Corsair K100 RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboard (CHERRY MX SPEED Keyswitches: Linear and Rapid, Leatherette Palm Rest, PBT Double-Shot Keycaps, Elgato Stream Deck Integration) QWERTY, Black

This keyboard is exceptional if these 'laptop' style keys are your thing. For me typing is very fast with very few, if any mistakes. This of course comes down to personal use. For me this includes general typing of emails etc, but also graphic design, music production & gaming, with this keyboard suiting me for all uses. Excellent lighting, response, battery life, construction & support directly from Corsair. Easily configurable using the iCue software that I already use for Corsair components in my pc, which for me is permanently running in the background. Without iCue configuration, this keyboard can still be used with onboard light settings. The price for a new (unused) unit for some, might seem very high, as was the case for me initially. However, with keyboards (& mice) being the most used interfaces, it makes sense to have the best, most comfortable & suitable items you can get, especially if you spend a lot of time using a computer. Same applies to desk & chair. 10/10 for the keyboard.1/10 for the seller not making it clear that they sell used units

The quality of this keyboard is on another level. I mean, no one needs a keyboard this expensive but it's genuinely the best mechanical keyboard I've ever used, and I've used hundreds over the years. In the box you get some extra key caps that are textured and convexed - they're commonly used keys you use whilst gaming, and do genuinely help with with spatial awareness and hand placement. You also get a very nice wrist wrest in the box that neatly attaches with magnets. As for build quality, it's imaculate. There's not a single fault aesthetically and ergonomically. The multifunction dial in the corner is satisfying to turn and fondle and the mechanical elements are wonderfully tactile. The pressure you need to exert for a key press to be registered is a lot less than the majority of keyboards; it feels like a key needs only depress a few millimetres before a press is registered, which takes a little time to adjust to but is awesome in games once you do. I haven't found much use for the programmable dial yet but I'm sure others users will. There a few default configurations set up like adjusting the RGB brightness and a useful alt-tab shortcut feature. You can program your own functions too. I would comment further but I'm yet to mess about with it as I haven't had a need to do so. The programmable RGB effects are mindbogglingly vast and varied. Using software you can even layer multiple effects and can switch between multiple profiles at the touch of a button, located next to the dial at the top. They give me a bit of a headache so I have it set up fairly dimly with some keys brighter and a different colour. If you love RGBs you won't find a better keyboard, ever. There's only a few things that might be considered negative: that the key layout is slightly different and they're smaller to the standard, and that the macro keys require third-party software to function. There's only a slight difference in key cap placement but it's just enough that there's a learning curve. Typing felt very alien for the first few weeks and WASD movement was even more difficult; once my brain adjusted it was fine. In order to use the macro keys on the far left of the keyboard you are forced to have Stream Deck running, which is mildly irritating. It's genuinely the best keyboard I've used - the Ferrari of keyboards. However if you aren't that interested in the fancy features or hyper responsive keys you'd be better off buying one of those old school style industrial mechanical keyboards that are a fraction of the cost and use very similar switches.

Picked this up for gaming and editing—wanted something responsive with proper build quality. The OPX optical switches are lightning fast with zero debounce delay. Keypress feels smooth and linear, ideal for FPS and typing without fatigue. No mush, no wobble, and every key registers clean. RGB lighting’s next level—per-key customisation, slick transitions, and no lag. iCUE software gives full control, and the Elgato Stream Deck integration is spot-on for macros and media. Used it for gaming, video edits, and even writing reviews—no drama, just clean performance. PBT double-shot keycaps feel premium and don’t shine up after use. Wrist rest’s magnetic and comfy, and the aluminium frame holds up to knocks. I keep it plugged into the main rig—doesn’t budge, doesn’t flinch. 👍 Pros ✅ OPX switches—ultra-fast and smooth ✅ PBT keycaps—no shine, no fade ✅ Elgato integration—macro control built-in ✅ iCUE software—full RGB and profile control ✅ Solid build—aluminium frame, magnetic wrist rest 👎 Cons ❌ Premium price—worth it if you use it daily ❌ iCUE setup takes time—lots of options ❌ Big footprint—needs desk space ❌ No wireless—wired only 🧭 Personal Review If you want a gaming keyboard that’s fast, tough, and packed with features, the Corsair K100 earns its spot. I’ve used it across long sessions, edits, and downtime—no drama, just clean response and solid control. Proper stash-ready gear for anyone who wants their setup dialled and their keys sorted.

I have been using a Logitech G610 keyboard for many years and it's still going strong, but decided to move that to my office at work and search for a replacement for home. After the requisite online research, I decided to try this Corsair keyboard, in part because i have a Corsair monitor and various Elgato products and have found them to be high quality, reliable and the software is kept up-to-date. I got it cheaper from Amazon Warehouse and arrived in perfect condition. So far the K100 RGB has proved to be a good buy. The RGB lighting is excellent and fully adjustable in software. I have it set up with white backlighting on the keys and coloured waves around the base. It looks wonderful! The construction is a solid mix of metal and plastic and it looks and feels like it will last a long time. A glossy strip along the top of the keyboard might be a bit of a fingerprint magnet but that might make me keep the keyboard clean! The keys themselves are removeable (come with a tool to do this). They are clicky enough for me, not too noisy and very comfortable to use. Recommended.

I only changed the W,A,S,D keys to the textured ones for gaming. LED lights are great, sync with icue no problem, everything perfect for a keyboard of this price. I was impresses with the premium build quality, well recommended. This was the UK version QWERTY layout.

subject says it all, I can see some reviews in corsair forum that im not the only one having the same issue, im returning the product, this is a waste of time for a hefty price.

Had the earliest verwion of K70 before this. Such an upgrade but the same familiar feeling. Approved.

manifique remplace mon ancien corsair qui , au deballage, avait une touche qui sautait et la touche virgule marchait pas... la ca marche impec tres pratique la molette et le controle volume, la gestion des led independament pour chaque touche... on peut meme desactiver les led arriere par exemple bien car ca se refletait sur ma tv, plus besoin de petit tissus etc . Attention il prend 2 port usb le logiciel prend un peu de temps car bcp de fonctionalite le toucher est vraiment tres trs bon par contre clavier bruyant donc 2 etoiles pour ca mais pour les autre . moi perso j'aime bcp mieux quand c'est bruyant : je sais si j'ai tapé ou pas etc et tellement mieux que membranne.... pour les jeux tres tres reactif meme si les 4000hz je teste meme pas
