Compact design ; Pretty, colorful illumination ; Great in-game performance

Impractical swappable keys ; Inconsistent macro features ; Software is a mixed bag

The Rosewill RGB80 is a solid tenkeyless gaming keyboard with good performance and fun lighting effects.

Got the keyboard when it was on sale for $49.99, with free shipping. The 16.8 million color backlight is very nice, and the keyboard feels amazing to type on. The keyboard comes with the black keys installed. You can easily pop them off and install the...

Good weight, won't get Blue's always my favorite switch, nice feedback.
