MSI Knew you didn't want yellow accents on your Keyboard even before you did!

http://www.msi.com/product/mm/CK-Series.html

 

Blue version of their fancy pants Mechanical keyboard.

 

I think this one is a little more restrained, could be pretty slick if you're rocking a power edition card and an GD65 mobo with a nice big window.

Much better than the yellow one. Although I think the edges are too thick and it kinda detracts from it personally.

I like the yellow one. Probably more because I'm allergic to blue in anything that has to do with computers (blue is the new beige) than because I like the yellow one.

 

Red/ Gold / Silver would be better.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

I've actually got an mpower board but I couldn't justify the lightning so I've pot a power edition blue on mpower yellow. No window on my fortress.

 

Also, first time posting a topic in news, not a report. Victory is mine.

Someone said in the thread about the yellow version that there are models with brown and blue switches as well, I cannot find any reference to that though.

 

It sure would be awesome if MSI would show a little variety. I wouldn't buy a red switch board, too light.

Why are white backlights so rare? They're by far the sexiest that I've seen.

Better, but still not that great.

I think my issue with both models is that they look a little cheap. I wish MSI had gone for a more premium feel to match their high end components.

How is that better? Makes MSI blend in with every other product, the yellow made them stand out but not as ugly as the Noctua's.

I roll with sigs off so I have no idea what you're advertising.

 

This is NOT the signature you are looking for.

Well they were wrong :p. probably because my previous rig was blue so I got bored of the colour. Also, this has already been posted together with the yellow one :).

Considering that now they have red boards, maybe in the future they'll have a red one. Let's see...

If they do a red one you know it'll have to have a massive dragon on it.

That's not something I would want on my desk.

I never tried a mechanical keyboard but still wist they had blue switches better than cell membrane.

this keyboard will be so much better if the top was a light strip and the keys where RBG lighting and you could change it on the fly
