Corsair Vengeance K90 Performance MMO Mechanical Gaming Keyboard Review

Others/Mice & Keyboards by stefan @ 2012-02-17

The K90 Performance MMO Gaming Keyboard from Corsair is a solid product and comes with a combination of MX Red switches and silicone domes (the domes are only used for the less frequent used keys). On the left we have no less than 18 programmable keys and thanks to the extra 3 memory banks, we can assign a total of 54 macros on a single profile. The product integrates very well with the previously reviewed M90 mouse and the software is unified so we can access both mouse and keyboard interfaces from the same menu.

In the middle there is the Corsair logo, carefully covered with a thin and transparent plastic film, to avoid scratches during transport:

 

 

 

Further to the right, we can find the keyboard backlight button and a Windows key lock button:

All keys are laser-etched, backlit and have a rubbery feel to them:

 

 

 

After turning the keyboard on the other side, we can find the all-black portion of the chassis, made of plastic:

 

 

 

On the corners, we can locate small rubber feet, which keep the product steady on the table:

 

 

 

The keyboard is also provided with tiny plastic feet, which we can use to raise it a bit at an angle, if needed:
