Great Keyboard

This review is from: Corsair CH-9000019-NA Vengeance K70 Mechanical Keyboard
Pros:
Simple, Sturdy Design.
This keyboard doesn't try to do anything too fancy. It's just well built. No overabundance of macro keys (You may not find this as a pro)
It's a mechanical Keyboard
Individual Backlit LEDs
Keycaps are raised - makes it very easy to clean and prevents it from getting very dirty
Cons:
I've had issues with LEDs burning out. About 6 months into owning the keyboard I started to notice that my "g" key was burnt out. Not long after, my 6, 8, tab, q, and f8 keys were all out. I contacted corsair and sent the keyboard for an RMA. Corsair Customer support was very efficient. However, my new k90 6 months or so in currenlty has a dead "E" key LED. I can't justify the shipping cost to get it replaced again.
Overall Review:
If you're looking for your first mechanical keyboard, make sure you know what kind of keycaps you want. I play a wide array of games, and the red keys are very suited to twitch gameplay as they don't take much force at all to click. Personally I'd likely buy a keybaord with blue or brown keys in the future (I love the clickiness), although I still love this keyboard.
