX Silent switches gives the keyboard a slightly more elegant touch. There is no need to modify your keycaps with rubber O-rings to silence the loud clicking of a Red switch, r...
ANY mechanical keyboard does take getting used to a little, that's the honest truth. Give yourself a few days with the keyboard to fully understand it and get a feel for it. See, using a mechy definitely is a little different compared to your run of the...

The Corsair Strafe RGB MX Silent mechanical keyboard worked perfectly after installing the drivers from the Corsair website! Lighting options worked well, colors reproduced correctly, and there was a long list of default lighting effects to choose from. F...

Highly customisable, Individual backlighting, Relatively quiet switch actuation, Feature rich, Powerful software, Great design, Good build quality
Non-standard bottom row, No dedicated media keys, Relatively expensive
Keyboards are pretty much a fact of life when it comes to PCs: without one, you wouldn't be able to play most games, easily message your friends or type reviews such as this. They have become very personal: you feel uncomfortable when you use someone else...

After testing 16 different mechanical keyboards we can safely say that when it comes to the typing experience most of the models are a lot alike. This is mostly because of the used technique; everything with the Cherry MX switches has the same key sizes...
