MorleySA Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I'm torn between the K95 and the K70, I play both FPS's and MMO's. I want the macro keys the K95 offer, but i also want the red keys that the K70 offers. My question therefore, does corsair intend on selling those red key's separately? I know they sell parts but i haven't seen the K70 red keys in the shop yet? I'm sorry if this is a n00bish question! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheoParke Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I do believe Corsair offers the red 'treaded' keycaps seperately, I'm pretty sure I saw them for sale .. somewhere. What I'd like to know is do they offer the spacebar as part of that set? If so, I want just the spacebar for my K90. Definitely like the textured one over the smooth one, even just for typing.

MorleySA Posted May 10, 2013 Author Share Posted May 10, 2013 are the k60 and k70 red keys not the same? I thought they were different. the K60 keycaps look completely different to the K70 ones. The K60's look cheap compared to the new K70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted May 10, 2013 Corsair Employees Share Posted May 10, 2013 The K70 red keycaps are transparent so the LED will go through them. The K60 red keycaps are not (since the K60 didn't have any LED's). We are working on getting the new K70 keycaps up on the webstore soon. Stay tuned.

Shawlin Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 @Ram Guy, Is there any chance that full sets of the backlit keys may be sold in the future? I'll be replacing my current keyboard with either a K70 or more likely a K90 because the opaque portion of my A,S,D,and F keys has been completely worn off, along with portions of other keys. Do Corsair keycaps even have this issue? If so I'd like to be able to replace keycaps instead of keyboards, particularly at $149/pop when the switches are still good. I haven't found aftermarket backlit caps for MX switches but if anyone knows of any... 8^) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted May 15, 2013 Corsair Employees Share Posted May 15, 2013 Our keycaps for the K90/95/70 are all laser etched so they won't fade. We don't sell replacement keycaps though unfortunately except for the red WASD keycaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheoParke Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Cool! Hope you're planning on including the treaded spacebar as part of that set. If so, I'm getting one to replace the spacebar on my K90. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
