With the K70 RGB MK.2 ($159.99), Corsair isn't reinventing the wheel. Instead, it includes modest upgrades to an already-excellent gaming keyboard. The K70 RGB MK.2 embodies the exceptional quality we've come to expect from Corsair, with a robust aluminum frame that uses resilient, Cherry-branded switches. It doesn't have the extensive RGB lighting customization options or row of macro keys you'll find on the Editors' Choice Corsair K95 RGB Platinum, but it'll appeal to gamers who don't want to shell out the $200 for that high-end model. Something Old, Something New There are abundant similarities between the K70 MK.2 and it's older sibling, the K70 LUX RGB($159.99 at Amazon). Both feature a durable aluminum chassis, and radiant, per-key RGB lighting. The two generations come packaged with a detachable rubberized wrist rest and a set of gray textured keycaps for FPS or MOBA players. They also share the same dimensions, measuring 1.5 by 17 by 7 inches (HWD), and weigh the same at ...

The Corsair K70 RGB MK.2 may not possess a litany of substantial upgrades on the previous generation, but it does offer small improvements on Corsair's steadfast and functional design.

Extensive switch options; Per-key RGB lighting; Versatile utility software

Minimal updates from previous iterations

the cherymx red switches are very smooth silent switch with a nice short activation distance and the back lighting is clear and accurate to what it is meant to look like

Great Keyboard, Software is great (for me atleast) nice wrist-wrist.

Gorgeous design and RGB lightning, Chassis is solid Brushed Black Aluminium with no wasted space, Weights 1kg so no chance of it moving during intense game-play, Black Key switch selection, High-quality components especially the mechanical switch design, Braided cables with USB Pass-through, Detachable Wrist rest, Media Keys, Comes with additional colored and textured key-caps FPS/MOBA, Helpful extra features, Corsair Utility Engine (CUE) software is awesome once you learn your way around it, definitely worth the price when you consider how much you use it, this will last for years.

Perfectly adequate for household purposes. Did not go to the physical store to try it in advance, but it worked surprisingly well.

i know the price is steep but this is the best keyboard ive had in a very long time. the feel of the whole unit, the clicky sounds, the response times.. all absolutely amazing. its perfect!

PROS: - mechanical keyboard - has multi media keys - RGB - well-built and robust CONS: - expensive

Very good mechanical keyboard, icue software is great for making custom lighting effects

Loved this keyboard for 18 months. Went perfectly with my NZXT h700i case. Big, heavy, luxurious console that sits like a lordly slab on your desk. Has all the trimmings. Minor criticsim is key caps are a little wobbly and rattly. Nice MX Brown switches and generally good key feel. Nice sci-fi rounded, clear and tidy font on the keys, and a good size. Sharpish edges on the keyboard for that industrial feel that I kinda liked. Volume roller is super nice. The media keys don't feel as nice, but handy. Good thick cable. Software tricky but works, and enables syncing even of the lights on my Asus motherboard, as well as the Corsair RAM of course....view more
