Corsair K70 RAPIDFIRE

The Corsair K70 is an excellent gaming keyboard. Its Cherry MX Speed switches have a short pre-travel distance and low actuation force, making the keys feel incredibly responsive and easy to press. There's very little flex to the board, the ergonomics are good, and there's backlighting, although it's limited to a single color. All keys are macro-programmable, but there aren't any dedicated macro keys for MMO games.
