Hows it going guys. Unfortunately not very good for me. My $140 Corsair K70 Mechanical keyboard is having problems. I recorded a video of the problem occurring. Click here for link. Notice the window sound every time the LEDs come on and shut off. When this is happening I have zero functionality of the keyboard. It also causes lag on my computer whenever it disconnects/reconnects. This problem has persisted for about 3-5 months now but up until last night it wasn't really a big deal as it only happened once every couple of days. But now its happening every couple of minutes. Last night my mouse started bugging out (scroll wheel). At first I thought it was my keyboard so I unplugged my keyboard and other devices for good measure but left my mouse plugged in. This confirmed that it was a problem with my mouse so I plugged everything else back in including my keyboard. This is when my keyboard problem started occurring much much more frequently than before. I have a feeling though that I might be having problems with my USB ports but I doubt it. I'm going to test my keyboard on my laptop and see if the problem persists there. This would rule out my USB ports being the issue. Nonetheless I need to get down to the bottom of this and I feel like you guys can help. My keyboard disconnected atleast 10 times while I was writing this
