Mechanical gaming keyboard for PC players

The Corsair K70 RGB CH-9000068-NA is a full-size wired keyboard built around Cherry MX Red linear switches. It connects through USB and requires a system with two USB 2.0 ports running Windows Vista, 7 or 8. Per-key RGB backlighting and an aircraft-grade anodised aluminium frame complete the package.

Steps up from membrane or non-mechanical boards

The jump is worth it when you need consistent actuation without a tactile bump and full 104-key rollover on USB. Anti-ghosting ensures every press registers during fast input sequences. The detachable soft-touch wrist rest can be removed if desk space is tight or preferred without it.

Limited to USB 2.0 bandwidth and legacy OS support

The keyboard draws power and data through standard USB 2.0, so it offers no higher-speed interface features. Software configuration depends on the Corsair Utility Engine, which must be downloaded over an internet connection. No onboard macro storage or wireless operation is provided.

Questions about this item

How much desk depth does the 17.24-inch wide keyboard need?

The chassis measures 6.42 inches front to back, so allow at least that much clear depth plus room for the detachable wrist rest if you keep it attached.

Which USB ports must be free for the keyboard to work?

The system requirement lists two USB 2.0 ports; plug the keyboard into both and avoid using a hub that only draws from one port.

Can individual Cherry MX Red switches be swapped later if one fails?

The switches are soldered to the PCB, so a single switch cannot be replaced without desoldering; the practical fix is a full board replacement.
