    Does this keyboard come with LSD?

    also hows it compare in brightness to something like a saitek keyboard?

    I owned an eclipse II for years and it was amazing then when i got the logitech g110 i've been so fucking disappointed by the back-lighting because even at highest intensity's it's nearly impossible to see.

    TLR, I like bright keyboards, is it REALLY bright?
    I had a Saitek Eclipse prior to my G110, and I was also disappointed with the backlighting of that keyboard. I had the G110 until I upgraded to the BlackWidow Ultimate 2013. The BlackWidow blacklighting is probably some of the brightest I've seen.

    With that in mind, the K70 RGB is probably similar in lighting to the Saitek. Definitely much brighter than the G110, but not quite as bright as the BlackWidow. Though, the BlackWidow was so bright that I typically kept it at around 30% brightness.

    Yes, absolutely!

    You can create "profiles" in the software, which you can then link to specific programs. The software will automatically switch to those profiles when it detects the program is running. Every profile can have multiple modes, which you can cycle between with an assigned hotkey (and you can set it to be any key you want, normally an unused key). You can also assign a hotkey to cycle between entire profiles if you'd like, but I'm fairly sure that using this will take they software out of "Automatic Profile Selection" mode until you put it back in. That means to auto profiles for programs until you manually put it back into Auto switching mode.

    Not yet. There has been rumors about Corsair opening up the software at some point. Probably after it is out of beta, but for now the software is definitely beta.

    Looks cool for sure.

    Been using old PS/2 keyboards since I started using computers. They work.

    Not if they get unplugged while Windows is running. Have fun restarting your PC.

    Just pre ordered the Razer Chroma. Same idea as this, but DOES come with an API for altering how the colors work when you do things in game.

    Hope they fixed all the problems with the firmware/software in it.

    My BlackWidow Ultimate 2013 is unusable after the first login because subsequent logins cause the keyboard to start repeating the enter/return key forever until you quit the software. The firmware update was supposed to fix that specifically, and yet it's still happening... Razer support can't help me either, hence switching to Corsair instead of waiting for the Chroma!

    TBH, I'd cancel pre-order until you know if they've fixed the problems in the firmware or not.

    Then you are one of the few lucky people who can claim that. PS/2 wasn't designed for plug and play or hot plugging.
