! Elegant!! After swapping both keyboards’ key caps now my new RGB K70 is perfectly perfect! Each includes per-key RGB backlighting, dedicated media keys, and onboard profile storage for taking the configuration anywhere. I think I paid $120 or so for mine (probably on sale, but don't remember as far as the MSRP) which has basic non-customizable LED lighting. All three boards are available now from the Corsair website and other e/retailers. c-attack's PC Specs : Join Date: Jun 2014. You don't have to turn the LEDs on, I almost never do. I'd say I prefer the non-RGB switches because they're stiffer, but that's about it.They're also louder so some days I wonder.I have a K70 and it's a great keyboard.
Corsair STRAFE .
My biggest complaint though, is that most of the "upgrades" are LED upgrades and the price for it just keeps going up and up.

Now the MSRP is up to $170 and there really don't seem to be many differences other than the LEDs. Corsair recently announced the release of their new K70 RGB MK.2 and Strafe RGB MK.2 gaming keyboards.
The keyboard includes FPS and MOBA keycap sets that are textured and contoured for easy location of the primary ‘gaming’ keys. Other than that, the features are the same between the regular and SE version of the board.

Please Yeah save yourself the trouble and get a basic Steelseries G6V2. Key choices include Chery MX Red, Brown, Blue, Silent, and Speed keys offering users a wide variety of key types.The biggest difference between these boards, outside of switch options and materials is in pricing.

A bit belated, as the Corsair crew likely had a bit of a rest after Computex. So since I’m getting a second perfect keyboard after the normal K70, I chose RGB MK2 K70 and I got a very good price online $135 with blue switches! The K70 RGB MK.2 also has per-key programmability for macros Corsair says is for enhanced functionality.
Bei der Strafe sieht die Beleuchtung halt schon um einiges besser aus, durch den weisen Hintergrund.
Whichever switch you pick, the K70 RGB MK.2 RGB and STRAFE RGB MK.2 both offer the comprehensive set of features that gamers demand; per-key RGB backlighting, 8MB of onboard profile storage and dedicated media keys are just the start, all powered by new Corsair iCUE software to synchronize lighting and control across all your Corsair iCUE compatible devices.
Using the iCUE software, users are able to access nine different effects as well as synchronizing with compatible Corsair peripherals for RGB illumination.

My K90 was at least.
The silver and white combination makes for a bright keyboard for sure. Why do so many gamers get the ten key number pad? They weren't even back but natural Al color, I always thought that was best look.The STRAFE RGB MK.2 is priced at $140, while the K70 RGB MK.2 and K70 RGB MK.2 SE are priced higher at $170 and $180 respectively.LOOK LATEST TECH HERE....www.precandy.comI don't know why they continue to use a horrible font.I thought I was the only one feeling the new font is bad, why didn’t Corsair reuse K70 font for the new MK2 but to use the ugly LUX font??
