Long overdue upgrade from my 25$ mouse/keyboard combo pack from radioshack, haha. I am so stoked right now.

(PS: Please excuse my massive Corsair boner. I might be a bit of a fanboy, haha)

I love my red switches! I realize that is an unpopular opinion, but yeah. I'm very happy with this keyboard.

Not really, I like Reds too, have three of them......well, two actually, the 78 version has Cherry Red for alphabet keys, with Blues for Numpad, and various other switches.....but mostly Red. I do have a Blue, pretty good for gaming as well, but excellent when it comes to typing. Red is a tad sensitive, so easy to make typos......Blue's great for typing, I hardly make a typo using it. The cl;icks Blues make can be fun, but annoying for those nearby.

Nice!! Can't wait to get a K95! 

I have tried Blues and Reds so far and I prefer the reds. The tactile bumps on the blues used to annoy me while gaming so I switched to reds. I love how light they are, i think they have the lowest actuation force of any Cherry switch. Only problem was that they were a bit slower for typing at first because I kept on fully compressing the keys, But now that I am used to the keys I type faster(not as fast as on the blues).

While I do not personally favor Cherry MX red switches or red backlighting, I think it's safe to say the K70 is a huge improvement over the K60. That's a very sleek-looking keyboard.
