Question To Corsair, Cherry MX RGB LED ?

So I am quite looking forward to seeing this K95 RGB as I read that the new design should dramatically cut down on LEDs dying through electro static discharge as the LEDs are now built into the board differently.

 

At the moment I'm on my 3rd K95 as the LEDs just randomly die on me for no reason even though it is sat in a static free environment.

 

Could we get a bit more information as to how the LEDs differ from the standard K95 to the new RGB K95 please ?

as far as i understand it

 

the old led with the standard mx switches are exposed, and therefore also more prone to ESD

 

the mx rgb switches have the led mounted within the switch's casing, which eliminates (or i should say prevent) exposure to outside ESD
