Great Looks, Build Quality, Excellent Typing & Gaming Performance, Great RGB Lighting
No Height Adjustable Legs, No Wrist Rest
Overall the CK550 is one of best entry level mechanical keyboards we've tested but there are a few pain points that need to be considered.A quick search shows that the keyboards that include a wrist rest are more pricier than the CK550 but there's no excu...

Abstract: CoolerMaster isn't necessarily known for its gaming keyboards. I mean, it's not called KeyboardMaster, is it? No, that's the name of Rick Wakeman's criminally under-read autobiography. And that's a shame - not being known for gaming keyboards, I mean, rat...

Both the CK550 and MM720 are beautifully designed and built, Creative use of RGB lighting, with great options for customization, Minimal to no input lag when typing or using the mouse
A bit pricey for the average consumer, The RGB lights on the keyboard can be a bit confusing to navigate using only the keyboard inputs
Paired next to each other, the Cooler Master CK550 Keyboard and the MM720 Gaming Mouse are a sight to behold. Sleek, effortlessly stylish, and gloriously brought to life through creative use of RGB lighting; this duo will look stylish on any home or offic...

Gateron switch options, RGB(?), Too many onthefly RGB controls, Twoyears warranty, Pricing
Permanently attached cable, Flexing when keyboard stands on the popout feet, Some function keys could have been assigned for other functions
Functions, functions functions…While this is a preference, Cooler Master CK550 has too many LED controls. While keyboards like TteSports Meka Pro and even GALAX's Xanova Magnetar RGB has a hotkey for a Calculator, My Computer, Web Browser and even a mute...

Abstract: When I was a little kid, I was a very picky eater. One of the foods I did not like at all was cheese. I would eat a pizza with cheese on it, but I would not eat other stuff with the yellow substance. One day, I remember someone was going to be bringing bu...
No wrist rest, Softwarefree lighting configuration is nice, but it's also convoluted and unintuitive
The CK550 is capable of some neat tricks despite its budget orientation. The LED lighting is bright and incredibly flexible, while the Gateron switches are more than a match for their Cherry counterparts. The CK550 is one of the better (if not the best) g...
Even comes with a wire keycap puller, Simple design helps the vibrant RGB lighting stand out, Sturdy feet, Did we say the RGB lighting was vibrant?, Gateron Red switches are really smooth out of the factory, Great value for money
Bottoming out is a noisy affair, Cable is non-removable and not sleeved
The Cooler Master CK550 offers commendable build quality for the price point it commands, as is the brightness of the LEDs. Cooler Master could add some dampening material below the metal plate for a more solid sound upon bottoming out. Or perhaps improve...
Great value proposition, RGB everything, Flagship features, Gateron mechanical switches (CK550), 10,000 DPI sensor (CM310), Ambidextrous - Great for lefties (CM310), Great for gaming
