"For me, I like mechanical, 100% keyboard layout, media keys, low-profile, RGB. Corsair used to make K60 and K70 that fit the bill ... Low-profile as in at least 50% shorter than standard. Laptop style low-profile would be nice but not required."

Those MX Brown switches are very very good. You'll have a great experience for sure. I still have the K70 MK2 (MX Red) and more recently got the K70 Pro RGB TKL. Corsair makes awesome hardware.

Well as you've purchased it it's a bit late but yes it's a good keyboard. I have the K70 MK2 I think and is fine.

I suffer from FFS (fat finger syndrome). I love the sound and feel of mechanical keyboards but still have not been able to find one that I truly can use on a daily basis without accidentally actuating the switches. My current daily driver is the Logitech G 185 clicky which seems to perform well. But really want to go with a more traditional mechanical keyboard. I also currently own a Corsair k70 RGB K2 with gray switches but had the same issue of accidental actuation in addition to my keychron K4c1 with red switches. Both the Corsair and the key chron were picked up off of Facebook marketplace not purchased new so I'm not a keyboard snob I'm just looking for something that I can use enjoyably any suggestions would be helpful and appreciated.

I think you can't go wrong with Keychron. At the moment, I have the Q1 Pro and the K8 Pro. I also have a NovelKeys NK65, GMMK Pro and a Corsair K70 MK2 (my Frankenstein keyboard). Out of all of them, I like the Q1 best (has Gateron Oil King switches). If you want to mod your Q6 Max in the future, the Oil Kings are the best switch I have tried so far. But the downside is, that you won't see your RGB lighting anymore. I really want to give the Q6 max a try because I kind of need that Numbpad. But I think I will bring my K70 to its final form before buying a new one.

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.

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.

That one has game specific presets,  right?  I used a Corsair at the demo booth for Deep Rock Galactic, and throwing a flare caused a flare of white light from around that key. Looked so cool.

They also had a massive keyboard display, where they had synced them up to display moving images across like, 16 of them.  I bet there's somewhere to get presets

I've been using a K70 (not the same one) since 2018. Never had key caps pop off. The biggest thing I notice with these is about two years in the LEDs will randomly start to die (for example: the blue led on one switch will die out). Every K70 I've had has followed this pattern like clockwork.

Yeah, dunno. Just an odd thing. Their triangles fail on me constantly also. Those are my two biggest grips with all the Corsair shit I have.

My Corsair k70 finally died and I've been wanting to check out the less gamer looking options. I see yunzii is selling "mystery boards" for 40. I assume this won't be a screaming deal per say but if I genuinely don't know what I like is that a terrible deal? I would probably get two and see what I like and don't like, since if you order two they are guaranteed to be different. Is this dumb? Is there an obvious better thing for me to be doing? Edit. Usage would be coding and gaming, Windows desktop and laptop running cinnamon variant of mintOS.

You should ask here as well: /r/MechanicalKeyboards/ I would probably go a more standard size keyboard and not a 60%/65%. Something like the Corsair K70 is nice, pretty solid keyboard, 100% and relatively inexpensive. Cleaning it is a bit easier as it's an open design. I personally use a KeyChron that's like full metal, and they have a wide range of sizes 60/65/100 etc. A bit more expensive. You just have to keep using it and playing games. Just like when you first used a controller..and you can still use a controller on your PC as well for certain games.

Hello I own a K70 Corsair keyboard since 2015 I think. I think it time to change it. it still works fine but super dirty. I was thinking about some TKL keyboards but have no idea what would be an actual "upgrade" feel without breaking my pocket. Any suggestions? Gaming/Working usually.

Best gaming Keyboard Please help. I know norhing about good keyboards. I spilled a drink over my Corsair K70. and now I'm searching a new keyboard. I use it in my homeoffice, so a numpad is mandatory for me. I like RGB, and I'f like to have a nice sound. Thinking about something like an Akko 5098b maybe? Any help is appreciated.

Likewise, I know it's a logitech subreddit, but I highly recommend the Corsair K70. I think I got mine on sale for $100 at the beginning of the year. Brought it home, hopped online with my buddies, and it turns out 3 of them have the same keyboard and all swear by it, too.
