   This keyboard works fairly well, and has decent features. The media controls and lighting are nice. I cannot comment on the G# buttons because the software is utterly broken in WINE on Linux. This takes much from the keyboard’s potential. Which takes 1 star off for me.

   However, 2 stars are marked off for other reasons. The problem comes instead from the typing itself. There is full/long travel for each key, which is not great. And recently, ~7 months, after purchasing I am already running into sticky, un-pressable keys. First was the 0-key on the number pad, then the arrows started. The limited lifespan of the silicon membrane can’t even be reached due to poor key slider design.

   I would NOT recommend this product for the price. Not due to Linux issues or gaming reasons, but because it could not do its main job for long.

   This keyboard worked perfectly the first time I plugged it in. After plugging it in again, it shut down, and half the keys no longer work. Buy from a different manufacturer.

   Edit: Apparently, this is a problem the manufacturer knows about, and hasn’t corrected. Save your money, go with a cheaper keyboard. I ended up with a CM Storm keyboard and mouse for less than the cost of the single keyboard, and it not only feels better, and works better, but it includes a mouse as well

   I have a 17.3″ HP Elitebook that I use for gaming. (I know, for gaming) Using a keyboard vs the keypad that’s on the laptop is so much better. I’m further away from my screen and I my elbows can relax much easier. I will say this about the shipping. I don’t know why but FedEx has been sending packages to the USPS instead of shipping it themselves. So it was a day delayed and that’s not the vender’s fault. I will fault the venders for the box they shipped the keyboard in, way oversized for the keyboard. Enough about that. Pros: Very sturdy The keys are not very clicky, but they are responsive. Keyboard length is smaller than I imagined which is perfect for long gaming sessions (my arms are not very far apart nor are they too close, it’s a very comfortable fit) 3 levels of brightness settings Brightness settings are solid The lower keys are at an angle (it feels like less work when using my thumb for the space bar) Dedicated media keys Dedicated light toggle switch Dedicated “Windows Lock” key On board memory (for the different macro settings) which allows you to use this keyboard on multiple setups without having to redownload and reinput the macro key functions Cons: The light toggle switch adjusts the lights throughout the keyboard. Meaning the white lights get brighter as well. It may or may not bother some people. The keys are a little squeaky when you run your fingers lightly on them, it might bother some people. If you are used to a chiclet keyboard, you may or may not have some difficultly getting used to raising your fingers slightly to reach keys and press down on them. (it wasn’t an issue with me but for some it might be) This keyboard, Corsair Raptor K30, is a 2 year model (manufactured in 2013). You don’t get many of the bells and whistles that the newer gaming keyboards have. This model does not come with some kind of keyring remover. I wish it did in case I need to replace a key. I don’t believe this model can add a wrist rest. Software and driver do not work with Windows 10. There is a work around to get drivers working again with Windows 10. You have to do some looking around. Overall I would suggest this keyboard for those who are looking to get a serious gaming keyboard. It isn’t mechanical. But for those who are on a budget and wish to get a good product I would suggest getting this keyboard or something of this caliber. I plan on adding more to this review after a month of owning this and some serious gameplay.

   Rollover is adequate. Stays clean. Why doesn’t every keyboard have an open case like this?

   Keyboard is absolutely fantastic for the price point. Keystrokes have a nice feel to them and I personally enjoy the key sounds. Considering other options I’d say this is one of, if not the closest experiences to a true mechanical keyboard.
