User questions & answers

Question:	Can you take off the keycaps
Answer:	i take them off all the time. just pull iff ajd to out them back on, just line them up nice and even then with your thumb press down fast with a moderate amount of pressure and it just clicks right back in
Question:	Does the light shine through the keys
Answer:	The light shines through the text on the keys and also in the background of the whole keyboard
Question:	Can you make the keyboard just one color
Answer:	Yes, of course. Pressing Fn 8 will cycle through all 8 available colors for the entire keyboard. Now pay close attention to what I’m about to tell you, because many (if not most) keyboard manufacturers are going to try to fool you into buying their “RGB” keyboard. The entire RGB spectrum is comprised of 16.8 million colors including white (to gradually lighten the basic colors) and black (to gradually darken the basic colors) Without the white and black, the RGB spectrum is TINY. Unfortunately, this keyboard doesn’t provide the white and the black. So in this case, “RGB” colors are simple, single colors (as in: Blue + Red = Purple), NOT the entire spectrum. Most “RGB” keyboards only use 6 to 10 colors, not 16.8 million. Also, individual keys CANNOT be assigned specific colors. Some “RGB” keyboards use a “zone” lighting system in which the colors can only change in big chunks of the keyboard. By-the-way, most low-cost “RGB” keyboards use a similar system, NOT individually-assigned keys (per-key lighting) like on a $200 mechanical keyboard. What do you expect for a budget keyboard?
Question:	Is it mechanical
Answer:	It's definitely a membrane keyboard. If you are looking for a Corsair mechanical keyboard then check out the K68 or K70.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does it noise a lot? will it annoy my co workers in an open work floor environment
Answer:	A clicky mechanical keyswitch such as a Cherry MX Blue or Green or Brown, will make a relatively loud click even if you type very lightly. Pounding the keys won’t make the clicks any louder. If you pound the keys and “bottom” them out, they will make a little more noise. If you whack them with a 16-pound sledge hammer as hard as you can, you can get them to be a little louder. Make sense?
Question:	Are the "Enter" and "Shift" keys supposed to feel different than the other keys when pressed? It only seems to be affecting the two that are close
Answer:	I just got mine and I also notice shift,caps, tab, space all have a heavier feel to push them. I am not sire if that's how it is supposed to feel though.
Question:	How many usb plugs need to be plugged into your computer
Answer:	The K95 requires 2 USB 2.0 ports (one for the keyboard itself and one for the USB passthrough). However, if your computer has an available USB 3.0 port, that one port will handle BOTH the keyboard AND the passthrough.
Question:	What different between cherry mx brown / cherry mx speed
Answer:	The GUNMETAL K95 keyboard only comes with the Cherry MX Speeds. The Speeds are VERY sensitive (“hair-triggered” or "touchy") and linear. That's what you want for gaming so your inputs register as quickly as possible. Such a keyboard, however, is not ideal for everyday typing and would take a long time to get used to and your typing would be very error-prone. The BLACK K95 keyboard comes with a CHOICE of either the Cherry MX Speeds OR the Cherry MX Browns. The Browns are NOT linear—they are TACTILE, aren't nearly as touchy as the Speeds and make for wonderful everyday typing and a good compromise for gaming.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this low profile mk2 supply brown mechanical key switches
Answer:	Only Cherry MX Red and Cherry MX Speed for now.
Question:	Tienen el teclado en español? En otras palabras con la tecla
Answer:	منتج جدا جميل
Question:	What is the best for a typist
Answer:	Even if I press the keyboard, my wrist is stressed so i think MX RED is best type, others are vary from company to company and everyone feels different. You should try several keyboards and decide.
Question:	For a student/gamer, what switch between the red and the browns would you recommend? Student above gamer
Answer:	tl;dr Brown switches are probably what you want.I'm a bit late to answer but, brown will be your best bet. Red and brown have the same low actuation force, at 45 cN. This means the keys require less pressure than say, the Cherry blue or black switches which have 50 cN and 60 cN respectively. The difference between red and brown is that brown switches are considered tactile, meaning it's easier to tell when the key has been pressed because there's a noticeable bump to confirm it. This makes brown preferred by people who type a fair amount but also game because it has the tactile feedback of blue and the low actuation force of red. Red is preferred by some gamers who'd rather not have the bump, since every millisecond matters in some games they'd prefer to reduce resistance in the switches as much as possible. For even faster response time the speed switches are the way to go; they are basically red switches but they actuate (register that you've pressed the key) at 1.2mm instead of 2mm.

User questions & answers

Question:	which better for gaming the ? the rapidfire vs. the lux with red switches
Answer:	I had the Cherry MX red switches before I got the Rapidfire and the speed switches feel completely different to me. The red switches were clunky and fatiguing to write on. With the speed switches, my fingers just fly.

Question:	Hello, how could i get this keyboard on qwerty spanish language? (already look in amazon spain, i'm from colombia, south america

Question:	Does those macro key have onboard memory so I can use them without dowloading the software again when I switch to a new computer
Answer:	You can set a default then flash it to the keyboard. I believe my old default was red but I switched it to rainbow. It would be rainbow until my software kicked in to load my gaming set mode
