Review Text: An Amazing Premium and Elite Keyboard. I have been using traditional keyboards for a while now, I never really considered getting a mechanical or gaming keyboard until recently. My sons and I have been playing more and more PC gaming and we decided that it was time to upgrade some of our accessories. We were looking for a keyboard with lots of customization, a good feel, and some nice bonuses. Long story short Corsair delivered on all of those and then some. First, the build is fantastic. It has some heft to it and that gives it a premium feel and makes me feel confident that my 3 sons and I will be hard-pressed to damage this thing during long gaming sessions. The keycaps are a breeze to replace/change, especially with the included key remover tool. My 8-year-old son has been able to change the caps on his own without any issues. We love the clicking sound the keys make. This is not a quiet keyboard by any stretch of the imagination. It would be difficult to use this if you needed to be quiet, ie someone sleeping near you. Second, the customization that this keyboard offers is insane. I would never even have dreamed up some of the things that are capable here. Once you connect the keyboard you should immediately install the iCue software. This software really unlocks the full potential of the hardware. We've used macros in the past, but this is macros on steroids. The level of customization per game is crazy. From different lighting setups/patterns per game/situation to custom macro options for individual games you really can drill down and have the most optimum setup per game, per person. We focused mainly on the customization for gaming, but my sons started looking into how the iCue software allows you to add rules to your hardware if you have a custom gaming rig. We don't have one of these yet, but my sons are keen on building one now that they have seen what is possible. If you made it this far you should know that we love this keyboard, and would whole-heartedly recommend this to anyone looking for a top tier gaming keyboard. There are plenty of other products out there for half the cost, but I doubt they would have this kind of build quality and custom integration.
