Gamers can be a fickle lot, and it can get pretty tricky trying to figure out what it is exactly that they are looking for. Well, if you have been waiting to pick up a new gaming keyboard for the longest time, but have never really managed to get around to it, perhaps you might want to see what the Corsair Vengeance K70 is all about, where this mechanical gaming keyboard has been specially designed for PC gaming performance with German-made Cherry MX mechanical keyswitches for that ultimate gaming experience.

I am quite sure that gamers too, would have heard about Corsair because of their exploits in the RAM department as well as SSD storage. They aren’t a slouch in the high-performance PC gaming hardware department, either, having announced the award-winning Vengeance K70 mechanical gaming keyboard to arrive in black aluminum with red backlit keys, where it will also be available with Cherry MX Blue and Brown keyswitches, if variety is what you would like to have in your life.

First of all, your eyes will definitely appreciate the sophisticated aesthetics that have gone into the refreshed Vengeance K70 gaming keyboard, where it sports an anodized black aluminum chassis for long-lasting durability and timeless style. There is also a vibrant red backlight that shines through each key, oozing an industrial look that is capable of complimenting any gamer set up. The overall backlighting is adjustable to four different levels of intensity, where the lighting for each key can be independently enabled or disabled. There is key-by-key lighting customization that opens the door for users to highlight just the keys they require to emphasize, including WASD, before one saves the setting directly to the K70′s onboard memory.

You should not miss a keystroke ever again, thanks to its 100% anti-ghosted matrix, full n-key rollover and 1000Hz reporting rate, while multimedia controls provide you with quick access to volume, skip tracks, play, stop, and pause. There are also a nifty USB port that supports accessories including Corsair’s very own Vengeance gaming headset or mouse. Expect the new versions of the Vengeance K70 gaming keyboard to be available this month with an asking price of $129.99, where each of these will feature a 2 year warranty.

What do you think of the USB flash drive? I am quite sure that we have more or less seen our fair share of it over the years, so much so that many of us would have also amassed quite a “collection”, so to speak, from all of those press conferences that we have attended over the years, not to mention the various showfloors and conventions where exhibitors decide that USB flash drives are the way to go instead of DVDs. Well, each geek would need their very own USB flash drive, as I always claim, and you would not be able to put a foot wrong with what Corsair has on offer – delivering the Corsair Flash Voyager GO USB 3.0 flash drive in capacities of 64GB, 32GB, and 16GB.

The Corsair Flash Voyager GO USB 3.0 flash drive will come across as an exceptionally lightweight, thumb-sized drive, where it will obviously arrive with a USB as well as a Micro-USB connector for that added touch of convenience. This would be able to deliver convenient data transfer, where it would be useful when working in tandem alongside PCs, notebooks, and Micro-USB OTG-compatible Android phones and tablets.

Thanks to the Micro-USB connector on the Flash Voyager GO, it would pave the way for the transfer of videos, music, and photos from and between OTG-compatible Android devices while the USB 3.0 connector makes it a snap for easy and fast storage of those files to and between desktop and laptop computers. Apart from that, the Corsair Flash Voyager GO USB 3.0 flash drive would also be able to double up as a form of convenient storage expansion when it comes to OTG-compatible phones and tablets, helping free up precious device memory long the way.

The Flash Voyager GO would support USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 for high-speed transfer speeds of up to 135 MB/s, where it will be accompanied by a durable keychain and two caps, with one black and the other yellow in color. The Flash Voyager GO will come in 16GB, 32GB and 64GB capacities, retailing for $19.99, $29.99 and $49.99, respectively.

[CES 2014] The Corsair MX RGB Project happens to be a collection of 100% mechanical keyswitches that boasts of a per-key 16.8 million color backlighting which will end up, fingers crossed, as the most amazing gaming keyboard that you will ever lay your eyes upon. Yes, even more than the Optimus keyboards of the past that cost a bomb and took forever to hit the market, albeit in extremely limited quantities.

California-based Corsair and Germany-based Cherry Corp. are the ones behind the debut of the “MX RGB Project” gaming keyboard, where it can be best described to be a technology showcase than anything else. The Corsair MX RGB Project happens to be based on a Vengeance K70 gaming keyboard that has been fitted with new Cherry MX RGB keyswitches, so that gamers will be able to enjoy the vast level of customization and game enhancing benefits of per-key 16.8 million color backlighting. It will surely make playing in the dark extremely distracting, hopefully more for your opponents than for yourself! Expect the second half of this year to see the Corsair MX RGB Project being brought to life – i.e., the market, and it will arrive in several Cherry switch types of super-fast Cherry MX Red, the light tactile feedback of Cherry MX Brown, or the tactile and audible feedback provided by Cherry MX Blue.
