corsair k70 rapidfire (non-rgb)

[Glennieboyyy007]

so about a week ago i bought a new keyboard, the corsair k70 rapidfire.

I really like it. always used membrane keyboards.

but now after a week, the keys : w" and "4" make a typical "spring" sound when you press them a bit slow.

is it normal for a mechanical top make suchs sounds? or should i go back to the store and try to get a new one? (the "windows" and "k" key also have a bad finish, got some residu to them)

I mean, given the mechanism of the switch, it would make sense. How loud is it?

when i just sit at my desk normally (40-50 cm between my ears and the keyboard) it is a bit less loud as a button being fully bottomed. it is not that i have to put my ear against them to hear it.

and i know that the keys use springs, but the other keys dont make that sound. that's what i think is strange.

but could just be me being worried as it is my first mechanical keyboard
