We review the Corsair K55 RGB Pro XT gaming keyboard to see how it performs in game and when typing. Is this the new budget king?
If you already own the older Corsair K55, then an upgrade to the newer version may not be entirely worth it just yet but for those looking to pick up a new budget keyboard or fancy a quieter switch, the K55 RGB Pro XT is a fine way to go.
Ben's interest in video games started as a result of his intense need to be better than his sister at something. It didn't work but it started a lifelong passion in gaming, which then evolved when he built his first PC. He completely botched it but it was fun and he hasn't stopped since. He's currently fighting an embittered battle to get even slightly competitive at Apex Legends. He has a particular interest in peripherals and loves messing around with his setup.
