A better built, more professional looking product can be gotten for less money, and it'll have standard key layout, too. For less than the price of this board, you can get a full size RGB board that's macro programmable (Ducky makes at least one), a 60% (no numpad or arrow cluster) for portability, or any number of "TKL" (no number pad) boards for a space compromise on the desk. But let's say you don't need that, either. ![]() Keycap sets are a great way to change the look of one's mechanical keyboard, and allow for customization beyond even what RGB can do (since in that case, it'll always only be lettering and underglow.) The Corsair boards are somewhat infamous in r/mk for having a non-standard layout in the bottom row of keys, making compatibility with keycap sets difficult at best. Not everyone needs that, but then there's another factor: keycap compatibility. There are much smaller options that can be carried around for use in multiple setups, or with laptops/tablets. It's a full size board with extra keys, and has a large frame, making it take up a ton of desk space. Mechanical switches (and most people consider Cherry MX to be highly quality), metal construction, macro keys, and RGB controllable lighting with a great controller and software setup. ![]() That said, here's my take: the Corsair K95 Platinum has some notable aantages over forum standard Dell or HP membrane. I include myself in that, but I'm not as good at explaining it as some other people. R/MechanicalKeyboards would have some interesting things to say about this.
