They are both frameless and aluminumchassis. It is big different with my Cherry keyboards simple look. Even though K65 and K95 are positioning for high-end market, comparing to same price segment products, CORSAIR Vengeance look, materials, design and features are surely leading. I really pay attention to keyboard, mouse, monitor and speakers. These parts are not about performance but human touch. It impacts personal feel, comfort and fatigue. Of course Cherry MX Switch price is higher than most rubber dome keyboards. If you consider the durability, and human fatigue, this is worth to invest. Nowadays, many vendors use Cherry MX Switch. I believe users can easier to find your favorite one in your budget. :) This review is also in my blog. WIND3C, any comments are welcome. |
