The wrist rest. You don't have to use it as you can clip it on or off, but admittedly it is quite comfortable to use it during gaming. The surface is made using dimpled rubber that helps ventilate and grip your wrist even when it is sweating, it feels more sturdy then the one the K60 has.

The rest itself is made out of plastic, for both gaming and productivity it feels good. Though I guess it depends on personal preference whether or not you'll use this rest.

The K90 keyboard has a block of 18 G-keys located to the left side, next to that it has three macro key sets, so you can program 54 macros in total. We'll look at that in a tidbit with the software. The G-Keys are located quite closer to the normal function keys and inevitably you'll by accident likely press a G key where you wanted to press the shift key as they are close together. A problem we see at Logitech keyboards a lot as well.

Macro recording is great, select the key, press MR (which starts flashing red) and program the macro. Again we'll show you that in a tidbit.

Mind you that this being a mechanical keyboard in the qwerty area you can easily install new keys just pull them up gently and they'll be lifted out of place. Underneath you'll find standardized Cherry MX red switches.

And here's also where we'll show you the blue LED backlighting. You can select three different brightness mode. It certainly brings a little niche to the K90. It's good looking set of keys alright.

The G keys are lit with white LEDs, a little less bright and subtle alright. Overall a great looking motherboard. Sturdy design, the wrist rest, the mechanical keys, the aluminum finish. It all works out well. But what about functionality and usage you might wonder ?
