Right now, you can save 35% off the price of the Corsair K70 Max gaming keyboard, netting you one of the most capable keyboards around for the second-lowest price we’ve ever seen. Thanks to its magnetic keyswitches, it opens up a wealth of extra gaming possibilities, and today’s gaming keyboard deal makes it an even more tempting option.
As one of the best gaming keyboards you can buy, the appropriately-named Corsair K70 Max is the company’s top keyboard of the moment with a price that’s ordinarily maximized to match. However, this discount brings it to a much more affordable price.
The K70 Max is a full-size, wired gaming keyboard that packs in a host of premium extras over the standard K70 lineup. As we explored in our Corsair K70 Max review, a key feature it includes is magnetic keyswitches that allow for analog input – akin to the gradual response you get from a controller trigger – from each key of the keyboard. Not only can this analog control be useful in and of itself but it also allows for several other modern gaming keyboard extras.
Set the board to work in rapid trigger mode and the analog switches let you re-press a key immediately after you’ve just slightly lifted your finger off it, rather than having to wait for the key to rise up past a specific “off” point. This means you can press a key multiple times far quicker than with a conventional keyboard.
Other extras on this board include multimedia keys across the top section of the board, a quality padded wrist rest, and a removable USB-C cable. You can also set the keyboard to tournament mode at the flick of a switch at the back of the board. This sets the lighting to a static color and turns off all macros and other extra settings – it’s basically a one-stop way of making a keyboard tournament compliant, if you’re into taking your own keyboard to in-person gaming events.
Normally priced at $229.99, the K70 Max is today just $149.99, thanks to an Amazon Prime Day discount.
