I have tried the Razer Blackwidow V3 and the Elite. Both are good keyboards, but the Elite, while it had a nice wrist rest(magnetic) had black key bases so it's RGB lighting is dim and the V3, which does have good RGB lighting, didn't have the USB pass through and came with a hard plastic wrist rest that doesn't attach , in any way, to the keyboard(no magnets or anything, it just sits there). The green Razer keey were pretty good but no match for the feel and sound of true Cherry MX Blue keys.
Another thing I love about the K95 is the ability to load lighting profiles directly to the keyboard so you do NOT need to be running iCue to get the lighting effects you want. This is a nice thing to have when you want to run a minimized set up for gaming or move the keyboard to another computer. Razer has none of this.
On top of this, the light really blows Razer out of the water. With the exception of the Blackwidow V3, all Razer RGB keyboards seem dim and under lit compared to Corsair. The translucent key bases make all the difference. Plus this has an added RGB light bar at the top of the keyboard for an extra add effect, which looks awesome. And the Corsair log is at the top of the keyboard, so it does NOT get hidden by the write rest, unlike Razer's keyboards, which have the log at the bottom.
The one (big) minus I will give Corsair is iCue. It is a big step behind Razer in programmability. It seems to take a lot more steps to accomplish what is easily done in Razer's Synapse. Plus, if you have multiple Razer devices, it allows you to group the devices so when you set a lighting profile, it applies to ALL devices. In iCue, you have to set the lighting profile for EACH device independently, which is a complete waste of time. To add to this, while Corsair has profiles that you can load to the keyboard directly, you have to program them in it's own HARDWARE tab and you CANNOT copy regular lighting profiles to the Hardware tab. So you basically have to program the light profile TWICE. Another waste of time.
Pros
Solid construction
choice of different Cherry MX keys
USB pass through
GREAT and BRIGHT RGB lighting, with added light bar and logo at top, which won't get blocked by wrist rest
Macro keys
Nicely padded wrist rest
Cons
iCue - Corsair really needs to step it up and look at how Razer does Synapse as there are many head scratching things in iCue.
All in all this is a great keyboard. If you are after great RBG lighting and added macro keys, get this. Just be prepared for some extra effort needed for iCue.

The software that you need to control the RGB is not bad either. Much better than some out there.
Pros:
Very well made. (SOLID)
Comes with some extra keys so you can customize it a bit. And the tool to remove the keys.
Has a USB input on the front of the board to the left of the cord.
Very nice cord. One of if not the nicest cord I have ever seen on a keyboard.
Decent software.
RGB works as it should. And customizing it is not hard.
Sound roller works great and is nice to use.
You save profiles to it and with a single key press you can change them.
Lighting can be dimmed for the keyboard and has 3 brightness settings and off.
Cons. The Lighting is not as bright as some competitors out there.
Its kind of expensive, but honestly you are getting what you pay for so not really sure that's a con.
Its large, so might not fit well on a smaller desk
Keys are a little loud, but not bad. They have one that is supposed to be quitter, but I like the shorter stroke of the (Speed) version keys. So I will put up with the noise.
Honestly I had to nit pick to come up with some cons for it.
Over all this is a very good keyboard and is worth every penny it costs.
I was skeptical about spending this much money on a keyboard but I am a believer now!
The one downside of this keyboard are the placement of the programmable keys on the left side, replacing the traditional top-left position of the Escape key and traditional bottom-left location of Ctrl. This has taken a couple of weeks of getting used to. In particular, when gaming, I'm forever hitting the G1 key instead of the Escape key to the point where I just programmed G1 to be Escape. Not, I think, what I was intended to do there but nothing in life is perfect...
It continues to interface perfectly with all of my other Corsair hardware and the "key feel" is slightly improved over the previous model K95 -- my typing speed has increased slightly. All in all, a great purchase and I look forward to typing away on Corsairs for many years to come!

Após um ano de uso, todas as teclas estão piscando e o teclado deu problema em todas as teclas, eu sou muito cuidadoso com minhas coisas, e o teclado caro como esse tive muito cuidado e mesmo assim, é de péssima qualidade, não recomendo a compra de teclados corsair.
------------------------
A resolução de minha camera não é tão boa, entretanto posso garantir que após 25 anos de desenvolvimento de sistemas encontrei um teclado perfeito, tudo é bom, teclas em PBT double shot, cherry mx speed, pra quem digita rapido é a melhor coisa, entretanto quem não tem uma digitação apurada, pode errar muito ao digitar, pois as teclas são muito sensíveis. são teclas leves demais, incriveis, tudo no teclado é premium.

da hat sich der hohe preis nur für verkäufer gelohnt.
Software ist miserabel aber man konnte damit leben mal kein licht oder so
aber die defekte tasten so A 2 sec Reaktionszeit oder sie klickt 2 mal oder gar nicht da diese taste zum zocken braucht schrott............ nie wider Corsair Tastatur
ps die grauen extra tasten waren nach 3 Monaten ohne Farbe also konnte man Buchstaben nicht mehr lesen.
Arm rest feels very premium, the clicks are very clicky (as I wanted) and feels just right. Volume control worked like a charm with zero configuration, detected everything flawlessly.
It is an expensive keyboard, at least for me it was but it was worth every penny and I will never return to standard keyboards. Mechanical are the way to go!
The best keyboard can only beat the Corsair K100 when it comes with blue switches in the future.
I used Corsair K95 with speed switches and replaced it with K95 Platinum XT because of the MX blue switches.
It works like charm, solid build, PBT keycaps, cushioned wrist rest, all are awesome. The only issue that I discovered is that the RGB lights gets stuck sometimes when I use this keyboard with a USB hub. When it is connected directly to the system's USB, it works flawlessly.
