Cooler Master Quick Fire XTi keyboard review - Product Showcase

Once connected and the PC powered up we can distill the product to one word, subtlety. A combo of red and blue colored LEDs welcome us. Based on a combination of the function key and another keys like 1-2-3- combo you can change the LED lighting preferences and/or macro profile system. Obviously you'll have a few animation options available as well as brightness modes. 

There's not much going on at the backside. It has rubber feet and you can use standoffs as well to allow a little more height and create an angled position. The keyboard feels heavy (it is just over 1 KG), and combined with rubber feet will ensure you from the keyboard sliding away. It has a very tight grip on my rather slippery desktop.
 

The Quick Fire XTi uses a dark braided USB cable that is almost two meters in length. The keyboard does not offer any other USB connectivity as in a hub or something, there's just one cable which you connect to your PC and that is it.
 

As you very likely know, Cherry MX keys can be swapped, as such Cooler master is delivering a keycap puller and one extra key with Cooler Master logo. No other keys are included. It probably would have been a nie idea to add additional rugged WASD keys or something.

Media controls for volume etc might not have their own separated keys, but they are located as function key under your DEL/HOME/Insert key etc, so you do more with less basically.
