    HyperX Alloy Elite RGB - Mechanical Gaming Keyboard - Software-Controlled Light & Macro Customization - Wrist Rest - Media Controls - Linear & Quiet - Cherry MX Red - RGB LED Backlit (HX-KB2RD2-US/R1)

    • For this review, I'll be comparing the HyperX Alloy Elite RGB against the Corsair K70 LUX RGB
    • The caps also feel much better to the touch- the K70 caps feel decidedly cheap and thin, while the alloy elite caps have a smooth, soft coat to them
    • The wrist rest on the Alloy Elite RGB is also really nice
    • The new HyperX Alloy Elite RGB, keyboard has RGB, which interestingly, I seldom use, as I prefer the Blue LED's
    • I received the Red LED Alloy Elite
    • It commands a solid presence on my desktop, impressive in size, weight and appearance (flashy!)I've used my Alloy Elite with two Windows 10 laptops (an Acer Aspire and a Dell XPS) as well as a MacBook Pro, and it works fine with all of them
    • Material-wise, the HyperX Alloy Elite RGB feels of higher quality than other gaming keyboards that I've tried in store (i.e., Corsair Strafe, Razer boards, Logitech G910)
    • Having said all of that, I actually think the HyperX Alloy Elite RGB is even better
    • Blue especially never looked quite right on the K70 LUX, but on the Alloy Elite RGB is looks more vibrant and true blue
    • but it is a excellent keyboard, I've had a Corsair K90, Ducky Legend and a Ducky Shine 5, the HyperX Alloy Elite RGB with Cherry MX Blues is right at the top of that list
    • On the Alloy elite RGB, the mx reds are actually fairly
    • I was debating between getting Corsair's K70 RGB MK.2 but instead went with the Hyper X Alloy Elite RGB from Kingston and did not regret that decision
    • The first is rainbow wave, which is just as nice as that found on e K70 LUX
    • The lighting on this board is just as good as on the K70 LUX
