Corsair RGB release date.

[Luggs]

It's £140 on corsair website

Hmm, so £40ish more than the standard K70... guess that's fair enough given extra lighting options, especially if sorted out occasional led reliability issues...

 

[Noxia]

Will there be a K95 RGB? That's the one I'd go for.

 

[Luggs]

Yup, details up on their website but no pricing yet. Guess c.£40 uplift on K70 rgb will make the K95 rgb around £170-£180?

(had the tab still open from looking at K70 earlier lol)

DO WANT!

The price will be downright scary though.

Indeed, normal K95 varies wildly from £110 to £150 so guess top end could be as high as £190ish. Lotta dosh for a keyboard...

 

[Noxia]

I suppose I need to think hard as to if I really need the extra keys I've been doing ok without for now.

Looks like end of September for US release. 10-keyless version available as well.

Hope it lands in the UK at the same time, or shortly after.

 

[Luggs]

Hmm, yes looks like K65, K70 and K95 are all released end of sept but exclusively at a US retailer for an undisclosed amount of time...

Really not sure what this means for UK?

 

[Eddieg]

Nothing. All the models will be sold normally outside the US. Also, just the K65 is a timed exclusive for that retailer in the US, not the originally announced K70 and K95.

It' won't be as late as decemember Gawd NDA is such cack I wish I could tell you and you could just order it but i can't and you can't

Putting the confidential date of release aside, will you be taking pre-orders? If so what do I need to do to place my pre-order?

 

[TwsT]

information will be made available once the nda is lifted.

Razer Chroma comes out on sept 29th, with new switches aswell. Really at an impasse whether to wait for this or just go with the chroma.

This is obviously just based on what I've seen and more importantly, product imagery... The Chroma seems to be plastic, whereas the RGB is aluminium. General consensus is Kaihl switches aren't as favored as Cherry MX (this could be more of a personal thing though, in all honesty). Then there's the big one for most people- the Chroma has no media keys.

 

[altrewin]

Still waiting on the K70 RGB, I keep looking at the white led Ducky Shines but I prefer the style/design of the K70 I also looked at the stock K70 a couple of times but the red leds just don't fit with what I have.

Shame it's US surely the nda must have lifted if Amazon are shipping? Seen a few unboxing video's popping up from people who have received there's so why don't we have a UK release date yet?
