If you want a Corsair mechanical keyboard with red LEDs then you want this K70, the K50 you have linked to is a membrane keyboard, it's also worth considering the different type of key switches used too.

I have the Raptor M40 mouse and it's the best mouse I've ever owned! Definite recommendation

I'm ordering a K30 and an M65 on Tuesday, not that I need a 8200dpi mouse but just because the wife's treating me!

Getting ever so slightly to be a Corsair fanboy brand whore.

Blackbat is right. If you really want the red LEDs, definitely go with the K70. The red looks a lot better compared to the custom red from the K50. Not only that, the fact that it is mechanical as oppose to K50's rubber dome. Which I think to most gamers, mechanical KBs are now preferred over membrane.

As for the M40, I have it myself and tbh, I like it better than my M60. I have no complains about it.
