fit wits coverage of CES 2017 is brought to you by fractal design MSI and cable modern check out the links in the description below or you'll wake up next to me tomorrow morning alright guys we're here at the corsair booth now and they're showing off a brand new keyboard this is the k 95 Platinum mu using some MX speed switches I do believe let's take a closer look there yep that's that's totally speed switch I just knew it I just knew it from from touching it totally so the the newest thing about this and I think probably the most visible is the light bar that you see right here going all the way down the entire keyboard there's actually 19 different zones you can completely configure this just like you can with any of the other RGB LEDs to pretty much do any kind of effect that you might imagine so that's pretty cool the other cool thing about this board is that they've brought back the USB 2.0 pass-through right on the back here so that's one thing that the community really wanted back in the game so Corsair has brought it back to you guys also it's got eight megabytes of onboard memory so you can store up to three profiles and pretty much take the keyboard wherever you want with you and never have to worry about your profiles not being left behind I should say there's also a button right here where you can switch on the fly between those three profiles at any time regardless of where you might be gaining from and the last big update to this keyboard is that the wrist rest is now featuring two different textures you've got kind of like a smooth texture right here it is completely magnetic so you can just pop it out like so flip it around and now you've got a completely different texture because everyone has their preference on what kind of surface they want their wrists to be resting on so MSRP on this bad boy is $1.99 I believe and availability is going to be what's that q1 q1 q1 thank you very much q1 availability availability so stay tuned for this coming very soon it's pretty exciting let's go ahead and see what else they got here Hey look they chopped off half the macro Peas alright so by now you guys are probably familiar with coursers and vengeance led series Ram very popular very beautiful looking stuff now they've pretty much taken the same thing and made it RGB compatible so you pretty much get the full gamut of color spectrum that you would expect from an RGB device these days and I think I do think that they look a little bit brighter and I was asking them about that they've actually done some refinements to the PCB itself to be able to deliver more power to the LEDs and that's why they are a bit more bright and vibrant than the the Vengeance LEDs series which is pretty cool this also comes along with some software in Corsair link now this is a beta software so don't take everything you see here with a grain of salt there are some features that are not available yet but this is a pretty cool software from what they've shown me so far you can actually synchronize all of the LEDs on each of the modules or you can have them run separately and have their own profiles you can group them together or not there's the kind of more what you would expect as far as like LED effects including like the rainbow effect you know rainbow wave color spectrum pulse breathing and all that sort of thing you can also change the plateau or the slope also there's on some onboard storage believe it or not on these modules so even if you were to configure an LED profile on this kit and take them out of one computer and put them in another one even if that computer didn't have Corsair link it would still boot up with the same color profile that you would set on the on your first rig so that's pretty cool actually um as far as MSRP goes they did not say but these should be available relatively soon so stay tuned for that hey look it's the MP 500 nvme SSD aimed to drive that we Paul and I talked about an awesome hardware cool alright guys that is gonna wrap it up for the Corsair booth here at CES 2017 thank you guys so much for tuning in be sure to stay tuned for more CES coverage coming at you really soon and huge thanks to my sponsors fractal design MSI and cable mod go ahead and check out their stuff in the description below have a good one guys see you the next one
