Know before you buy
Hall Effect switches use magnetic sensors rather than physical contact points, which allows for more durability and the ability to customize the actuation point of each key. This technology enables advanced features like Rapid Trigger, which resets the key instantly upon release for faster, more responsive inputs.
Rapid Trigger allows the keyboard to register a key release the moment you move your finger upward, rather than waiting for the key to reset to a fixed point. This makes strafing and rapid-fire inputs significantly faster and more precise, giving you a distinct advantage in fast-paced shooters.
The TKL layout removes the dedicated number pad, which saves desk space and allows for a more ergonomic mouse position. While it is excellent for gaming, users who frequently input large amounts of numerical data may find the lack of a dedicated number pad less convenient.
Yes, the K70 PRO TKL features full RGB backlighting that can be customized through Corsair's software. You can adjust individual key colors, lighting effects, and brightness levels to match your setup.
Yes, this model is designed specifically for a wired connection. This ensures the lowest possible latency and consistent performance, which is a priority for competitive gamers who want to avoid the potential interference or battery concerns of wireless peripherals.
