This award-winning Corsair keyboard is an even better deal today

Mechanical keyboards are great for gaming, but it’s all too easy to spend way too much on one. Corsair’s most expensive model is nearly $300, and it’s missing a lot of premium features. Meanwhile the humble K70 Core scored an Editor’s Choice award from my review, partly thanks to its great value. Today you can pick one up for just 80 bucks, $30 off its regular price.

Amazon is selling the K70 Core, with the included wrist rest that usually demands an extra $10, for just $79.99. That’s about the best deal you can find for a full-sized gaming keyboard with great switches and some interior sound dampening for satisfying typing. Naturally it includes RGB lighting and custom software compatibility, too.

Corsair’s custom MLX Red (linear and speedy) switches really are the star here, but be aware that as a budget model the K70 Core doesn’t let you swap them out. The fixed USB cable is also a bit of a bummer, making it harder to organize your cables quickly. That said, this really is the best deal you’re going to find for a large gaming board from a major supplier.

Amazon says it’s a “limited time deal,” so who knows how long it’ll stick around. Hop on it fast if you’re interested.
