Are Corsair keyboards worth it?

Yes for most gamers — the K-series offers genuine Cherry MX or Corsair optical switches, solid builds and the deep iCUE software, which is hard to match for a coordinated RGB setup. If you don't need iCUE's depth, a simpler board may save money. Check current SA pricing on this page.

What is the difference between Corsair K70 and K100?

Broadly, the K100 is the flagship with more macro keys, premium switch options and extra features, while the K70 is the popular mainstream full-size board. Both are mechanical with per-key RGB and iCUE support; the K100 sits at a higher price for the added features. Compare the exact specs on each product page.

Do Corsair keyboards work on PS5 and Xbox?

Corsair USB keyboards work for typing and supported input on consoles, but iCUE features, macros and full RGB control are designed for PC. For the complete experience use them on a PC. Check the specific model's console compatibility before buying.

Which Corsair switch is best for gaming?

Linear switches — Cherry MX Red or Corsair's Speed/optical OPX — are popular for gaming because they actuate fast with no tactile bump. Tactile switches like Cherry MX Brown suit players who also type a lot. There's no single best; it comes down to whether you prefer a smooth or a bumpy keypress.

Do I need iCUE software?

The keyboard works without it, but iCUE is where Corsair keyboards shine — per-key lighting, macros, profiles and syncing with your other Corsair gear. It's a free download for Windows and macOS. If you want a fully coordinated, customisable setup, install it.

Are Corsair keyboards good for typing as well as gaming?

Yes — with a tactile switch like Cherry MX Brown and features like a wrist rest on some models, Corsair K-series boards handle long typing sessions well. Full-size versions keep the numpad for data entry. Choose the switch and layout to suit your mix of gaming and work.

Are Corsair wireless keyboards laggy for gaming?

No — Corsair's SLIPSTREAM wireless is built for low latency that's effectively as fast as wired for gaming, with Bluetooth as a secondary option for productivity. Wired remains the simplest if you never want to charge. Both modes are available across the wireless K-series.

What warranty do Corsair keyboards have in South Africa?

Corsair keyboards bought from Evetech carry local warranty against manufacturing defects, handled in South Africa rather than via an overseas return. Keep your proof of purchase. Check this page or contact our support team for the exact warranty term on a specific model.

Corsair Gaming Keyboards ⌨️

Corsair's K-series is one of the best-known mechanical keyboard ranges, spanning compact competitive boards up to full-size flagships. You'll find genuine Cherry MX switches on many models and Corsair's own OPX optical-mechanical switches on others, with bright per-key RGB across the range.

What ties the line-up together is iCUE — Corsair's software for lighting, macros, profiles and syncing your keyboard with the rest of your Corsair gear. Higher-tier boards add dedicated macro keys, metal frames and features like a volume roller, while wireless models use Corsair's low-latency SLIPSTREAM connection.

Every Corsair keyboard at Evetech ships with local warranty and nationwide delivery, backed by South Africa's largest gaming hardware retailer. Compare the K-series models below and pair one with a Corsair mouse, headset or mouse pad to sync your lighting in iCUE.
