Review Text: Overall great keyboard. If I were rating just the keyboard, this would easily be a 5 star. Typing on this thing is simply a joy. The keys are responsive, it feels solid (most modern keyboards feel like they will break if you look at them wrong, this feels like it really will stand up to the million keystrokes promised), and hey, what can I say, mechanical keyboards just sound cool. The wrist rest is a nice added touch. I mainly got this for productive reasons, I have to type a lot for work and this is absolutely great for it. The software is where this falls short. I got this keyboard in particular, because I've been gaming casually for a while now, and wanted to get more into it. If we are just looking at hardware, this is great for gaming (it even comes with replaceable WASD keys that have a better grip for gaming, nice touch), but I got this because it advertises that it comes with iCue and works with Elgato Stream Deck. I actually kind of like iCue, it is fairly intuitive and easy to use, but Elgato Stream Deck is a bit of a mess. This may just be user error, but I really had trouble getting anything set up in it. Maybe for someone more experienced in Stream Deck this wouldn't be an issue, but for someone just starting, it isn't very user-friendly. Bottom line, as a keyboard, this is definitely top of the line, I can't recommend it highly enough. As a way to get into streaming, this isn't the worst choice, but you might be able to find better.
