Corsair Vengeance K60 and M60 FPS Keyboard and Mouse
Corsair has been recognized as one of the best memory
manufacturers for quite some time now. Though, as of late they have been
pushing further and further into other segments of the PC market. Their most
recent push brought forth several accessories in the Vengeance series. Today,
were taking a look at the Corsair Vengeance K60 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard and
the Corsair M60 Laser Gaming Mouse. Back
in April we took a look at the K90 keyboard and M90 mouse, today were going to
see what the major differences are.
The K60 and M60 are both designed to be used in First Person Shooter, or FPS for short, games. The M60 features a rigid aluminum unibody design, and comes complete with 8 programmable buttons. It also features a 5700DPI enthusiast grade laser for precise movements. The M60 also has a very unique feature; a precision sniper button which when pressed and held reduces the DPI to ensure you have the most direct control over your aim. The K60 features Cherry MX Red mechanical switches, and features a brushed aluminum body. The A, S, D, F, and 1-6 keys come with replacement red keys which are contoured to ensure your fingers are always in the right place for your most common FPS buttons.
At the time of writing this article, the K60 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard seems to be available from $89.99, while the M60 Gaming Mouse is available from $52.99. Both the K60 and the M60 feature a two year warranty through Corsair, which has proven to have a very reliable warranty and customer service department!
