Linus Tech tips coverage of PS 2013 is brought to you by Western Digital Intel
and steel series two
1 we're here at the Corsair Booth we're going to check out what they're
announcing for mouse pads and keyboards
so first up is the Corsair mm200
extended this is more of a desk pad and less of a mouse pad you can see if you
wanted to you could probably have four individual people operating mice within
normal ranges on this mouse pad or you can put your key board here and your
mouse over here and not have to deal with that annoying lip that tends to
exist at the edge of your keyboard where it overlaps a little bit and it's really
frustrating next up we've got the mm400
compact which is just a smaller version of the existing mm400 so that's pretty
much it for things that you didn't already see from our computex
coverage now we're over on the other side where there's the new Raptor k30 so
from the Raptor branding that should tell you that it's more of a value
oriented option compared to Vengeance but I think given the price you guys are
probably going to like the features of this keyboard so it has the same
aesthetic as the Vengeance keyboards however it does use plastic construction
and membrane Keys versus aluminum construction with mechanical keys but it
still got backlighting it's still got a variety of different brightness levels
it's still got programmable keys with three different banks over here a
lockable Windows key and dedicated media keys so when you look at what it's up
against that that makes it look pretty compelling actually if you're looking
for a more value oriented keyboard personally I prefer mechanical though
which actually is fantastic because right over there we've got Corsair
showing off their Cherry MX Blue and Cherry MX Brown Vengeance series gaming
keyboards which are available for pre-order now and are going to be
shipping by the end of the month so for all those of you who are asking when are
they coming when are they coming they are finally coming now be excited guys
