It's been pretty great! It feels, looks and sounds much better than my old one for sure. The only thing that I'm still getting used to is the size, as it's a 100% keyboard, whereas my old was probably 80%. I'm not sure if there is a model of the same keyboard but just a little smaller or not, if there is, that would probably be better suited for my personal use as I'm predominantly using it for gaming. That being said, I'm still super happy with it and I think I went with the right one!

K100 is way to expensive I would go if on a budget and don't mind abs and not premium with the k70 core worked well for me but now I'm on k70 max is amazing for it's price premium quality sounds amazing and has nice lighting and a nice wrist rest IMO I would go for k70 max

If it’s these 3 options, the K70 Core. It has lubed switches, quieter acoustics, a more compact design and is the least expensive of the bunch. K100 while feature packed is an outdated and clunky design. K70 Max is decent but the switches can be loud. Note: I have all 3 of these keyboards so I can answer any questions you may have!

I like my K70 Core and it's very comfortable and easy to type on, but it's not in the same category as the other two. Between the K70 Max and the K100, the two obvious distinguishing features are the G keys (K100) and adjustable actuation points on the K70 Max. I don't know how much either of those matter to you. Prices fluctuate a lot, especially since these boards are not recent releases. The K100 has sold for less than a K70 Max and vice versa. Unfortunately, last week might have been the time to buy. I know I can't go very long without my G keys after nearly 15 years of having them. I am using the K70 Max this month and even in standard trim the keys are quick and light. It certainly does have some gaming advantages in that sense. If you have an interest in changing your actuation point height, this is your board. If you do go for the K100, most people will be better off with Cherry Silver. Optical are interesting and I bought that board with them as soon as it was released. However, you need to be really sharp all the time both for gaming and typing. I found I got sloppy as the day went along and 4 years later I replaced it with the Cherry Speed version and I've been happy with it ever since.

I love my Corsair K70 RGB Pro, but I have Cherry Mx Blues. its so nice but the price point is kinda a turnoff to me. Would really like Corsair to re-release the keyboard with hotswap sockets, cherry MX2, and better adhesive/ larger rubber pads for the armrest (like the size the keyboard uses). All while keeping the same price. I also had an OG Tramp stamp Corsair K70 RGB with MX Browns that I loved literally to death. Had a couple RGB LED's go out, had the spacebar switch die. Fixed the switch. Eventually the RGB Led problem got soo bad that I attempted to explore what happened. In the end without actually finding the problem with the RGB a ribbon cable died. lived 9 years.

I do love me Corsair k70 rgb keyboard. Has been going strong for 10+ years!

I'm partial to the Corsair K70 series, but I can't really recommend it at the ludicrous prices they go for nowadays ($150+). If you can find it on sale below $100, it's a really nice board.

still rocking an old corsair k70 and it's been perfect, it even predates the RGB models and still going strong. just checked i got it in 2014 and it's still running perfectly despite one or two beer / chocolate milk incidents

Ive been using the same corsair vengeance k70 from 2013 all this time. It still works like new, no idea if they still sell it but the k70 line is still fine enough I hear. I would say grab a refurbished one because that's just a good deal. For a mouse I just use the Scimitar because it's useful for FF14 and certain actions in applications.
