What is the keyboard to begin with?

Is it dying, or do they turn on again when you restart your computer?

Mine is software configured to slowly turn off the LEDs one by one after x amount of time

RAM: HyperX Fury 1600MHZ CL10 2x4GB      Storage: Samsung 850 EVO(250GB) + WD Red(2TB)      PSU: Corsair RM750 (and no, it hasn't blown up!)

I would suggest trying the keyboard on another computer, if they still don't turn on, contact Corsair

keyboard LEDs are very prone to die by static discharge.

 

you may have moved to a very dry enviroment, which is a static electricity nightmare.

A keyboard should last basically forever (or until the switches fail)

Anything less than 5 years on a good keyboard isn't right.

You should probably contact Corsair, and if you can't live with the LEDs being off, you should consider what keyboard you might want for the future :(
