I am looking at a mechanical keyboard to replace my awful rubber dome one and have decided on one of these. im leaning towards the non rgb because of it not costing me an extra 60 dollars but i haven't tried it myself so i need someone else's opinion. Is it worth the extra or shall i stick with k70? (getting cherry mx red).

The only difference you will have is RGB lights, so if you don't want to spend $60 extra i would recommend to get the normal k70

Save yourself some money and just get a standard K70. My 02 cents.

Sources? :)

 

Corsair forums.,

 

Probably elsewhere also, I haven't checked yet.

 

Corsair forum mods are deleting threads and merging others to downplay the issue with the old line and the RBG ones.

There's also disconnect and POST issues with the RGB keyboards.

Maybe that's why the k70 rgb mx blue are constantly delayed here in Swedenland?
