    HyperX Alloy Elite - Mechanical Gaming Keyboard - Radiant Light Bar - Wrist Rest & Gaming Keycaps Included - Media Controls - Linear & Quiet - Cherry MX Red - Red LED Backlit (HX-KB2RD1-US/R1)

    • Much less LED light bleed out of the bottom of the keys onto the keyboard base plate
    • It's a bit more expensive than most keyboards, but steel frame, mechanical keys, braided cables and yes, even the lights are worth it in my opinion.
    • I adore the lighting on the HyperX Alloy Elite RGB keyboard
    • You can only save one basic static lighting profile to the board (which I should mention would sometimes not load on startup- sheesh!).Also, the light bar at the top looks FANTASTIC and is a really nice touch
    • The lighting is nice, especially when I'm gaming after my kids have gone to bed.
    • The lighting is so clean, One of the best looking rgb options for a cherry mx keyboard
    • He told me that most of the reasons for his wanting it are on the product page, but I'll repeat them here for you:Unique radiant light bar and dynamic RGB lighting effects
    • CUE is a buggy mess- my K70 LUX would often not be recognized by the software, the software would crash periodically, and sometimes my keyboard's lighting would just refuse to work
    • The lighting is very nice and makes the keys easily visible.
    • The LED lights are mesmerizing and allows you to type/play games in the dark
    • I like how adjustable the lights are
    • Much less LED light bleed out of the bottom of the keys onto the keyboard base plate
    • the red lights are great
    • Wasn't sure I would like going from a light key, cherry mx red (45g Actuation Force) to the lil heavier mx blue (60g Actuation Force) but its fine
    • I previously had a corsair k70 then a logitech g pro (great keyboard too) then when I saw this come out in a cherry blue option I had to have it
