K55 RGB PRO XT

As previously mentioned you get full per-key RGB backlighting, iCUE control but also Game Integrations in games like Far Cry, Hyper Scape and The Division 2. There are dedicated multimedia controls, Stream Deck support, and being membrane-based; silent, waterproof (spill), and made to last as it is sturdy. 

  • Dynamic Per-Key RGB Backlighting: Light up your desktop with ten onboard lighting effects or customize your own vibrant lighting effects with CORSAIR iCUE software.
  • Six Dedicated Macro Keys: Activate functions, shortcuts, or keypresses in just one stroke with six dedicated macro keys, easily set up through CORSAIR iCUE software, or use instant streaming commands through Elgato Stream Deck software.
  • Dust and Spill-Resistant Design: IP42-rated protection guards against accidents so your gameplay never has to stop.
  • Detachable Palm Rest: A soft rubber palm rest reduces stress on your hands so you can play longer in comfort, with a textured surface to keep your hands from slipping.
  • Dedicated Volume and Media Keys: Convenient control for media playback and fine-tuning volume on-the-fly without having to interrupt your game.
  • Powerful CORSAIR iCUE Software: Offers dynamic RGB lighting control, sophisticated macro programming, system-wide lighting synchronization, and much more, all in a single interface that connects all iCUE-compatible CORSAIR devices throughout your setup.
  • iCUE Game Integrations: Experience an unparalleled level of immersion when playing iCUE-integrated games such as Hyper Scape and Tom Clancy’s The Division 2, as your RGB lighting dynamically reacts to in-game actions and events in real-time.
  • Quiet and Responsive Keys: For comfortable typing during both work and play, with a tactile bump for responsive gaming performance.
  • Anti-Ghosting with Selective Key Rollover: Ensures your FPS and MOBA game inputs always register even with simultaneous keypresses.
  • Dedicated Windows Key Lock Button: Prevents accidental Windows and contextual menu keypresses to ensure you’ll never interrupt your game at critical moments.

“The CORSAIR K55 RGB PRO XT Gaming Keyboard lights up your desktop with vibrant dynamic per-key RGB backlighting and powers up your gameplay with six easy to set up dedicated macro keys. The K55 RGB PRO XT is certified for IP42 dust and spill-resistance to stand up to wear, tear, and more, with a detachable palm rest to ensure all-day comfort. Quiet and responsive keys are comfortable for typing or gaming, and dedicated media keys put play, pause, and more within easy reach. CORSAIR ICUE software makes it easy to personalize your lighting and macros, while anti-ghosting and selective key rollover ensure your critical inputs are delivered when they matter most.” – Corsair

Corsair HS65 Wireless Headset review
Headsets are one of the types of peripherals that Corsair offers (there are also PC components, but that’s not a story for this review). It ranges from budget-oriented HS series (the reviewed one is one of them), then there’s the mid-range Void series, and it ends with high-end Virtuoso. The HS series starts with HS35, and till now, it also contained HS45, HS50, HS55, HS60, HS65, HS70, HS75, and HS80 (some of them had different, wireless variants). We’re checking out the all-new Corsair HS65 Wireless in this review (today is the debut).

Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5 6000 CL36 review
In July, Corsair presented a new series of DDR5 memories: the Vengeance RGB DDR5. The available kits from the RGB edition have a frequency higher than the base 4800 MHz (5200-6600 MHz); the non-RGB version starts from 4800 MHz. We are checking the Corsair Vengeance RGB 6000 MHz CL36 DDR5 kit today. It's in the middle frequency in the series. We already had an opportunity (almost three years ago) to review the Vengeance (Pro) RGB series RAM, but it was for the DDR4; the frequency was 3200 MHz, and it received a "Top Pick" award, and also the Vengeance RGB Pro SL which had 3600 MHz frequency (with CL18) and got the "Approved" award. But let's focus back on the tested DDR5 kit.

Corsair Katar Elite​ Wireless mouse review
In this article, we review the Corsair Katar Elite Wireless mouse. It’s an optical gaming mouse that was launched today, on 26.10.2022. The Katar model is a new version of the Katar Pro Wireless that was introduced on October 2020. The Katar Elite Wireless is targeted at gamers, but it should also work more than fine as a regular mouse. This time, the optical sensor is not the 10K DPI PMW3325 but a 26K DPI Corsair Marksman. It has 1 DPI resolutions steps, 650 IPS tracking, and up to 50G acceleration.
