A nice touch are the stickers on the front which tell you that the Corsair Gaming Vengeance K70 RGB has Cherry MX Red switches. Some keyboard makers will just tell you its Cherry MX, or mechanical without specifying which.
It can make a big difference to how a board feels, so more than anything you want to at least have an idea of which switches you are getting.
The Corsair K70 RGB keyboard's packaging is pretty fancy. It is all glossy, with high definition pictures of the keyboard coving the front and back.
As you would expect, there is a quick-start manual and warranty leaflet with the K70. They are pretty standard, though there is a lot of unexplained backend software features that you need read up on using Corsair's online manual to full understand.
Do not be fooled by how short the paper manual is though. If you venture online and download the full thing, it is well over 100 pages. I have never seen such a deep instruction booklet, digital or not, for a keyboard, but it is warranted – see later.
The only ‘accessory' that comes with the Vengeance K70 is the wrist rest, which is entirely detachable and features a couple of rubber strips on the underside to stop it slipping around. The top is covered in dotted, soft plastic which is comfortable to the touch.
Now for some Ram that has this many colours. Id ditch my ballistix tracer for it if it was any good
(about the keys to assing functions like switching profiles to): I finally found some use for keypad keys :)) and no, it’s not an uncomfortable position for me.
