A beautiful, hardy and pleasing new keyboard

Say hello to the Corsair Vengeance K60 keyboard.

To some, a keyboard is just a place to collect all your biscuit crumbs and errant Golden Virginia while you look at the latest funny cat video, but for the serious gamer it's a vital piece of kit.

These people are prepared to spend a bit extra cash for a keyboard that's comfortable, responsive and maybe even boasts a few extra controls – and Corsair wants in on that action.

Like the Vengeance M60 mouse, this K60 is designed with the FPS gamer in mind.

Corsair vengeance kit

Corsair's keyboard is built on a brushed metal chassis and features fantastically clicky Cherry MX red switches for (steady now) fast, smooth action.

The WSAD and 1-5 keys are also rubberized and contoured to maximise your gaming comfort and performance, but you can swap these out for normal black keys with a handy tool stowed away, with the spare keys, in the wrist rest if you like.

1. "What an impression the K60 makes when you first clickety-clack its keys.

"It's as if every key input you make is part of some crucially important bomb-decoding procedure or something.

"Satisfying doesn't even cover it – this is the keyboard equivalent of popping bubble-wrap."

Genius, Phil. Pure genius.
