Corsair k70 rapidfire mxred

[borcherd11199]

So i've got a problem with my  corsair  k70 rapidfire with the mxred switches. I have bought this keyboard little over a year ago, and so  far the space key has  died on me once. all of the sudden it started to not type 1/10 spaces and then it just stopped  working entirely... i thought that it was just a bad key so i replaced it with the options key next to the left windows button, but now it is happening all over again, if i sended it back on warranty the first time it would take 3-4 weeks to make sure it still was under warranty, does anyone have the same experience with this keyboard, or any other mxred keyboard?

I have the K70 Lux and I had some similar issues for a while. Is your keyboard plugged into usb3.0 ports? If so try plugging it into 2.0 ports. I don't know why but a lot of people with corsair keyboards have to plug them into 2.0 ports and then they magically start working

yeah i tried that, didn't work. I think i got real unlucky and got 2 broken keys in one keyboard... that's pretty f'ed if you ask me...

That is super unlucky. Or maybe you have super strength and you are just breaking them. It is sad for your keyboard but now you can fight in the name of justice and become the hero we need.
