CORSAIR K95 RGB PLATINUM XT Mechanical Gaming Keyboard Review

Others/Mice & Keyboards by stefan @ 2020-01-06

Since our preferred driver is the K70 RGB MK.2 Low Profile keyboard with MX Speed switches, we felt right at home with the K95 RGB PLATINUM XT so no extra training period was necessary. MX Speed is great for competitive gaming titles since it can deliver very fast response times thanks to the 1.2mm actuation distance, while the actuation force is only 45g but in case of regular typing such as writing large articles it gets a bit tricky if you are constantly switching from Speed to Red, Brown or other types of switches. This last model does bring to the table all the goodies it had with the previous models and also adds integration with Elgato Stream Deck software in case you do not feel the need of purchasing the actual Stream Deck hardware, with more programmable buttons to your disposal.
