“The Corsair Strafe is a great all round keyboard for work and gaming
Packed full of cool features that put it ahead of the competition. The MX Silent switches are certainly amazing and it would be hard to imagine buying the stock MX Red over the M

More expensive than standard mechanical switches
Corsair Utility software is still a little hard to get your head around
It's hard to believe that it's been almost 4 years from my first look at the original Corsair Vengeance keyboards. Between now and then not too much has changed, the Strafe still has the same cleaning styling though to be far we lost the solid one-piece...
Sweet lighting options, Relatively quiet as mechanical boards come, Very comfortable finger-feel
No dedicated media controls, Software can be overwhelming, Lighting turns off when PC is in standby
The Strafe RGB is a fantastic-feeling keyboard that's comfortable and quiet, and packs glorious multi-color backlighting. (Just mind the software, which requires dedication to master.) Read More…...
Unique Cherry MX Silent key switches, Massively capable CUE enables astonishing lighting effects and other actions, synchronized among all your Corsair peripherals, Included optional key caps for FPS and MOBA gamers, Snapon wrist rest, USB passthrough por
Thick, unwieldy USB cablling, Requires CUE to be installed and running. And CUE has a few problems, Cannot define macros using modifier keys, 2year warranty?
The Corsair Strafe RGB MX Silent keyboard is the most interesting keyboard I've reviewed lately, due to its unique (for now) key switches and almost absurdly elaborate Corsair Utility Engine software. Both the lighting effects and macro programmability of...
It takes a certain amount of chutzpah to name your product after a feature, especially when the word has connotations far beyond the reality of what is possible. Unless this is a sponge keyboard with sponge switches kept in a vacuum then it wont be silent...

The Corsair Strafe RGB is an expensive keyboard. At $150 on both Amazon and Newegg for the Cherry MX Red and Brown versions, and $160 for the Cherry MX Silent, the Strafe RGB carries a significant price tag.The Strafe RGB has features expected at this pr...

Simply put, Corsair did a phenomenal job with the STRAFE RGB keyboard, and the MX Silent switches gives the keyboard a slightly more elegant touch. There is no need to modify your keycaps with rubber O-rings to silence the loud clicking of a Red switch, r...
ANY mechanical keyboard does take getting used to a little, that's the honest truth. Give yourself a few days with the keyboard to fully understand it and get a feel for it. See, using a mechy definitely is a little different compared to your run of the...
Cherry MX Silent RGB Red key switches, RGB LED lighting, Extremely customizable color capabilities, Can share and download lighting effects, macros, and more, All keys can be changed or be used for macros
No storage for extra key caps and key puller
The Corsair Strafe RGB MX Silent mechanical keyboard worked perfectly after installing the drivers from the Corsair website! Lighting options worked well, colors reproduced correctly, and there was a long list of default lighting effects to choose from. F...
Robust Built, Decent Cue Software, USB Pass through port, Fun to use, Tactile response
Noisy for an office, Heavy
So, whether you should choose Corsair Strafe Cherry MX blue or not is not a question. As it's one of the best mechanical gaming keyboards available out there. And the Matte finishing on the Corsair Strafe with individual LED backlighting and of course mor...

RGB Lighting is mesmerising, Simple design that works, Cherry MX RGB Keys, Powerful RGB tweaking
Expensive, Control Panel is a UI nightmare
The Strafe RGB is a fantastic keyboard with RGB lighting that not only looks great, but also is functional. The software is terrible, but once you get used to it, it's fine. Plus you need not come back to it once you're settings are all done the way you l...
