Hello!

 

I recently watched Linus' review of the Corsair Vengeance K70, and I gotta say it looks really slick. The one thing is, everywhere I look, whether its NCIX, Amazon, NewEgg, or even Corsair's website, every single Cherry MX Brown version of this keyboard is out of stock. Anyone know where I could pick one up or are they no longer being manufactured? Thanks

I don't think corsair is making them because of the rgb in a few months.

Do you know if that one sold on eclipsecomputers would have the UK layout?

Have they announced a release date yet? I know Linus did some coverage on it in his CES videos.

No, mid 2014

I think it'll be around September again just like last years' K70 MX Blue and Brown switch release.

yeah, it probably does :/ but I think only one key is switched

Sadly, it's not:

I'd wait if I was the OP. It's a pretty different keyboard layout.

if you ask me they're pretty similar and he'd have to get used to the keyboard anyways, so that might not be a problem at all

Definitely not impossible, but will depend on the OP's use of the keyboard I guess.

As a programmer, having symbols in different locations would drive me insane :P
