Sandy Bridge Build Log Metamorphosis: Corsair Link, CrossfireX, and Vengeance Gaming
Published on 12/08/2011By
VENGEANCE® K60 Performance FPS Mechanical Gaming Keyboard
Designed for performance gaming.
Vengeance K60 is an enthusiast-grade gaming keyboard designed for MMO and RTS gameplay with premium responsiveness, superior customizability, and outstanding durability.
CHERRY® MX Red mechanical key switches
Cherry® MX Red key switches are the best of the best — they provide the sensitivity and low operating force that professional gamers love. Reaction times are ulra-fast and responsive for quicker double and triple taps. The action is predictable and linear unlike lesser gaming keyboards that have a tactile bump or the annoying click of a typist’s keyboard.
Contoured, textured WASD and 1-6 Keycaps
The Vengeance K60 is designed to give you complete control even during the most intense action. The contoured, textured WASD and #1-6 keys are soft to the touch and without slip so you can focus on the game without needing to look down to find the right controls. An extra set of standard typing keycaps and a keycap replacement tool are provided for general typing.
Full key matrix anti-ghosting
Our expertly designed anti-ghosting technology provides flawless control even when you're pressing multiple keys at once. The K60 has individual switches with dedicated diodes for each switch so every key press results in an input and is 100% ghost free without tradeoff or compromise.
Full key rollover on USB
Typical USB gaming keyboards are limited to the USB standard six-key rollover. The K60 features increased performance with a 20-key rollover implementation on USB at a blazing fast 1ms (1000 reports per second) reporting rate.
Professional-grade brushed aluminum chassis
The stiff-suspension chassis employs a comfortable yet rugged design that's ideal for single player or LAN party gaming, and provides durability and stability that's better than keyboards made primarily from plastic.
Easy access multimedia controls
Control all of your music with the easy access media controls.
Ergonomic wrist rest
The ergonomic soft-touch wrist rest helps you play for hours without fatigue. It even doubles as a safe and secure holder for the included spare set of WASD and #1-6 keycaps.
USB pass-through
A USB port on the back of the Vengeance K60 gaming keyboard makes connecting your mouse or other USB devices a simple task.

Vengeance K60 gets the "Editor's Choice" award at Techgage Networks Inc.
"So the question comes - would I buy one? Definitely. As a gaming keyboard, it's exemplary. It picks up on those twitch reflexes extremely well and it makes going back to a standard keyboard difficult. It is a challenge to type on, so if you're looking for a best of both worlds, this isn't it. For a straight-up reflexive FPS gaming keyboard, this is a winner. You may miss out on the extended macro support and back-lighting on the K90 MMO-based keyboard, but that's fine. I don't need to see the keyboard when I'm killing anything that moves. As it is, the Corsair K60 is an easy Editor's Choice. Now go forth and frag."

Vengeance K60 scores 86% and gets the "Silver" award at Overclock3D
“It's difficult to sum up the K60 without repeating all that we've said about the K90, because it all holds true here too.” “The primary thing you come away from the K60 feeling is how incredibly well it's engineered.” “Unfortunately there is a slight fly in the ointment. The K60 is only £20 cheaper than the K90, currently retailing for £85 at Aria. Now you're getting a lot of keyboard for your money, but the K90 has 18 macro keys, software, lighting, three memory banks and yet only costs £20 more.”

Vengeance HID products gets the "Editor's Choice" award at Bright Side of News
"The build quality, design, and performance of the Corsair Vengeance Gaming line of keyboards and mice is quite literally unparalleled by anyone in the industry. When you take into account the fact that Corsair has built these beautiful keyboards and mice with all of the newest technologies and design, there is no doubt that they have hit the nail on the head. We did have some recommendations for future versions, but the majority of them are personal preferences or very slight nitpicks here and there. When you combine the infallible design of the software and hardware with a strong 2 year warranty, Corsair's Vengeance Gaming keyboards and mice are quite simply the best in the world, ever. We officially (and happily) retire our G15 keyboards and G500 mouse for them and slap the entire Corsair Vengeance Gaming line of keyboards and mice with our Editor's Choice award for simply being awesome in every way possible."

