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 Vengeance RGB Pro SL 3600 MHz 32GB review
Today, we are checking the Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro SL 3600 MHz CL18 (pretty average latency figure) memory in a 32 GB set consisting of two 16 GB modules. This is not the first time we’re looking at the Corsair RAM. It was for example the Vengeance RGB Pro (4x8 GB 3200MHz) or Dominator Platinum (4x8 GB 3600 MHz CL16). Ok, but what’s different comparing the above mentioned Vengeance RGB Pro series?

Corsair K70 RGB TKL keyboard review
The Corsair K70 RGB TKL comes from a range of keyboards that we already presented here on guru3d. We reviewed the K70 RGB Rapidfire Mk2, which comes also in a low-profile version. So, the first major difference this time is the tenkeyless format. Other than that, this keyboard has not changed much as far as the general concept is concerned. It is, of course, still an RGB mechanical keyboard, but this time it comes in a smaller package.
