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 experiencing the glorious technicolour splendour of the STRAFE RGB it comes very difficult not to be able to enjoy every aspect of this mechanical keyboard. It is shipped with the same known and loved features of the STRAFE keyboard such as the soli...

Abstract: It wasn't so long ago that both RGB lighting and mechanical switches still held novelty value in the PC peripherals game. These days though, it's de rigueur for your keyboard to look like flyover shot of Las Vegas and sound like the intro to Murder She Wr...

Same high quality design as standard STRAFE keyboard, The clicking of the keys is slightly reduced on the down and upstroke, Great for gaming or typing, though not as satisfying as traditional switches, Typing can feel a little easier on your fingers than
Typing with reasonable force produces an irritating ringing hum, Spongier feel takes away some of the pleasure of using a mechanical, More expensive than standard mechanical switches, Corsair Utility software is still a little hard to get your head around
We do like the Corsair Gaming STRAFE Silent RGB mechanical keyboard. Cherry's Silent switches are a welcome addition to the family. Incorporating tappets instead of ‘dampening o-rings' is a solid plan as it does not impact the feeling of precision that a...
Now that the K70 RGB has gone up in price, the Strafe RGB is the Corsair keyboard to buy. The per-key illumination is fantastic, and unlike Q-Pad's MK-90 the software actually works with Windows 10. It might not have a metal backing plate, but constructio...
There are a number of reasons to consider the Strafe RGB over the standard Strafe. For an extra £40 or so, you get a half-decent wrist rest and much more appealing backlighting. The latter also sports full RGB so you get all the fancy customisation in Cor...

Exceptional build quality, Detachable wrist rest, Per-key RGB lighting, Multimedia controls, 104-key roll over, Gaming key-caps, MX Silent Switches are definitely quieter, Competitive Price (relative to rival similar spec products), USB pass-through,
None, “The Corsair Strafe is a great all round keyboard for work and gaming, packed full of cool features that put it ahead of the competition. The MX Silent switches are certainly amazing and it would be hard to imagine buying the stock MX Red over the M
PriceThe Corsair Strafe Cherry MX Red Silent RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboard is priced at £139.99 from Overclockers UK, while the MX Red and the MX Brown are priced at £129.95. If you want the non-RGB version, you can find the MX Red and the MX Brown at £9...
With the Strafe RGB, Corsair have created a high quality gaming keyboard, which has almost no flaws at all We like the fact, that this keyboard feels very sturdy, which is partially because of the high weight Apart from that there is the new keyfeature...
Robust Built, Decent Cue Software, USB Pass through port, Fun to use, Tactile response
Noisy for an office, Heavy
So, whether you should choose Corsair Strafe Cherry MX blue or not is not a question. As it's one of the best mechanical gaming keyboards available out there. And the Matte finishing on the Corsair Strafe with individual LED backlighting and of course mor...

RGB Lighting is mesmerising, Simple design that works, Cherry MX RGB Keys, Powerful RGB tweaking
Expensive, Control Panel is a UI nightmare
The Strafe RGB is a fantastic keyboard with RGB lighting that not only looks great, but also is functional. The software is terrible, but once you get used to it, it's fine. Plus you need not come back to it once you're settings are all done the way you l...
