We recently looked at Corsair's top of the range gaming keyboard, the Vengeance K90, which impressed us with a combination of exceptional build quality, sublime aesthetics and great performance. So we are quite interested to see what they can deliver at a more affordable price point which will appeal to a wider spectrum of gamers.

Today we are going to look at the Corsair Vengeance K60 gaming keyboard which is essentially a more basic version of the Vengeance K90. Rather than being tailored specifically for MMO gamers, it has been designed to enhance the FPS gaming experience. This means it looks rather different, ditching the 18 programmable macro buttons in favour of a replacement set of contoured WASD keys.
