Introduction

Founded in 2004 Rosewill is the house-brand of Newegg for affordable components. They build their name on a whole host of products including cases, power supplies, fans, card readers and more. Today however we are going to be looking at one of the keyboards from their peripheral range, the Rosewill RK-9000 V2 RGB. This updated version of a Rosewill classic has multiple lighting options, macro options and full media control.

Specifications

Packaging

The front of the Rosewill box has a nice image of the keyboard on it showing off the RGB capabilities, it does feel like the packaging is a little dated compared to some of the competitors, but let's face it, it is a box. It does what it needs to and that is to protect what is inside and also gives us a little bit of information on what is inside. Straight away we can see that this board uses Cherry MX switches and is fully RGB compatible.


The rear of the box gives us yet more information, we can see there are eight pre-programmed LED modes, five profile settings, up to 50 macros, N-key rollover and more.


Inside the box there is the keyboard, a keycap puller, a cable and of course a user guide. It is worth holding onto the user guide as this will help you when you are setting the LED colours.
