Looking for a new gaming keyboard? There's a new entrant in the market.
Corsair introduced the K70 PRO TKL keyboard on Thursday, giving PC players a new option for their setups. Corsair's latest offering includes several of the company's big technical features, including FlashTap, which allows you to prioritize specific key input so that if multiple keys are pressed in a panic playing a fast-paced shooter like a Call of Duty game, you still react appropriately. It remains to be seen if the K70 PRO TKL can stack up with the best gaming keyboards out there, but it could be a contender.
Another important feature is Rapid Trigger, which allows Corsair keyboards to reset a key instantly thanks to pressure sensors, ensuring consecutive key presses are all registered properly. Naturally, as a TKL gaming keyboard (meaning tenkeyless, referring to the loss of the numeric pad normally on the right side) it's smaller than many full-sized gaming keyboards, making it more suitable for a smaller desk setup.
MGX Hyperdrive technology is designed to ensure each key press is consistent over and over again, something that's backed up by the two-year warranty included with the keyboard. The Corsair K70 PRO TKL gaming keyboard is now available at various retailers for $180. This pricing places it firmly on the higher end of the K70 series of Corsair keyboards (many of which are available starting at just $80) but just below the premium K100 lineup, which often runs for $200 or more.
The K70 PRO TKL is wired-only, so that's something you'll want to take into consideration if you're looking to upgrade your current setup or putting a new build together.
Setting your preferences
As with other Corsair keyboards, if you want to tweak different settings or adjust key actuation (which goes all the way from 0.1mm to 4mm) then you'll be doing it through Corsair's iCEU software. If you don't have it yet, you can download the latest version for free directly from Corsair.
