I have K95

It's advertised to have on-board memory

but you can't have profiles and macros without software running, so that's bullshit

you also can't bind shortcuts with command line arguments directly from the software, you have to instead create a batch file and then bind a key to that, which causes a command prompt window flash up and throw you out of any and all full screen applications, like idk... GAIMZ, plus it's really annoying since you lose focus from all windows for half a second

and there's some bug with backlights where I still have arrow keys and WASD changing brightness - it's as if the factory default lighting mode is running in the background of my custom profile

is K70 better than Corsair Strafe?

I got K70 rapidfire, cannot say one bad thing about it :) Best god damn keyboard i have ever had (steelseries Apex 350, razer blackwidow before). Strafe has different keykaps and led not build in the keys so there is a bigger chance of them dying + in my experience i would go mad without the multimedia keys + volume wheel on my K70, especially that volume wheel

Quick note - something that I hate

the keyboard has no onboard memory, so unless I have CUE installed, it doesn't light up (corrected in the K95 platinum)

if the PC is locked, or off, or sleeping, etc. -- no lights.

I have a Ducky Shine 6 Snow White Edition (silver / speed switch. My cousin has the K70 (Brown switch). Both are pretty great at what they do.

I have a K70 RGB Lux with blue switches, and a K95 RGB Platinum with brown switches.

I prefer the switches of the K70, but the K95 has been my main since I got it back.

What is it exactly you want to know?

 

I have the K70 RGB with Reds. I absolutely love it. It's great for both gaming and typing. I couldn't be happier with my purchase.

I got a new K95 RGB platinum with Cherry MX Brown switches for the price of a K70 and it's nice. I can't say it's worth it without any discount or anything tho, better off getting a K70 if you can't find a sale on the K95.
