Title: Coolermaster Masterkeys RGB boards
Post by: ThoughtArtist on Sun, 20 March 2016, 02:01:27: "The MasterKeys Pro L and S keyboards are sleek-looking designs with Cherry MX clickers. Cooler Master says the RGB LED lighting in these is a patented design that should offer stronger colors than regular LED-lit keys. The Pro L is a full 104-key design, while the Pro S ditches the numpad for easier access to the mouse."

Any thoughts? Not sure about marketing campaign though.

If I could only use those as mediakeys, and reassign them in Windows. I am still not sure which of the RGB keyboards I will buy, maybe the Shine 5 or the Corsair K70?
