I bought my CMStorm Rapid I blue Switch in Nov 2014 and have a few leds burnt in Dec 2014. I did a exchange and the problem persist again on my new Rapid I. 

 

Anyone with such problem too?  Really disappointed with this keyboard.

White LEDs? Pretty sure this is common with white LEDs, though I could be wrong.

 

Cooler Master build quality is pretty rock solid. My best guess is that you were simply unlucky. Have you had any frequent power outages lately?

Yes, White LEDs and nope there was no power outages. Yeah, i was using the Razer Blackwidow 2012 version, till i decided to go to Cooler Master as i heard of it solid build quality.

You may have wanted to stick to your old Razer if it had no issues :/

Older Razer stuff is all right in my book. I just cannot stand the lack of Cherry switches nowadays. I know Razer doesn't like Cherry for supplying reasons but like come on guys.

My Razer Blackwidow broke down, that's why i need to get a new one.

Well never mind then xD

 

I hate to say this but you're basically stuck with returning yours or living with it :(
