Corsair - K95 RGB PLATINUM XT Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

I personally love corsair keyboards, first mechanical was a k55, then a k95 rgb platinum, now on a k100 rgb platinum. I

Been using the K95 platinum for years, seriously solid keyboard. This keyboard would have been a 10/10 experience but iCUE.

K95 and Nightsword mouse have been fantastic for me since moving to Linux a couple years ago. No software is needed but ckb-next is available in most repositories afaik (dnf's for sure) to configure most Corsair devices and their lighting.

Corsair k95 platinum RGB works well for me. Order it with the cherry switch type you want.

UPDATE: I went with Cherry MX browns. I know I like those the best out of everything I've tried. Hey all. I’m a big fan of Cherry MX switches, and I am thinking of getting a new keyboard. My first mechanical keyboard, a Logitech G610 Orion, had Cherry MX Browns, which I first used at home for gaming and then later took to work. I loved that keyboard as it wasn’t THAT loud but the tactile feel of the keys felt solid. When Covid hit and I worked from home, I bought myself a Logitech Orion Spectrum G910… and I promptly returned it as it was needlessly huge and I did not care for the aesthetics or the switches. Then I got a Logitech G815 with GL clicky switches. I loved the soft click but did not like the low profile keys and eventually they also developed bad wobble, so it too had to go. After that I went a completely different direction and got a Corsair K70 RGB TKL Champion Series with the Cherry MX Speed switches. I’ve liked Corsair keyboards ever since. This keyboard was AWESOME to game on, but I found it very difficult to type accurately on. I got a new 100% work from home job back at the end of 2023 and so I got a Corsair K95 Platinum XT with Cherry MX blue switches (this is my current keyboard). I love the build quality and feel of this keyboard. It is simply awesome for working, but after having it some time, I’m finding myself pretty overstimulated by the noise when gaming on it. It’s a shame because it really is the best keyboard I’ve ever had and will last a long time and the key press to me feel so solid and true. Now I am at a point where I am thinking of replacing it for something quieter (and my wife would probably be a lot happier too). I am considering the Corsair K70 Pro RGB with either Cherry MX browns or reds. I know I liked the browns for work and gaming, but also know that I loved the linear MX speeds for gaming but found them too sensitive for work. I’m not the best typist and do tend to type heavy and bottom out my keys. Should I stick to what I know and get browns to give me that tactile resistance I like for work? Or take a chance and go with reds? Are the reds like the MX speeds in that I will find them too sensitive for work? I will add that the entire time I went through different keyboards at home, my original Logitech G610 with browns continued to serve me well for years at work until I moved jobs.

I have a corsair k95 rgb platinum, and now im looking for a new keyboard i would like to at least see some options of magnetic keyboards, but if there is any mechanical keyboards yall recommend i would also like it, a good plus would be wireless, im kinda lost tbh im not too tech savy regarding keyboard and its making me go crazy trying to understand it all haha. edit: any good guides on how to understand this new world are apreciated!

I liked it so much that I bought a K95 for the house and took this one to work. Keep it clean, it'll come with a pry tool for the keys, I keep mine covered when not in use and dust it every few months. Dust can make its way into the caps and if it builds up you risk key chatter (multiple entries for one press). Neither board has shown any RGB issue with color or responsiveness. Mine are both several years old now and still doing great.

Top notch keyboard, had that before I went with their newer version of it.

I currently have a Corsair K95 which has programmable macro keys on the left side, as a left hand gamer it helps with MMO games. I'm currently looking for other options and would love to hear some recommendations

Corsair k95 all the way! it is fully supported by ckb-next and mine has been running for years now without issue... though there was a compatibility issue with the volume control wheel... and my coffee one morning...
