Disclaimer: Ive used the Steel Series 6Gv2 (Cherry MX Black), as well as the Razer Black widow (Cherry MX Brown).
For purposes of this review i am focusing on the performance, feel and build quality. (Spoiler: ITS FANTASTIC)
Of all the keyboards i have used and typed on, this is by far the greatest thing my fingers have ever had the pleasure of experiencing besides *censored for family-friendly purposes*.
Let me just say that if you enjoy linear switches, but are nervous about the sensitivity of the Cherry-Silver switches found on this board then fear not, for that was also my fear. The problem i had with cherry black was that sometimes i would press a key quickly just to find that i did not press hard enough and i would actually miss key presses that way. I got the black widow for the brown switches thinking that the tactile bump would help me know when the key was actuated. While it helped i could not help but feel that the tactile bump somehow slowed me down or got in the way of that smooth gliding typing feel.
ENTER THE MX CHERRY SILVER.
While i have never tried reds, i have heard that they are some of the most preferred switches for gaming. Having tried these silver switches i can now see why. (Reds are similar to silver switches, but with a deeper actuation point of 2.0mm compared to the Silver’s 1.2mm actuation travel. The Reds total travel distance is also deeper at 4.0mm, Silver’s total key travel is 3.4mm deep) When i go for a key, there is no worry about the key not actuating for the key effortlessly gives into the force of my finger. The switches are not so sensitive where the weight of my finger alone actuates them. It is just PERFECT. It truly is a hard thing to describe. For gaming i cannot imagine a better switch or board. And typists fear not for if you are sure footed in your typing skills then know that the linear switch is not your enemy when it comes to the Silver MX switches. I actually look forward to using this Keyboard every day. That is literally how much i enjoy this board. This is the first review i’ve wrote on amazon in years. That is literally how much i enjoy typing on this board. I almost dont want to even stop typing now lol. The funny thing is i was going to get the k70 with cherry mx browns, but decided on the LIMITED EDITION WHITE VERSION because it includes the DOUBLE SHOT KEYCAPS. which was a big deal for me. I wanted the most durable keyboard i could get and i saw how on the regular k70 some people complained about breaking keycaps. (YOU CAN BUY THE DOUBLE SHOT KEYCAPS SEPARATELY FOR $50). I thought it was well worth the risk with Amazons generous return policy to try this one out. PLUS THAT WHITE KEYBOARD IS SEXY LOOKING AF.
I typed this whole review out on the board and only made 1-2 typos.
rgb lighting is self explanatory. its gorgeous. everything about this board is gorgeous.
BOTTOM LINE OR TLDR:
Avid typist or Gamer you will not regret splurging on this board. It is the best purchase i have ever made for a PC peripheral and it works well on MAC as well. The included wrist rest is also really nice. though it is rigid is has a soft touch texture and has eliminated elbow and wrist discomfort that i would normally get on my glass desk surface.
ps. DID I MENTION HOW MUCH I LOVE THE VOLUME WHEEL? EVEN WORKS ON THE MAC!
Edit(11/3/2021) This keyboard is still rocking without a single issue yet! I hope they continue producing it. It seems the newer designs are straying away from what worked so well on this edition. Many of these companies are attempting to produce their own gamer switches rather than rely on MX Cherry. MX Cherry has the best reputation for switch quality though for obvious reasons so keep that in mind when researching your next keyboard.

Personally I don’t like the idea of building a keyboard. I like having media keys, a nice wrist rest, and functions built into the keyboard not found on others. This keyboard has everything I have wanted on one and the build quality is outstanding. It seems it will last many years without becoming worn or dirtied and looks amazing too.
I got the Cherry MX Speed Silver switches as I feel Optical switches are too underdeveloped as tech and I’ve read online they interfere with controllers, though I have never tried them before. The Silver switches are both extremely responsive and quiet, much more than my old Razer Green (Cherry MX Blue equivalent).
I also chose this over the much more expensive Corsair K100 RGB, I believe they have many of the same features (minus the K100’s macro keys, function wheel, and plush wrist rest), which make it much more worth it for the nearly $100 difference. The only thing I was a bit surprised about was the wrist rest being a soft feeling plastic rather than a plush one, but it serves me well in comfort and I trust it’s durability a lot more. My old keyboard was a Razer Blackwidow V2 and the wrist rest on that keyboard had been completely ripped after a few good years of use.
Overall, this keyboard is an excellent choice for gaming and other computing tasks, even just browsing the internet. The 8000hz Polling Rate is a big plus, so I trust I have the fastest response time I can. I would definitely recommend this to anybody looking for an excellent value gaming keyboard that will last a very long time.

Still using it after a few years. Just perfect. No issues noted

I love the low profile nature as I hate tall keyboards. The responsiveness is amazing. If your worried about it being loud and being picked up by your mic don’t worry, it’s never been picked up by my mic. Colours are amazing and customizability is too although in bright lighting the colours can seem very faded. The optional key caps that come for WASD are amazing and I swapped them out straight away. Quality all around.
Your Humble Narrator –
It’s a good, solid keyboard. The mechanical keys are solid, if a bit loud, but no louder than expected. Layout is good, basic QWERTY, though smaller than some ergonomic or gaming keyboards. The keys are illuminated which I thought would be unnecessary and silly; it’s actually useful when working in low light.
The Amazon review prompter suggests I tell you about “Typing speed” and “Weight.” I type about as fast on this keyboard as I do on most others. Most of the time it’s sitting on my desktop, so I don’t much care about the weight. It stays put. I like that.
My only complaint is CTRL-G doesn’t ring a bell. I miss the bell.

This is the best gaming keyboard the built quality is superb. The sound of the keys is so good, go for the keyboard you won’t regret it.

I’ve had this keyboard a few years now, nothing is wearing out or malfunctioning.
I should point out that I have spilled an entire mug of coffee straight into the keys and PCB inside, after 2 days of drying out it worked normally again.
Would highly recommend.