Vengeance K60 scores 93% and wins the "Best Value" award from TweakTown
"The price of the K60 is what I think is going to make this as stiff of a competitor in the market as the K90 is. While the larger and more functional K90 does have its perks and features that will make you want to dig $30 deeper in the pocket to own it, the K60 offers plenty to stand on its own and not live in the shadow of its bigger brother. Even though I raved about the K90, the K60 is actually what is sitting on my desk now and every day that goes by I think the K60 is more of a perfect fit for my needs and gaming style. The fact that currently the K60 is currently listing at reputable e-tailers for $99.99 with sipping included, I can't help but recommend that those wanting a mechanical keyboard with a few very useful options, the sub-$100 pricing make it affordable for anyone to try out and reap its benefits"

Golden award was given to Vengeance K60 by Hardware Secrets
"The Vengeance K60 is a high-performance keyboard with sturdy keys. The left hand wrist rest makes it easy and comfortable to play for hours on end. Unfortunately there's no illumination, but the elevated keys make cleaning the board easy. Since the keyboard doesn't feature programmable keys, we recommend getting a high-precision gaming-grade mouse. (Corsair itself has released a companion mouse for the keyboard, the M60 mouse, which we'll test later.) As for performance, this is absolutely the best keyboard we've tested so far for this style of game. If it had illumination, it would be the perfrect 100 score keyboard."

It is a high-quality, noble-looking keyboard with discreet built-in features, and a feeling of precision that makes it a favorite with our editors.” “The solid price of 90 € may certainly be justified, but we’d like it to cost a little less.

"Corsair’s Vengeance K60 is geared towards FPS players, however, it would make a great keyboard for anyone. The K60 is by far the sleekest, most stylish keyboard I have ever seen; dare I even say that it is down right sexy? The brushed aluminium face with raised keys begs you to look its way. Corsair has one of the best reputations in the business, as far as quality goes, and the K60 is another fantastic work of art that joins the ranks of their Vengeance gaming peripherals."

The first work on the basis of the Red Cherry MX switches not only has an excellent key feel, but also offers an excellent quality of workmanship and handy extras. Only the high sale price "nibbles" at the final results of our test sample. Christopher says: Best Gaming Keyboard for MMO gamers!”

“We haven't seen a keyboard that caters for the needs of the FPS gamer this well before – a fantastic setup.” “What an impression the K60 makes when you first clickety-clack its keys. It's as if every key input you make is part of some crucially important bomb-decoding procedure or something. Satisfying doesn't even cover it – this is the keyboard equivalent of popping bubble-wrap.” “The incredible build quality and scrolling volume control cover the Vengeance K60 in glory.”

Vengeance Keyboard and Mice, all receives the "Gold" award at HardwareHeaven
"In fact we are struggling to find anything negative to say about any of the products, this is as good an entry into gaming gear as we have seen." "One of the key aspects which most jumped out at is when using the mice for the first time was that the M60 feels good in the hand, it is shaped well and comfortable to use but the M90 feels truly fantastic. Corsair has found a great shape for the main body and it is one of those mice which feels like an extension of our hand rather than an addition to it."

Everything USB recommends the Vengeance K60 Keyboard
" I'd say that Corsair did a fantastic job with their K60 and is deserving of our praise. Not only did they up the ante for gaming keyboards by using mechanical keys that easily outclass any Microsoft or Logitech keyboard I've ever used, but they raised the bar over every other mechanical keyboard through dedicated media controls, full 20KRO, a comfortable gaming rest, and some very fine WASD keys. Just as importantly, the K60 manages to achieve a unique look with its aluminum plate design that exceptionally easy to clean."
