Rosewill Mechanical Keyboard RK-9000I

The Rosewill RK-9000I is a very well-made mechanical keyboard for gamers and typists alike, but the bare bones design might be a little too basic for most.

Striking black and white design. Excellent mechanical keys and solid construction. Available with connections for both USB and PS/2.

Lacks common features, like media and volume controls. No advanced programmable features. Short four-foot cable.

Worth the price for sure!

Worth picking up if you are looking for a nice first mech, or even if you are adding one to the collection. Worth a look for sure!

Love the sleek look of the white on this keyboard, as well as the blue switches. I have always been a fan of blues. I own several boards, with browns, blacks, reds, and also one with greens ; If you are looking for a board that satisfies both gamers...

The first con I will mention is the external cable that connects both to a USB port in your rig, as well as a mini USB that connect into the keyboard itself, this makes the cord completely external so it is another piece to keep track of, but that...

Excellent Keyboard

Recommend this keyboard if you're looking for a cherry mx blue keyboard.

Cherry MX blue keys, works as advertised, feels great, no issues with the cable or anything

Doesn't glow but that was expected

Please make tenkeyless brown version!

I have the 9000 brown and 9000 blues. I'd buy a tenkeyless 9000i brown in a second!

Best looking keyboard

No tenkeyless brown option

Great Mechanical Keyboard

If you are going for a white look to your PC this is a solid choice. It does not have the flair as other mechanical keyboards, but that is preference and just know what you are getting with this and you will be happy. Purchased for my wife to go with...

Great mechanical keyboard with Cherry MX Blue Keys. Does not have the extra M keys which is nice if you are not interested in them like myself. Nice white and black design, hard to find a white keyboard. Compact size is a plus if you don't have the space

It is loud, but with Blue switches that is to be expected. No back lighting

Great, simple keyboard with no frills

While this keyboard has excellent build quality and is sure to last me years to come, I feel like the exclusion of basic features like media keys and a windows lock could be a con to many, including myself. Overall, though, this is a very good keyboard...

Built like a tank ; Great contrasting look ; Cherry MX Blue switches ; Nice, high quality, removable cable ; PS2 option ; Fair price

Could use media keys ; A little bit too basic

Great Deal

This problem seems pretty rare among my friends and fellow reviewers, and it's a great deal either way.

Feels great, sounds great, fun to use, and it's a downright steal

You get what you pay for sometimes. My lower-left Control key is a little broken, holding it down (to choke guys in Dishonored) doesn't produce expected results, and sometimes it'll get "stuck" firing and I'll open a new tab or zoom in an out on...

Solid Keyboard, Clicky Blues

Overall extremely solid board....except for the USB plug. Does not inspire confidence.

I love the clickety-clack of the blue switches. Nothing feels better to type on

Not a revolution as some die-hard mechanical keyboard fans would have you believe. I can still stand to type on my membrane keyboard at work

Great keyboard

You really should research the various types of switches before buying a mechanical keyboard. Cherry MX Blue switches are known to be particularly loud, and to bottom out hard. It is part of the design and you have to get used to it. However, getting a...

This keyboard feels very sturdy, and has good response on the keys. You can feel when a key registers, with a good solid click ; It's design is good, with interchangeable USB and PS/2 cables. Both cables are nice braided cables, which don't tangle as...

Keys bottom out hard, but this is normal for Cherry MX blue keys, and I expected this ; Keys are loud. However this is normal for Cherry MX blue, you probably should not use this keyboard for low noise environments ; The connector on the back is a...

I LOVE THIS KEYBOARD

I wish they would have the option for a keyboard without the numeric keypad. I could use the space.

Color - black keys on a white board looks awesome in my opinion ; Brown keys are the best. Better than blue or black ; Plug n play, super easy ; Haven't had a single issue with it since I started using it ; Also, being able to press 5+ keys and no...

None
