Cherry MX Red Switches
The K68 keyboard is equipped with Cherry MX Red switches with gold contacts for the enjoyment of gamers. You'll experience smooth, linear key response with an extended activation zone. They have the responsiveness to execute double and triple hits perfectly, without audible clicks or tactile "bumps".
A model suitable for gamers who want fast response times and lively actions to surprise opponents. This gamer keyboard can handle up to 50 million keystrokes.
I was looking for a mechanical keyboard that would make MUCH less noise than my Gaming keyboard which I don't use much. This is really a comfort model, rather massive, with a pleasant hand rest.
The typing is a bit heavier because of the rubber shock absorber plate (forget the 40g of the RED switch) but the touch is still pleasant every day so for me it's a valid purchase, it meets all my criteria and my wife can sleep while I'm redoing the world on the Internet in the evening...

Easy to use
The keys are very high, the movement of the handle is not pleasant despite the presence of the handle rest. The keys are higher than they are wide, and even if it is not for office use, pressing two keys at once is regular.

Robust and comfortable keyboard
I bought this keyboard with a pack of O-rings, small rings to put under each key to reduce noise and typing depth and I am delighted with them. The typing is pleasant, the noise is also good.
This is my first mechanical keyboard (after 20 years of using keyboards) and I have to say that I still make a lot of typing errors on these red linear switches.
If I don't get better, I'm thinking of switching to Cherry Mx brown switches (tactile, non-linear) to "block" the keys adjacent to the one I'm aiming at (thanks to the extra force needed to validate the #tactile input). Think about it if you do a lot of office work.

Good gamer keyboard
I've been using it for gaming (and office use). It's my first aluminium keyboard, so I wasn't expecting it to be so heavy, but it's much more stable than expected, so OK! I didn't dare to test the keyboard, but a lot of videos did it for me.

Very good product
Very good product, solid, sober and efficient. The market lacks normal keyboards: no extra keys for macros, no RGB backlighting that inflates the price, a simple and right sized palm rest (they are often too big and too reimbursed), no super-fast USB hub, no braided wire.The red backlighting is a particular choice. Theoretically, red is less damaging to the eyes at night, and more relaxing. In practice, I would have preferred white. The IP32 certification is achieved by large rubber plates that cover the switches (almost to the top). I find this much more useful than RGB backlighting or macro keys. The keyboard is very comfortable to type on, not as comfortable as Cherry MX green or blue switches (the ones that make noise), but I expected Cherry MX red switches to be more noisy. This keyboard is still noisy. It's surprising as the switches are covered with rubber. I thought the sound of typing would be muffled. Compared to the superior model, the K70, the price-quality ratio is much better, and the problem with the sound of the metal that made me send the K70 back is much smaller.

Excellent quality!
Excellent quality keyboard. It's solid, well made and the button to turn off the light easily is very accessible.
Corsair's software is really handy.
The RGB is only red, so it's not a keyboard that will make rainbows, but frankly, it's very nice, and my setup is red and black, so PERFECT!
The switches are perfect for gaming, very sensitive and with a nice noise. The whole thing feels solid, no play in the keys.

Self-removing key and randomly recognized keyboard
I was very disappointed because I thought I was getting a quality keyboard.
The keyboard I received has 2 defects:
1: The 2 key, disassembles itself when pressed in frequency, when my son plays video games.
2: The keyboard is recognized randomly when the PC boots. When it is not recognised, it is necessary to power down the PC. This is not very good in the long run.
So I have just decided to return this keyboard, despite the lockdown period.
I should point out that the PC works very well with a Cherry keyboard and a Logitech keyboard.

Excellent mechanical keyboard.
The K68 is a good gaming keyboard.
Responsive in game and good overall quality.
However, the letter E sometimes tends to get lost in the game!

Stable and solid
The keyboard is relatively heavy but at least you can be sure that it won't move. You can't press by mistake in game because the keys are relatively hard (just the right amount). I have pain in my left little finger, so it's usually difficult to press the shift key, but now I don't have any problems with this keyboard. The cleaning is easy.
