Corsair has officially launched the K70 PRO TKL, bringing its innovative MGX magnetic switch technology to the tenkeyless (TKL) format. The new K70 PRO TKL keyboard is packed with features like Rapid Trigger and FlashTap, designed to meet the demands of competitive gamers looking for speed, precision, and customisation.
At the core of this keyboard are Corsair’s new MGX Hyperdrive magnetic switches. By using Hall-effect sensors, these switches offer lightning-fast activation, allowing for quicker and more responsive keystrokes than traditional mechanical switches. The Rapid Trigger function ensures that key inputs are both registered and reset immediately, meaning there’s no delay in pressing the same key again. Plus, you can fine-tune the actuation point anywhere from a super-sensitive 0.1mm to a deeper 4.0mm, tailoring the keyboard to your unique gameplay style.
For those looking to improve their in-game movement, FlashTap is a standout feature. It’s a specialised SOCD (Simultaneous Opposite Cardinal Directions) system, letting users make precision movements in esports titles by prioritising the first or last key pressed. Paired with Rapid Trigger, this combination enhances techniques like strafing or mirroring moves, giving you a competitive edge.
A quick press of the Game Mode button optimises the keyboard for pro-level performance: locking any keys that might be mispressed, turning RGB lighting to a static mode, and activating Rapid Trigger for faster input recognition—all with a single touch.
Corsair’s AXON hyper-processing technology powers the K70 PRO TKL, ensuring minimal lag with 8,000Hz hyper-polling. This registers keystrokes in just one-eighth of a millisecond, keeping your inputs responsive even in the most fast-paced games.
To further refine the gaming experience, Corsair has pre-lubricated the MGX Hyperdrive switches, using a double-rail structure for stable and consistent keystrokes. The keyboard is also equipped with two layers of premium sound-dampening foam to reduce noise, creating a quieter and more immersive feel without sacrificing performance.
For those who prioritise performance and flexibility, the K70 PRO TKL combines Hall-effect switches, Rapid Trigger, 8,000Hz polling, and FlashTap in a sleek, wired design—offering pro-level speed in a TKL form.
