Helllllooooo guys

 

So i am looking at one of these keyboards (k70 or strafe) in cherry mx red. Ive had a chance to play with the k70 red and really like the feel of that and wanted to know since the strafe is "genuine german switches" is there really a difference? I am leaning a bit towards the strafe because ive heard its a little easier to clean than the k70. 

 

Just wanted to know your guys thoughts on which you guys prefer and ill listen to all opinions =] 

 

Thank you all, and have a awesome day!

The Corsair STRAFE is a great budget mechanical keyboard for gaming.

 

If you want the RGB LEDs and Aluminium Chasis, Get K70 instead. It also has dedicated media player controls.

I have the k95 rgb which is just a k70 with 18 extra macros, and I really like it. They both use Cherry MX switches, so you will have the "Genuine German Switches" either way. I personally have never used the strafe though, so I can't say anything about the cleaning part. I would imagine it's just a matter of removing the switches and cleaning up the crumbs! :D

I will not be getting RGB just red LED's so they are the same price for me.
