We review the Corsair Vengeance K95 mechanical keyboard with Cherry MX Red switches. The K95 is the flagship successor in the popular Vengeance keyboard series and, while it uses the same basis and concept, but it adds some more features, is much more cool looking with full LED lit programmable keys, and has a trick or two encompassed in the new design as well as programmable G keys, a feature much desired by many of you.

Today's tested set of keys for example comes in black anodized aluminum, and it just looks incredible, though I'll immediately acknowledge that taste is a very subjective thing. Still, looking at what Corsair offers with the Vengeance K95 gaming keyboard brings a smile to my face, especially since it now has full LED lit keys. So from an aesthetics viewpoint, Corsair just gets it. The K95 is a mechanical RTS gaming keyboard. The previous series received some criticism on products like the K60 and K90, so the concept was overhauled a bit. For example, every key is now mechanical, using Cherry MX Red key-switches. So yes, the K95 is 100% mechanical. New also is per-key adjustable back-lighting, using white LEDs, so that you can customize which keys are lit, according to the game you’re playing. Though we received the black anodised aluminum version, the standard brushed silver aluminum frame is available as well, though I definitely prefer black anodised aluminum.
