The Corsair K70 is acutally none of those. The bottom row goes [1.5] [1.0] [1.25] [6.5] [1.25] [1.0] [1.0] [1.5]

 

It's the same as the Logitech G710+ that I have. The only keysets that I know of that fit these layouts are these two:

http://www.geekkeys.com/eck-white-abs-backlit-keyset-for-corsair-k70-logitech-g710/

 

There are probably others available, but those are the two that I know of. You could also buy whatever keyset you want, then try to find some individual keys for the bottom row that would match whatever set you choose.

max universal keycap set should also fit it

I plan on getting a Corsair Strafe (RGB) with the Cherry MX Brown switches. 

Mechanical Keyboards are pretty nice, though I've never had a problem with membrane or scissor switch membrane keyboards.

The 1st one (the one on the Esc key) is a Green Poison Warmaster from HotKeysProject (it's my one and only keycap from Martin thus far). The one on the PrtScreen is a semi-opaque Red with Glitter keycap from GloyZ and the other two are both Gem caps from Gen.S (Turquoise and Ruby). I got the Warmaster and the Red w/glitter cherry profile cap from GeekHack and the Gems I got from Massdrop.

That is awesome! I'm hoping to start collecting a few artisans here and there when I have some spare cash I don't mind spending. The caps themselves aren't that expensive, but it's shipping to Canada that makes it so much. I'm usually paying almost as much for shipping as I am for the cap :(

Did some mods to my Logitech G710+! I'm super happy with how it turned out :) The keycaps look really tasty...

Painted the whole keyboard white, then added GeekKeys rainbow keycaps. Had to mod the spacebar and stabilizers to get it to fit, but it works perfectly now :D I love it

Are those the Blank Thick PBT rainbow set? 

 

I through PBT was opaque, and moreso if its thick. Interesting.

Yep those are the caps I have! And I thought the same thing, but it actually shines through really well. Like it's pretty damn bright.

lighter colors of pbt tend to be more translucent than they do opaque. Mostly, it has to do with the color of the plastic. Much more than it does the material, anyway.

I'm using the Razer Blackwidow Chroma, i love the feel of the "Razer" switches, personally the cherry switches i've tried have not really felt great to me. But overall i love the aesthetic of the blackwidow chroma. Overpriced? Maybe. RGB needed? Not at all but why not

Apparently the feel varies. People have been noticing the new keyboards feel different from last years models.

2013 - Cherry MX switches

2014-2015 - Kailh rebranded Razer switches

2016 - Greetech rebranded Razer switches

 

They've upped the warranty and durability rating on their keyboards for 2016. Now 2 year warranty and 80M actuations.

I don't feel that this deserved a thread of it's own, so I'll just ask here:

 

Does the CM Storm Quickfire Rapid have a non-standard bottom row or not? I've been itching to buy myself a keycap set for a while, but I hear mixed information about the bottom row. Some people say "Sure, just buy this set," while other say that the spacebar is larger than normal. Anyone have any idea/experience?

 

Edit: also, should I get 0.2 or 0.4 mm O-rings for MX Blues?

Yeah.

But they were doing it for free, and it didnt really matter as I didnt have my parts yet, I just got my last things yesterday, told them that, so hopefully they will finish the plates now.

Post a photo of your board. There have been a few boards in the past where they swapped the layouts around slightly. That's probably why you have mixed info.
