    Damn, even at $179 I don't like it. There are just so many other HE options out there now in that price range that offer all HE switches across the board and even 8k polling. I feel like big brand companies like Corsair and SteelSeries are starting to fall behind.

    Totally agree with you on the polling rate comments and that’s exactly why I use a .1 ms actuation point because that’s something I definitely can feel while gaming. The key does actuate faster than my last keyboard.

    This does actually look surprisingly good. It still has that gamery look thats perpetuated by the floating keycap design but either way it seems super solid for a big gaming company. I REALLY like the knobs and the mode triggers in the top right - really cool that it changes the lighting depending on mode too.
    Just an all around good choice for getting into Hall Effect at your local Best Buy and thats always gonna be a plus

    so its basically an 80HE but with much worse software, worse performance/reliability, worse warranty and customer service (corsairs warranty is completely useless from my experience), it doesnt auto calibrate, plate mount stabilisers, practically unmoddable, not even all the keys are HE??? and for the same price as an 80HE? no thanks

      Any HE keyboard review essentially boils down to does it do everything that wooting does and does it have extra features or is cheaper, and if the answer is no, you go and buy a wooting

      @@peanutbutterbean1738I wish you guys would stop sucking off Wooting. They are an unorganized company with sloppy logistics and they are extremely slow and unreliable when it comes to customer service. Yes, their web based keyboard configuration tool is a great alternative to what Corsair offers. But, if you don’t like the Corsair keyboard, just take it back to Best Buy, Amazon, etc. and get your money back. Good luck waiting for Wooting to respond to your return request.

      The Drunkdeers and some other brands are significantly cheaper for close performance, other brands are better sounding and better built for the same price, others have cool features like wireless...
      Wooting is the default choice if you only care about performance and software at the cost of ignoring everything else, which admittedly is something a lot of sweaty gamers want.

    If wooting released a 75% with a media key or multiple media keys then it would be endgame for me. This board seems like a good product but these companies need to understand that Wooting is the gold standard and you either have to match its performance PLUS extra features OR make it cheaper otherwise there is 0 point in buying it

  • @Andos.b
    @Andos.b ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

    Adding my personal experience here regarding some of the keys not being hot swap hall effect. For me it definitely is a dealbreaker, because as mentioned in this video i had an original apex pro, which didn't have omnipoint switches across all keys. The omnipoint keys were fantastic, but the arrow keys hardwired to the board started misfiring just out side the warranty, which of course leads to having to replace the entire board. I've now got a wooting 80HE which has complete hot swap across the board, so if you get a malfunctioning switch you can replace that part.
    Be wary of this, as any issue to a single key will render your entire board useless if you cant replace individual key components.

    Really appreciate the way Corsair allows you to save settings to hardware, some of their RAM kits and AIO's do that as well. I am not sure why they are trying to get in to the keyboard market though, I feel if you really want a good custom keyboard, you would want something not overpriced and fully customizable, looks to be better than Asus's $500 one though :shrug:

      I would say that for many years, 2010 until 2020, Corsair was the premier gaming keyboard for longevity and quality. I've still got some 15 year old board that work great, they don't have some of the modern features and sound terrible compared to my custom board but they still work after many years of very heaving gaming.

    When you make certain keys non-hotswap, especially important keys like the arrows, it makes me think twice about your keyboard. But when you also make your board a nightmare to open up, it just comes across as thinly-veiled Planned Obsolescence. That's a hard pass.
