The keyboard is the main input peripheral used by all computers. The keyboard allows for user input and interaction with the computer. Much like many typewriters the keyboard has all the letters of the alphabet, numbers 0 - 9 and additional special operational keys, e.g. for adjusting the volume or going to your inbox directly. There are three different connection types: - USB is the most modern. You can recognize it by the rectangular connector. - PS/2 connectors are round. This type of connection is fairly commonly used by PC's. - Bluetooth is another modern (wireless) connection method.

Corsair is working that scheme with its gaming keyboards that sport its Corsair Utility Engine (CUE) software. We noted this in our review of the Corsair K65 RGB , a “tenkeyless” mechanical keyboard that, with a hefty price, came packed with features, and...

Last fall, I had the chance to check out Corsair's K70 RGB mechanical keyboard. It was a sturdy, good looking mechanical keyboard with customization options that would make most keyboards slink away in shame by comparison. This year, Corsair is back with...

The Corsair Vengeance range was a step in a different direction for Corsair and one that proved very successful. From the basic K30 to the hugely capable K95 RGB they mixed build quality with a design flair that's rarely seen in the keyboard market.That s...
Bottom line If you're a regular reader of our writings here at OC3D then you'll know that there are certain elements of peripherals, and indeed hardware as a whole, that we take as a given. Therefore requiring extra attention to detail to stand out from the crowd. Wi...

Corsair's beloved sails are back and flying high again with the release of the new STRAFE Mechanical Keyboard. After about a week of use and comparison to the Corsair K70 RGB, surprisingly the STRAFE holds its own in just about all aspects and even surpas...
Bottom line I'm a major fan of the STRAFE keyboard in the roughly $100 price point. The plastic feel of the keys and chassis are not so bad that they are deal breakers, especially given the functionality you get in return. If you are the ultimate showman and need ful...

Corsair may have diversified into the peripherals market a couple of years ago but they currently are one of the most active gaming peripheral developers. The company does well enough in that segment of the market that they recently founded their own gami...
Bottom line In terms of quality, the Corsair Gaming STRAFE Mechanical Gaming keyboard rates much better than most similarly priced keyboards that I have used. It loses some luster and feel over the models with the aluminum frames but the plastics are of very good qua...

Corsair has become a prominent gaming brand in recent years, with expansion into cases they didn't always make themand peripherals. One of Corsair's strongest pursuits has been mechanical keyboards. The company recently released its Strafe mechanical keyb...
Bottom line When I initially used the Corsair Strafe, I had forgotten what it retailed for ($110). After using it for a couple of days, I remembered the price and found myself surprised. I expected the Corsair Strafe to be more expensive. The Strafe is tastefully st...

For the past little while, Cherry's MX clear key switch has been my white whale—not because it can use echolocation to find breathing holes under sea ice, but because I keep meaning to try it out, and it's weirdly hard to come by. Like, unreasonably so. E...
Bottom line The proverbial white whale has surfaced, and it's not quite the be-all, end-all of mechanical key switches that I expected. For my own use, I'm probably going to go back to something with either Cherry MX brown switches or Topre's capacitive electrostati...
