I purchased quite some keyboards in the last while and want to write down some pro's and con's if you are in the market for a new keyboard. The contenders are: Corsair K95 RGB. Razer blackwidow Chroma. Razer blackwidow Stealth (2012). Roccat Ryos MK FX. First of all the K95 RGB: Pro's: Easy to clean. Very sleek sexy brushed aluminium design. Alot of dedicated macro key's. Dedicated media keys and volume slider. Dedicated profile switch buttons. Very nice soft wrist rest. Con's: No onboard memory- requires windows to be loaded to work. Does remember lightning. Led's are on its brightest setting not as bright as the razer chroma. Led effects are stuttering and not smooth. No USB passthrough or audio/mic passthrough. While being Cherry brown keys, do not feel as nice as the blackwidow stealth wich also has cherry brown keys. (asked and used by 2 writers and me- a gamer. Not able to assign a macro or function to a combination of keys. In reality 256 colors. Razer Blackwidow Chroma: Pro's: Smooth lightning effects, all million lightning colors. Cherry blue clone keys, wich always make click sounds, not my style and can't recommend it for gamers at all. The 2 typers i asked to give their opinion also say they prefer brown for typing. Brightest led's of all keyboards. Audio/mic passthrough. Con's: Buggy software (for me anyway) Again no multiple key combination macro or function assignment. No onboard memory- requires windows to be loaded to work. Does remember lightning. No wrist rest. Plastic. Razer Blackwidow Stealth (2012): Pro's: Absolutely wins in the feel of the keys. While it has the same cherry brown keys it simply feels better, smoother and faster then the other keyboards. Con's: Buggy software (for me anyway) Again no multiple key combination macro or function assignment. No onboard memory- requires windows to be loaded to work. Does remember lightning. No wrist rest. Plastic. No RGB lightning. No light effects. Roccat Ryos MK FX: -soon-
