The media could not be loaded. However, the UI seems more build with IT'ers/people who use a lot of complex software in mind than for the average Joe, al be it less extreme than some professional software. In all a lovely board with a hefty premium for small upgrades, but the quality is there and it does look smashing.

To me, it's also always been easy to use, and has all options you could probably need and more. It takes up two USB ports and 2. For those keys which have other functions, such as the number keys, or the / key which also has the ? In the software you can easily set it to max.

Packaging and Construction********************************Thankfully the keyboard is well packaged, because as much as a fault amazon for sending excessive and oversized packaging at times, this was shipped just as it is! The first issue i had with it is the space bar (not a defect, but a design flaw imo), Its textured and quite sharp, My first impressions on it were not good, it felt like i would end up cutting my finger after a long gaming session on it, The bad thing is that you can't even get a non textured space bar for it because it's a weird size, I'll probably get used to it over time but i will always prefer a non textured space bar, or at least make it optional like the other textured keys which i will get on to now. I used to buy cheap mouses and keyboards.

The keyboard comes with 3 hardware profiles than can be edited and then saved back onto keyboard's memory, however if you wish to it with other corsair peripherals, you'll need to use software profiles. really well made, comfortable to use and incredible for gaming, i chose the one with cherry speed switches just because i wanted the smoothest gaming experience and it does not disappoint at all it feels ultra smooth and quick with just the right amount of travel for quick presses in succession. If you don’t need those even, but still want some of the parts this board brings to the table like passthrough and key fonts, then the K70 Lux for a fair bit cheaper is another option.

and whirly colours and patterns. The reason for two is one is for the keyboard itself and the other is for the USB 2. As far as the spacebar goes, I work at an electronics store and there, almost all brands except Razer use these stabilisers nowadays instead of using those metal bars connected to the outsides of the spacebar. Being honest, if you're not bothered by the more extravagant lighting zones and pass through, but still want the Macro keys, then a normal K95 RGB is an option.

Also, since the profiles can be set to turn on when the program you want to use them with is active (and off when focusing on another program), and deactivates to default when the program isn't active, the profile buttons aren't something I'll press a lot anyways. I bought this keyboard for my newly-built desktop and it works & looks great.
