4000 Hz is probably the most useless marketing point I've heard in a while. It is only even theoretically useful on devices with optical switches, due to mechanical switches having so-called debounce delay - a time period of around 5ms that the keyboard waits for the contact leaf in the switch to stop vibrating after actuation (although Cherry claimed to have tightened their contact tolerances to reduce this delay, we'll see). But even then, before any tiny amount of difference actually begins to matter, the input has to go through several input abstraction layers of your OS, reach your game's process, and actually get processed by your game, which will absolutely blow away the *theoretical* difference of 0.75 ms of input lag between 1000 Hz and 4000 Hz. Also, due to the high power consumption of optical switches, a wireless optical keyboard remains impossible for now, and wireless operation feels like a much more tangible quality than sub-1ms *theoretical* latency reduction. Wireless is probably where the industry is headed right now. I'm not a pro gamer by any means, but I have played fast-paced games passionately for the last 20 years. The only polling rate difference I can notice is going from 125 to 250 on mice, and not even that on keyboards. God this marketing is stupid.

I like the feature set and full size keyboards in general but a keyboard isn't something you replace often once you have one you like. I also want clicky keys (or at least a very noticable bump at the actuation point). The major improvement a keyboard like this could receive is the ability to use all these features without having the controller software active. That's what I hate about my Razer keyboard, it has many features but the software has to be active for them to work. Fuck that! It should be a matter of set up and forget about it. Not needing the software active for the features to work is the only reason I'd replace my current keyboard prematurely.

For anyone who sees that large polling rate and is excited for it, a little read: ----Key Bouncing All types of key switches - including rubber domes - do this. When you press a key, the switch "bounces" on and off very quickly as it sets into place. This causes keys to register multiple times for each press. Because of this, keyboards need to implement some sort of debouncing delay - so that once you press a key, the controller waits a certain amount of time before registering a keypress. As an example, Cherry MX switches need 5ms of debouncing time, while rubber domes need longer (exactly how long depends on their quality). ----Polling Rates and Response Times While it is very useful for mice, it's just about meaningless for keyboards. Let's assume for a minute that all switches have the 5ms debouncing time of Cherry MX switches (which is being very generous). Even if you had super human speed and reflexes, every single key would be delayed by at least that much. So really, any polling rate over 200Hz (at best) is absolutely useless, and nothing but market hype. It may even be a bit detrimental, because you'd be wasting CPU time polling the keyboard unneededly. And unlike USB keyboards, PS/2 boards aren't polled at all. They simply send the signal to the PC whenever they are ready to, which causes a hardware interrupt, forcing the CPU to register that keystroke. ----PS/2 or USB? PS/2 wins on three fronts: First, it supports full n-key rollover. Second, PS/2 keyboards aren't polled, but are completely interrupt based. And third, it is impossible for it to be delayed by the USB bus being used by other devices. There are two types of USB transfer modes - the interrupt transfer mode (USB polls keyboard, when key is sensed the USB controller sends the interrupt to the CPU), and the isochronous transfer mode, which reserves a certain amount of bandwidth for the keyboard with a guaranteed latency on the bus. Unfortunately, there are absolutely no keyboards made that use the latter, because special controllers would have to be used, thus making it cost prohibitive. So if your keyboard supports both PS/2 and USB, and your PC has a PS/2 port, there's no reason not to use it.

I bought K95 XT just last month, loving it so far and I see several improvements that I like here such as Corsair ditching the non standard bottom row, sturdy stabilizer, more RGB (of course lol), and finally better wrist rest. But it is priced $30 premium than the K95 XT which I kinda glad, otherwise the K95 XT would be eclipsed value wise. However, I think they should just refresh the white keyboard or release TKL variant, I am sure more people are waiting for that instead of this. Also the lack of extended RGB mousepad (or refresh the MM800) in their product catalog is a bit jarring compared to the competitors. Anything but this, too soon after K95 XT.

Having this keyboard delivered today. It better be much better than my G910 or a virtual slap for you. Edit 10/07. I got this keyboard only to find out the iCUE software that runs it is total garbage. You need to review the software too and not just the hardware. Hardware is nothing without software. So since 2018 this software closes itself after sleep mode. The Corsair forums are full of problems with the iCUE software. This keyboard is going straight back. Nothing like this has ever happened with my Logitech G910. Edit - 10/08/2020 - I posted about the sleep mode issue and not one reply on this well-known issue. On other people's posts, the devs actually say they can't do anything about it. Sounds like they need to hire some Logitech software engineers. Every time I wake my PC up I have to restart the iCUE software manually or this keyboard stays dark!

One thing we need to point out: We need a keyboard sound test on literally every Keyboard review/test on the planet, but only the minority like you does that. Which I really do appreciate. I mean, the sound of a mechanical keyboard is perhaps the one of the main reasons, that is 'game changing' when it comes to the final decision, if I'm gonna buy the keyboard or not! That the way I see this, and again, really thanks for the sound test!

The highest refresh rate we got a few weeks ago was 360hz and thats a 24 inch 1080p monitor for 700$. Until we get 1000hz monitors for the average consumer you are able to get 4000hz keyboards for 50 bucks. So jumping on that technology now is simply a waste of money. If you want a good gaming board, get small formaktor board for mousemovment with a switch you like and call it a day. Here in germany the k100 costs 250 euro. (Ca. 300 dollar) thats custom keep territory for features you wont notice for 3 years. Its blowing my mind how overhyped the k100 is.

Let's be honest, 4000 hz polling rate is not worth it at all, since we barely even have the hardware to run games over 500 fps. 1000 hz is fine for now, don't get baited by this. I know Corsair wants to innovate but the overall PC hardware manufacturers can't keep up with the PC peripherals manufacturers.
