Awesome Tips Corsair K100 RGB: simply the best keyboard I've ever used
The latest flagship keyboard from Corsair is rocking their new Optical-Mechanical linear OPX switches and boasts of having the fastest hyper-polling in the world. Not only that, it features a new iCue wheel that adds some unique functionality to the keyboard, PBT double shot keycaps with a standard bottom row and the 6 macro keys on the side can also be used by Elgato Stream Deck — but you’re paying a premium price for all these features.

Deals for Days. Big home savings are happening now.
My favorite keyboard as of Jan 2023, and I don't play games.
The wristpad was so snugged to the keyboard that it accidently locked the lower keys of the keyboard in place, after I pressed them. I placed two very small pieces of plastic as spacers on the wristpad so that the spece between wristpad and keyboard was a little wider. Now it functiones great.
Other than the problem I wrote about above this is the best keyboard I have ever owned. Had to get used to the light touch but that did not take long.
i hate new corsair keycaps. They break
Hmm looks like a good keyboard to move too my G910 is falling apart.
I was not sure if I should get one, but this video… sh** up and take my money $$$
Whats even more mind blowing is that Corsair anounced that a software update will enable this to 8000 Hz polling rate – WOW!!! and I love the fact that it has a standard bottom row.
Can this keyboard survive 6 years of use?
Hands down the nicest keyboard I have ever owned. I upgraded from the K95 Platinum and the difference is night and day.
BUY THIS its only 300$ its worth it it is THE BEST GAMING KEYBOARD ITS UNDERPRICED
im looking at getting this keyboard should i get the cherry mx or optical?
Jeez he's awful at csgo
got rid of my razer keyboard for this. best keyboard money can buy !!
i just wonder what to do with my pass thru..
I have 2 of them and I think it's absolutely absurd that you have to install Elcrapo stream deck software on top of icue just to program the Gkeys and run macros. It's like holding my hardware hostage until I install their worthless trash affiliate company. It is absolutely unacceptable business.
Got this keyboard christmas 2021, they even updated it so it can now reach 8000hz polling
I buy it
Did you ever find a detachable cord RGB keyboard yet?
Hello congratulations for the video! I am very interested in purchasing this k100 optical keyboard, but I wanted to ask you what you think about writing. I'll explain. I currently have a Corsair k95 platinum Cherry mx speed. It's great in game, but I make a lot of typos because the keys are just too sensitive. I wanted to know how the k100 seemed to you from this point of view because if the writing experiences are similar (k95 and k100) then I would switch to the new k70 RGB PRO with cherry mx RED (definitely better for writing too, as well as for playing). Thank you for the reply.
im gonna upgrade to the razer blackwidow elite with that optical clicky switches to the corsair K100 rgb new Optical-Mechanical linear OPX switches
how soft is their wrist rest compared to razers wrist rest
8000hz hyper polling rate actually
heres my take on it i have a k100 i was kinda on the fence about whether i should do a custom build op just go with the corsair… although the corsair is great and i love it if your asking yourself the same thing which to do unless you absolutely need a 100% keyboard for the price i would probably do a nice custom
What about the razer huntsman v2? It has 8000HZ
A question… does anyone know if the Corsair K100 RGB keyboard works on a Laptop?
