Our friends over at Corsair more or less have their bread and butter
memory products to rely on to bring in the dough, and these are no
ordinary memory products but rather, ones that are on the high end side
of things. The thing is, they have also learned not to place all of
their eggs in a single basket, which is why it made sense for them to
take the plunge into the world of gaming peripherals. It is also nice to
know that Corsair has also brought along with them their sense of
achievement, which means you would not end up with slipshod work on
their side – and their latest product would be the all new STRAFE
Mechanical Gaming Keyboard.
Corsair Gaming’s red-backlit STRAFE
mechanical gaming keyboard would bring along with it dynamic
backlighting for that added visual punch (and hopefully, one that helps
you cast a mean aura to your opponents at BYOC events or LAN parties) as
well as Cherry MX key switches, all for an asking price of $109.99 a
pop. Being different from other gaming keyboard offerings in the past
like the Corsair Gaming RGB Keyboard,
the STRAFE mechanical gaming keyboard’s brilliant red backlighting is
fully customizable, allowing you to have a virtually unlimited number of
lighting configurations as well as effects. Not only that, hardcore
gamers will also appreciate the fact that each of these keys can be
programmed with automated macros via CUE (Corsair Utility Engine)
software. Users are able to select from half a dozen unique lighting
effects or to craft their own custom profiles as well as share them
online later on.
Apart from that, the German-made Cherry MX red switches with gold
contacts would pave the way for fast, precise key presses, while the
fully programmable brilliant red LED backlighting delivers unrivaled
personalization. In addition, there is also an USB pass-through port for
easy connections, while textured and contoured FPS/MOBA keycaps
accompanied by 100% anti-ghosting technology with 104-key rollover makes
your gaming experience a smooth and seamless one. There’s now one less
thing to blame when you lose your next match, I guess.
