Corsair K68 RGB Keyboard Review

Rating: 8.0.

How could you possibly improve on a backlit mechanical IP32 rated keyboard? By adding full RGB illumination of course. Corsairs new K68 RGB not only features IP rated dust and water resistance but also makes full use of the CUE lighting software for an almost infinite number of lighting customizations. It is currently available with official Cherry MX Red switches, and for a £119.99 the added RGB lighting benefits have a lot to live up to when considering the original single colour LED K68 can be purchased for £89.99. The K68 RGB will sync with any existing corsair RGB peripherals, but does it sync with you?

KItGuru says: The Corsair K68 is another great addition to the RGB lineup, backed up by dust/waterproof switches and excellent software.
