So, among mechanical keyboards, years ago Corsair used to make almost hands down the best one for the average consumer looking for a solid Cherry MX Blue option some time ago called the K70 Vengeance, which sat alongside their other Vengeance products in their gaming product lineup. As time went on, Corsair decided it would be a great idea to fuck up everything that they did that made their gaming product lineup perfect. This directly impacted the K70 Vengeance, and made them utterly worthless. So much to the point that you paid a premium for older versions of the K70. Back in 2014, Corsair changed their Corsair Gaming logo to what was unaffectionately called the tramp stamp logo. https://kotaku.com/gaming-company-changes-logo-to-tramp-stamp-fans-horr-1638359967 https://kotaku.com/gaming-company-changes-logo-to-tramp-stam... Then, a couple years later, they dropped the Vengeance moniker and called the new K70 the K70 LUX. Which was absolutely no improvement on an otherwise already, in my opinion, terrible game. In this revision, they replaced the keycaps with some godawful font chosen by the 12-year-old child of one of the product designers, further cementing the former K70 into irrelevance in an attempt to "differentiate" which in this context means "look like everyone else." http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=163538 http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=163538 To restore the keyboard to its former glory, you'd have to purchase the classic K70 keyset for another $30. Fuck 'em. https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories/Products/Accessories-%7C-Parts/Gaming/Gaming-Keyboards/CORSAIR-Gaming-Classic-K70-Full-104-Keys-Set/p/CH-8970022 https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories/Products/Accessorie... To this day, I've not found a suitable replacement for the K70 Vengeance which my wife spilt coke all over. As for a mouse, I just bought the same best-selling Razer DeathAdder many other purchase. It was nice to not have to think so much about the latter.
