The TKL Advantage: More Desk Space, Faster Reactions

Why do so many pros ditch the number pad? The tenkeyless (TKL) layout isn't just for looks... it's a strategic choice. By removing the numpad, the Corsair K70 PRO TKL gives you a massive amount of extra real estate for your mouse. For gamers who use low DPI settings for precision aiming in titles like Valorant or Apex Legends, this means more room for wide, sweeping mouse movements without bumping into your keyboard. ⌨️

This compact form factor puts your hands closer together, creating a more ergonomic and natural posture for long gaming sessions. While many brands offer compact designs, with some excellent options among Glorious gaming keyboards, Corsair has refined this layout specifically for competitive play.

Built for Performance: What's Under the Hood?

The real magic of the K70 PRO TKL lies in its competition-focused technology. This isn't your average office keyboard.

AXON Hyper-Processing Technology ⚡

At its core is Corsair's AXON technology, delivering keystrokes up to 8x faster than conventional gaming keyboards with an 8,000Hz hyper-polling rate. What does that mean for you? Near-instantaneous input registration. In a game where a millisecond can decide a win or a loss, the responsiveness of the Corsair K70 PRO TKL provides a tangible advantage.

Unbeatable Durability

From its rugged aluminium frame to the PBT double-shot keycaps, this keyboard is built to withstand the intensity of competitive gaming and daily content creation. The keycaps resist wear, fading, and shine, ensuring your board looks and feels pristine for years. It's a premium build that justifies the investment over many other gaming keyboards in South Africa.

Why the Corsair K70 PRO TKL Shines for Content Creators

While its gaming prowess is clear, the Corsair K70 PRO TKL has a specialised feature set that makes it a creator's best friend.

The iconic "Tournament Switch" at the back is a standout feature. Flick it, and the keyboard instantly locks into a distraction-free mode with static backlighting and disabled macros, ensuring you're compliant for any competitive event. For creators, this is a brilliant way to focus... one switch to kill all distracting lighting effects and potential macro misfires while you're live.

Combine this with Corsair's powerful iCUE software, and you can create complex macros for streaming software like OBS or Streamlabs. Imagine starting your stream, switching scenes, and triggering sound effects all from a single key press. While competitors like the various Razer gaming keyboards offer similar software suites, Corsair's integration and the physical tournament switch give it a unique edge for streamers who also compete. The customisable per-key RGB lighting is also top-tier, allowing for stunning visual setups that can sync with your on-screen action, a feature common in many of Razer's RGB offerings. ✨
