K70 Keyboard

[Eric Kazer]

Only Comment on it. Well a few or so.

 

Would like to see the Corsair Name on the top back lit. I think that it would make it look cooler at least on the Silver/ Blue one. Just a little thing.

 

Also might try Cherry MX blues on the next one. Kind of like the clickyness of them.

 

Nice board. Might buy another one with blues.

 

Hope they make the black one with the blue lights, & the silver one with red lights. Should give it a interesting look.

 

 

Curious about other thoughts. Like maybe even green lights for n'Vidia theme.

I have the mx blue version and love it. It is well worth the money. It think the lit corsair logo would be awesome to see in the k70.

I can't wait for the Corsair Cherry MX RGB boards that were shown off at CES.

This. Also want them to have cherry MX Green switches on those.

I have the K70 Brown switches and it's amazing. The gun metal color makes it look sleek and not too overpowering.

 

The backlit logo could look nice if it came with the MX RGB

I would like to see a cherry mx blue with a black bottom instead of the gunmetal ugliness. If they had that, I would have already bought it.

I have the Black K70 with red switches and red LED's, it goes great. fits into m,y red/black colour theme.
The Corsair logo illuminated would be great, i was thinking that the moment i plugged it in.

Corsair should really bring out the black k70 with blue switches, I have seen a heap of people asking for it.

I too can't wait for RGB LED backlighting. That looked awesome. For now, I'll have to settle for Silver/Blue Scheme. I'm getting used to the reds. I'm upgrading from a Logitech k360 wireless keyboard. The Corsair is much better than the Logitech k360. The Logitech k360 is still connected because of the wireless feature.

 

I do have a problem with the Media keys. They don't work after restarting the computer. I'm running Windows 8.1 on a SABERTOOTH 990 FX, FX8350 CPU, 16 GB of Corsair Vengeance 1866 MHz Memory, Sound Blaster Recon Fatality Championship Edition Sound card, Pioneer Blue-Ray RW drive, in a 650D Case with white led lighting. Also have connected, Key Span Media Remote, Xbox Receiver, Blue Tooth Receiver, a T650 Touch Pad, & a MX Anywhere Mouse to one Logitech  Unifying receiver. Oh, & the k350 Key board.  All works good except for Media Keys. Wonder if there is a conflict of some sort with the remote & the Corsair K70 Keyboard.

 

I like the scroll wheel for the volume control on the K70 Keyboard. It doesn't feel cheap like other keyboards do. Like my Wave Keyboard from Logitech. You can't tell that that button is even there.

 

I wish that Corsair could find a way to make these keyboards wireless so I could use it from across the room. But I guess that wired is more reliable. That's one of the reasons that I bought it. Well that & the key feel. Linear & solid. Can't go wrong with it.

 

Of course I can use the T650 to lazily type while longing on the recliner from across my bedroom while watching You Tube videos.

 

Media Keys aren't that big of a deal. I could just unplug the IR sensor & plug it back in or move the BIOS switch on the keyboard to restart it & the Media Keys will works fine, they just don't start at start-up. Probably a Windows 8 or 8.1 thing. Nice if it would work right. Doubt that it is any fault of Corsair.

I would like to see a back-lit corsair logo on the K70. And while they are at it, they should make a K70 with blue switches on the black chassis with white back lighting, then it would match my M95 much better.
