RGB Keyboards and Mouse Craze!

[Krakerman]

So lately there is alot of craze with all these RGB LED mechanical keyboards and mice. Well I jumped in and upgraded my system to the Corsair K95 RGB and the Corsair M65 RGB mouse. This fricking keyboard is above and beyond anything I could ever expect but came at a cost as this bad boy set me back $189+tax from Fry's and the mouse was $69 but man I am so happy with both of these! You can do any lighting effect that you can possibly imagine and also have independent key lighting using16.8 million possible colors to choose from. Someone even made a Lighting effect profile with Pac-Man lighting animation just eye dropping. You guys should check these products out on YouTube and see them in action.

The keboard uses cherry MX red switches as well.

Man those do look sweet.

My problem is that I'm hooked on the microsoft natural elite style keyboards, and going back to standard keyboard throws my typing off terribly. Perhaps they'll cater to my side of the community some day.

I'm the same way except where it comes to gaming keyboards. For everyday typing and (particularly) software development, gimme that beautiful Natural Ergonomic layout. But when it comes to games (particularly with WSAD controls) I'll take the standard keyboard layout every time. Weird I know.

What caught my attention was being able to light any key and colors that I want independent of each other for each game or application that I run so I could light just the arrow keys in one color and wsad keys in another with the rest off if I so choose. So now all my games and emulators can have the keys for each lit for that specific program. As well as having custom light show.

Razer has the Black Widow Ultimate RGB that is similar type of keyboard but not as customisable with the light displays but can have independent key lights and color profiles. I hear thou the colors are a bit brighter but they don't use cherry MX switches either which are suppose to be the best. Anyone looking for this type of keyboard can look to either Corsair or Razer.
