Just a few weeks ago, I considered Corsair's K95 RGB Platinum to be the best gaming keyboard available. However, the K95 RGB Platinum is still a great option. Right now it's on sale at Best Buy for $129.99.

This discount is $70 off the list price. Incidentally, the K100 RGB Optical is also on sale, but still quite expensive, selling for $209.99 at Best Buy (down from $229.99). We really like the K100 RGB Optical, but paying nearly $200 for a keyboard is a tough proposition.

That was our main complaint about the K95 RGB Platinum and its price tag; Best Buy's current discount softens that blow and makes this keyboard even easier to recommend. It's not the cheapest price we've seen so far; we've seen it on sale for about $110, but it's still a very good deal.

Still not cheap, but you get a lot for your money: Cherry MX Speed switches in an aircraft-grade brushed anodized aluminum (which Corsair says will "stand up to a lifetime of gaming") deck and a full-featured model with RGB lighting It's a full-featured model with RGB lighting. It also has 8MB of onboard storage for up to three profiles, dedicated media controls (including a metal volume roller), a removable wrist rest, USB pass-through, and six dedicated G keys that can store up to three bindings/macros each

These G-keys are used to store up to 3 macros.

These G keys are different colors and textured to prevent accidental pressing (e.g., pressing G3 instead of Tab key). Also included are textured keycaps for the WASD keys.
