Pros , different Tom's Hardware found the pre-lubed Corsair Reds the smoothest stock switches in a mainstream gaming board Two layers of EVA foam give a damped sound with no case ping (Tom's Hardware, PC Gamer) Aluminum top plate and a solid chassis, with only slight flex under hard pressure (Trusted Reviews) Metal dial for volume, brightness, scrolling and zoom, though Tom's Hardware says it is limited to five presets rather than fully customizable Per-key RGB with shine-through double-shot ABS keycaps and five onboard profiles (Tom's Hardware) Magnetic wrist rest in the box (Tom's Hardware, PC Gamer) Aluminum top panel with no creak or flex (GoMK) Volume knob with media controls, praised by both GoMK and PC Gamer Two-port USB 3.0 hub built in (Das Keyboard) Cherry MX Brown or Blue; PC Gamer called the typing experience fantastic Standard Cherry MX-stem keycaps fit, so replacement sets work (Das Keyboard) NKRO over USB and a 6.5 ft cable (Das Keyboard)
Cons , different Integrated, non-detachable cable and no USB hub (Trusted Reviews, Tom's Hardware) Trusted Reviews called the keys not a great typing experience for tactile fans PC Gamer found the dial's click out of character and the wrist rest texture rough No dedicated media keys beyond the iCUE button (PC Gamer) Switches are fixed, with PC Gamer reporting no hot-swap Wired only, and tied to iCUE for macros and lighting GoMK found the stabilizers unlubed and rattly Laser-etched ABS keycaps: GoMK called the printing below average, and PC Gamer said such legends stain with use No macros; PC Gamer said most users can do without a backlight but macros may matter (PC Gamer) No hot-swap; switches are fixed at purchase Wired only, with a fixed 6.5 ft cable
Research take , different A quiet, solid full-size board that reviewers admire for switch smoothness and sound damping. Choose it for that feel and the dial; skip it if you want a detachable cable, tactile switches or hot-swap. A sturdy office full-size whose build, knob and hub earn GoMK and PC Gamer's praise. Expect to lube the stabilizers and consider replacement keycaps; skip it for wireless, macros or hot-swap.
