![]() Just ensure the Tournament Mode switch is not turned on, which will limit a lot of options for good reason. ![]() So while you will need the driver to make the most of the K70 RGB TKL, especially to set up the hardware profiles, the scope to then use the keyboard as-is definitely exists. There are dedicated buttons for media playback, a volume mute toggle button, volume scroll wheel, backlighting brightness toggle button in four steps, Win lock button, and profile switches which allow users to switch between the three hardware profiles saved to the device. Indeed, most of the lighting effects are already stored on the keyboard, so you can toggle through the lighting presets using Fn + the number row, in addition to changing effect speed and direction. With the K70 RGB PRO, and even K70 TKL and K65 RGB MINI from before, the company has cut it down to a more realistic 50 profiles that can store more complicated lighting profiles of up to 20 layers, which is still overkill. In practice, those were associated with much simpler lighting profiles. CORSAIR says it wanted to provide an extreme case with the K100, which is where "up to 200 profiles" came from. Do note that you have fewer profiles and less lighting layers for storage than on the K100, but it is still a good amount. Also seen above is another video showing the popular rainbow wave mode, and feel free to experiment and make the most of the RGB lighting on offer here.įor those who would rather not use the software driver a lot, the onboard functionality with hardware playback comes in handy. Shown above is the default lighting with Tournament Mode turned on, which has all the keys light up in a static red to match the red lighting under the switch indicating the mode is on-the CORSAIR logo is backlit red as well, with the orange a camera artifact aiming to compensate for the glossy inlay cover. In a separate test via one of the preset multi-color options, I tested for light bleed, and it was present at the common edges because of the floating keycaps, but not to where it is distracting-the light show from all the RGB LEDs underneath the keys makes for a bigger attention grab anyway. I then manually set all the keys to white using iCUE to test for color fidelity since RGB LEDs have a hard time depicting white, and it was one of the most accurate whites thus far, so props to CORSAIR for good programming and compensation.
