Corsair Raptor K50 Gaming Keyboard Review

 

Testing and Conclusion I have been using the Corsair Raptor K50 over the past few weeks. I have been pleased with it as it has been a change to my desktop without being a mechanical keyboard as most are in the market. Some people love or dislike...

– RGB Lighting, – Super Easy Control Panel, – 54 different macros keys

– No key snapback like mechanical keyboards

Broke

 

I do not have the receipt which is required for return. I would expect it to last longer. My experiences with logitech do. I will switch mfr. If you buy save receipt. this was a sudden failure with no warning.

does a lot but instructions are not very good

Excessive travel distance on keys. Mine won't power up after a little over a year.

no ease fix

 

this keyboard worked fine till this problem surfaced, also is not ease to clean due to the disign.

looks and feels great, had no problems for one year seven months. Did all it was designed for.

back lighting not working anymore, nowhere to find a solution to the problem. Re-installed everything; problem persists. I get three flashing lights end the MR button stays lit.

Very nice keyboard

 

According to Newegg, "item is currently out of stock; there's a newer model available". Seems like many items (at least out of the ones I bought) either become out of stock/discontinued few months after. In regards to this item in particular, I looked...

Very good keyboard. Bought it some time last year, and it's been working very well since then - Good build quality, most certainly does not feel "cheap". - Keys feel sturdy and well-built too; are very responsive, even for fast-typers; perfect for...

Knocking out one egg, however, because this keyboard does have a few strange glitches. - For some reason, keyboard does not respond while in pc is in BIOS mode. Perhaps a USB port issue, but I'm not sure. It could potentially become a major...

A+ replacement for a busted Logitech G110!

 

The backlight isn't as bright as backlit mechanical keyboards because of how membrane keyboards are constructed. My boyfriend has a Razer mechanical backlit keyboard, and the backlight is really intense because (a) it's blue only and (b) there are...

Bought this at a B&M store when it was on sale for $80 after MIR. I'd been using a generic Lenovo USB keyboard for months after killing my Logitech G110 with a particularly excitable glass of wine. I wanted something that was backlit, had dedicated...

The only complaint I have so far (granted, I've only had this for less than a week) is that the pop-out feet on the front and back do not have rubber on the bottom. My desktop surface is glass, so the keyboard slides around like crazy with the feet...

Corsair CH-9000007-NA

 

Every thing about it is great! If I could buy it again I would spend the extra buck for the brighter back lighting

The macro keys work great with over 54 programmable keys. High quality build quality (except for the wrist pad hooks) wasd and the arrow keys color makes its easy to see at night along with the backlit keys. I plugged in the USB pass through into a USB...

It is very big unless your not worried about the space, The keys are very dim at max brightness, they only really stand out in the dark but then the light from my monitor makes it hard for the lights to really POP
