What should I do if my Vengeance keyboard doesn't function within my PC's BIOS setup?
Some BIOSes do not correctly detect all keyboards. Updating your BIOS to the latest version should address the issue. If it doesn't, please contact our support team with the manufacturer and model number of your motherboard, and we can assist the manufacturer with an updated BIOS to correct the problem.

Cherry MX Red is the fastest action switch of the Cherry mechanical switch series.

Just use a soft clean cloth or tissue.

How do the aluminum bodies on the keyboards and mice help with durability?

 It provides a very rigid construction. Due the rigid construction the aluminum top plate provides, the keyboard can’t be warped or flexed. This prevents stresses on the electronics PCB and switch assembly.

Are mechanical keyboards better than typical gaming keyboards?

In our opinion, yes. The issue is mechanical switch vs rubber dome key technology. Both can have similar performance characteristics, even similar durability. But it is very difficult, but not impossible, to make a rubber dome key switch with the feel and actuation of a mechanical key switch.
