For USB 3.0 - Use one connector (keyboard icon) when connecting to a 3.0 port
For USB 2.0 - Use both connectors. Plug in the connector with the two arrows icon first and then the connector with the keyboard icon second.

OK Grey thanx.....I worked it out in the end , glad I did too...as my PC now boots faster ..plus imm not still getting " USB Device Not Recognised " 
Do you guys know when the RGB Browns will be back in stock? Already pre-ordered, but no say on the dates
Asking in the Customer Service section of the forum might get you an answer - Pre-Sales Queries
No, and their customer service is abysmal.

It's a nice piece of hardware and i don't regret the purchase but i think yes and no is the best answer
. Yes: You can set different profiles to run with different games i.e. for Tomb Raider i have one set up where the main controls are in red and others (weapon selection and interaction etc) are orange and unused keys are unlit, but for Blood Dragon the whole keyboard lights up in neon pink/blue/purple.
No: If the above stuff doesn't interest you then no it probably isn't
And like one guy said the whole flashing rippling thing is a good showpiece but really not much use while doing any gaming as it gets annoying after a while. TBH i really only bought it because of the ability to change the colours (if you buy a nice k/b that is only 1 colour (lets say it cost ~£100) to match your case lighting but you get bored of the colour and want to change you're either stuck with it or lose some money selling it to get a different one).
Those are just my personal thoughts/ramblings ofc and others will think differently.

Same here
I heard it's because they are not being manufactured anymore so their isn't any stock going out to retailers.
Might just have to look at a totally different keyboard
It's probably worth paying the extra ~£30 over a non-RGB K70, as you have a far better chance of not getting faulty LEDs after a few months of use.

If that's true, it's a real shame. May have to look at non-Corsair products then
(hint hint)
not that I want to

I'm sorry that you feel that way. I'd like to know what happened, so I can address it and prevent it from ever happening again.
Its the MX Blue switches that has been discontinued. MX Reds and Browns are still being manufactured for all RGB Keyboards.
I do have a RGB Keyboard K95 and I regret buying it. The problems it as with steam is beyond a joke at times it will just freeze the lighting effects.
Unfortunately I am unable to return it. I wish I got the Vengeance like i was going to but the pretty lights lured me like a moth to the flame.

I was talking about the standard K70.

That's not what I want to hear as I'm really keen on the RGB K70. I'd rather have the Vengeance, but can't find them!
It might just I am one of the unfortunate ones Snips...
But when I got it around November the firmware was so messed up and the Cue software was pretty bad.
Sure the updates to the firmware and Cue Software help but they do not solve the issues of freezing in steam, there is no way they did not see this in testing.
If a game locks up (my experience) it will freeze the profile. And I have tried a lot of profiles and lighting effects.
I am sure lots of people will and can say nothing like this happens to them... (Lucky *******s
