Review: Vengeance K60 Performance FPS Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

Corsair’s Vegeance series is phenomenal. If this keyboard isn’t what you’re looking for, then I suggest checking out the Corsair Vengeance K90.

Unique Features

This keyboard comes with textured keys for the W, A, S, and D keys that are commonly used with FPS (first person shooter) games. It also has the #1 – #6 keys texturized. These texture keys are optional — so you don’t have to use them if you dislike them. If you DO want to use them, then simply remove the original keys using the included tool and put in the textured versions. This is easy and fast to do. These textured keys have unique ridges on them too so that you can easily identify them with your fingers. A case is included to store the keys that you’re not using — I suggest keeping that handy.

The included wrist rest is NOT full sized, which you may like or dislike. It mounts by the WASD keys so that your wrist can rest as you tap these common keys.

Performance

Hybrid keys (rubber dome switches and Cherry MX Mechanical). The volume barrel roller works well. The textured keys really do help in gaming, especially during longer sessions and since there is full key matrix anti-ghosting as well as a 20 Key Rollover, you don’t have to worry about keys not being detected properly.

Conclusion

This keyboard is great for those who do a lot of FPS gaming. While it lacks all the extra hotkey, macro keys, G-Keys, etc. that similar gaming keyboards have, it brings texturized keys, which many keyboards do not have. This helps keep the keyboard with a smaller form factor, and since the wrist rest is not full-sized, it further ensures that’s the case.

Some people may need some getting use to this keyboard since only some of the keys are textured and since the wrist rest is small, but after the initial getting-use-to stage, you’ll welcome it.

I’ll be honest. This review is pretty late. In fact I had everything but the conclusion written and had it sitting for a year. I decided to release this information anyway because this TV is still going strong and looks amazing.

Windows 8 Consumer Preview Review – From Windows XP x32 to Windows 8 x64

windows-8-consumer-preview-review-from-windows-xp-x32-to-windows-8-x64

So as mentioned in our Windows 8 Consumer Preview Installation Guide, I recently went from Windows XP 32-bit to Windows 8 64-bit.

Not only did I skip Windows Vista and Windows 7, but I went from x32 to x64, which also let me use more than 2.75gb’s of RAM.

Many say that Microsoft has a habbit of failing every other release. They say:

Windows 3.1 / 3.11 – Awesome
Windows 95 – Failure
Windows 98 – Awesome
Windows ME – Failure
Windows XP – Awesome
Windows Vista – Failure
Windows 7 – Awesome
Windows 8 — ((FAILURE??))

I don’t agree with this really, and this obviously skips some of their other operating system versions. Is Windows 8 a failure? Read on.
