In addition to new PC cases and PSUs, the company also brought its new MAKR 75 DIY keyboard to the Computex 2025 show, promising to bring a simplified way of creating an ultra-personalized DIY keyboard, all thanks to the Corsair Web Hub. Corsair is also showing off new Stream Deck integrations for its SCIMITAR ELITE WIRELESS SE mouse, which gives it a whole new level of functionality, allowing users to manage the setup, workflows, and more.

The Corsair MAKR 75 DIY keyboard, or the MAKR 75 Barebones Keyboard Kit, as Corsair has launched it, should combine the best of both worlds, customization of DIY keyboards and performance of gaming keyboards. Corsair makes it simple by allowing users to customize the keyboard through Corsair Web Hub, where there is a wide choice of keycaps, switches, frame options, a special module which can be equipped with a rotary dial or small LCD screen, and more. The Corsair MAKR 75 DIY keyboard features 8K hyper-polling, FlashTap SOCD, gasket mounting, 8-layers of sound dampening, aluminium frame, screw-in stabilizers and much more.



In addition to the MAKR 75 DIY keyboard, Corsair was also keen to show us the new features of the SCIMITAR ELITE WIRELESS SE mouse, which now gets integration with the Elgato Stream Deck. In case you missed it earlier, the SCIMITAR ELITE WIRELESS SE is an MMO-oriented gaming mouse, with 16 programmable buttons, MARKSMAN S 33k DPI optical sensor and optical switches, RGB lights, and more.

Now, you can combine it with Elgato's Stream Deck, which gives it an ability to map the 12 buttons of the Key Slider for new functions, allowing you to quickly access hardware and apps, macros, and more, all thanks to Virtual Stream Deck.

This looks solid. I was looking at a Zoom75 or Rainy75. I got to use the Zoom75 the other week. It's a solid keyboard but it takes about 3 months to get it after ordering it. I might have to add this Makr 75 if the price is right.

It’s a corsair product, the price will most certainly NOT be right. I fully expect this to be wildly expensive and the quality to be lacking sadly. As a company they’ve absorbed too many smaller businesses and have to many fingers in too many pies to keep quality standards up from what Ive experienced in the last 10 years.

They charge 50 USD / 48 GBP / 60 EUR just for the wireless upgrade module.

Yeah I expect the price to be a premium for sure after you guys talked some sense into me.. lol I'll probably pick up a Rainy75 or I might get a low-profile for work travel. My Keychron k6 pro is a lot to carry around.
