Cougar ATTACK X3 RGB Gaming Keyboard Review @ Madshrimps

Published: | Posted By:

Umm,  Can we get someone from marketing over there?  These product names are getting a little sketch.

With the ATTACK X3 RGB, Cougar is introducing another affordable peripheral to the market which houses the reliable Cherry MX RGB switches and we have additional flexibility of choice between four different types: Black, Brown, Blue and Red. The keyboard is quite light for a mechanical model at just 0.9 Kg and features a 1.8m long braided USB cable with gold-plated USB ports, as we have seem with other high-end peripherals. Thanks to the brushed aluminum top plate, the chassis of the ATTACK X3 RGB is reinforced, but also thanks to this layer, the LED lighting reflection looks even better.

At CES I asked the question "Why Cherry MX Switches?".  It seems the Corsair marekting engine created demand so great that even people that can't tell the difference demand that their keyboards be made with Cherry switches.

The thing I'm struggling with is, how often do people swap keyboards?  I mean here I am using an Microsoft Natural Elite that has been on my desk for almost 20 years and with a service record like that eventually the keyboard market is going to dry up.
