As mentioned, that the wrist rest is detachable. You don't have to use it as you can clip it on or off, but admittedly it is quite comfortable to use it for gaming. The surface is made using somewhat dimpled plastic that helps ventilate and grip your wrist even when it is sweating. The rest itself is made out of plastic, for both gaming and productivity, it feels good. It depends on personal preference whether or not you'll use this rest.
 

All keys on the K68 have little RGB back-light LEDs, these are all configurable in color and animation. With two buttons located at the top you can choose to en/disable them or alternatively dim the keys in three stages as explained on the previous page already, this obviously also can be done in the CUE software.

As you can see, now there's much ambient back-lighting on, based on your preferences you can light up the keys in three dimmed stages. The brightest mode, as shown above, can actually be too bright at twilight and night time I feel. It's great to have that option really. This all certainly brings a little niche to any RGB lit keyboard. It's good looking set of keys alright.
 

You can also opt to just enable the WASD, arrow or numeric keys. Overall a great looking motherboard. Sturdy design, the wrist rest, the mechanical keys, the anodized black aluminum finish just makes this keyboard pop out.
 

Also, I need to mention that the keys can be individually lit. You hit the program software, then select the keys you want lit, assign a color or animation, and done. It all works out well, especially since there are profiles you can download, import and use.
 

And if you want to configure the keyboard purely for an aesthetic reason say a little tranquility in your color style, that can be achieved just as well.
