Which K70 to purchase

ArchangelPT · Aug 27, 2016

I was eyeing the K70 Rapidfire RGB but then noticed i could buy a regular K70 for almost half the price.

Is RBG worth the extra 60 bucks?

Also, between Cherry MX Blue, Red and Brown which do you think i should pick. It would go along with a Black Corsair M65 PRO and a Black Fractal Design Define R4

No it isn't, just fancy lighting.
Cherry MX Blue is a great starting point into mechanical keyboards, provides great tactile feedback and feel, and they are my personal favorite switches.
What is your budget and what country are you in?
Also given your Corsair theme, I suggest picking up an MM200 Extended edition mousepad for $20 or so to add to your setup, will make it look much better.

I was actually thinking about picking up the red switches since i've been playing a lot of Overwatch lately

They're supposedly better for FPSs right?

Not necessarily.
They are more linear, and have a 5g lighter acuation force (45g compared to 50g), and are marketed as a gaming switch as a result.
If you want faster actuation, go for the MX Speed switches on the K70 Rapidfire.
They have a 35g actuation force.

I saw that but there's no Rapidfire option without RGB

Yeah, that's something you have to consider.
In your case I recommend the K70 cherry MX Red non-RGB, will save you a good chunk of cash!

Enjoy!
