Corsair exceeds (my) expectations with reasonably prices entries for RGB versions of k70 ($169.99), k95($189.99) and m65 ($69.99)

Available in late July for k70 and late August for k95/m65.

I'm going to be putting in my pre order for a RGB k95 as soon as I can. 


Here is Corsair's promo video

Edit: 
K70 will initially launch with red switches only, and blue / brown switches won't be available until late August.
Also it is not clear whether the K95 will be available in any other switch type than red.

This is somewhat disappointing as I personally plan to get brown switches.

I'm suprised on how good the design actually looks. Dedicated media keys are always plus when I look for kb.

Nice! But I'll probably stick to my K70 MX Brown switch. I don't really need the RGB backlight that much.

According to the Corsair PR in this Tek Syndicate interview, the K95 will be available in blues, reds, browns.

I am praying he didn't make a mistake, K95 with browns is my dream come true.

BRB. Going to go laugh my ass off at my friend who said they will by like 300 and got a coolermaster one instead.  I'm surprised to they have good pricing.

Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.

As I get older I get angrier more cynical, meaner. I feel some warning posts coming. I feel a ban coming. I was warned.

If I could get a blue K95... That'd perfectly compliment my G710+ with browns.
