Not interested in this, but I will give a shout out to their RGB Mice & Keyboards, whose build quality craps all over Corsair's, these days.

Kinda funny to think that mouse and keyboard are getting wireless, but nowadays we have wired mousepad......

I can't trust RGB keyboard anymore. They look cool, but the chance of the LEDs dying are so high (100%). Had 4 RGB keyboards which blue LEDs died all within <1 year. After some googling this is a very common issue with RGB keyboards regardless of brand.

Now I'm just using pure white backlit keyboard, no LED issues at all.

The chance of LED dying should be very low .. I had 5+ LED keyboards over 10+ years and never seen any LED dying?

However I always buy white led or rgb boards than can actually show decent white (alot of rgb boards tend to show purple when white is selected)

That's what I believed too in the first time. Maybe it's because of RGB? Before RGB I had a couple of keyboard with single color LED, none of the LED dies after 5+ years of use. The switch died first.

Then I tried RGB keyboards, then all of them had LED dying issues after <1 year of usage (2 months was the fastest), particularly the blue one... I've had enough. Well, the novelty and excitement of RGB usually wears off after the first few months... now pure white LED looks the best for me.

Pure white LED has always looked the best to me and usually I run them at 20-40% brightness, tops. If you use rainbow effect with 100% brightness all day every day then LEDs might die sooner, I don't know but I have not experienced any LED dying in the 5 LED keyboards I have had over the ~10 years tho
