K70 Where's the software

[Pad]

Hello,

 

I can't seem to find the software to program the key LEDs for different games. Can anyone supply a link please?

 

Many thanks,

 

Pad.

There are no drivers, or software.

Hi,

 

Thanks for the reply and the link.

 

To Corsair - No software = No sale.

 

The company I purchased the keyboard from described software:

http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/pc-accessories/pc-gaming-accessories/gaming-keyboards/corsair-vengeance-k70-mechanical-gaming-keyboard-21354584-pdt.html

From the website -

"You can use the software to programme the deep red LED backlighting for each key, making it simple to find your favourite configurations quickly. You will be able to store different presets. They will be stored on the keyboard itself rather than on your PC, which is ideal if you're taking your keyboard to play games at a friend's house; all of your settings will come with you so you can enjoy customised gaming wherever you are.

"

I shall be returning it to the store tomorrow. I'm not paying over £100 for a keyboard that has no programmability at all.

I have to add the wrist rest is useless, what on earth made you coat it an a material that causes your wrists to slide off it, negating its sole purpose?

Hi Pan, we'll get the vendor to correct the typo. The K70 doesn't need software to program the LED's - you can do so directly with the button on the keyboard itself. If you're looking for a keyboard for program-ability, the K70 isn't the right choice for you. I would suggest looking at the K95 instead.

 

I'm also sorry to hear you didn't like our wrist rest but I'd be more than happy to pass along the feedback. We chose the soft material because most people don't move their wrists very much and it allowed for a soft surface to rest on. I haven't seen any complaints with people's hands slipping off (on the contrary, people have been asking for it to be slightly longer actually).
