What a difference a keyboard makes. The quality of every keystroke matters when attempting to craft an ideal setup, particularly if you’re into competitive gaming. While the prices of flagship models are understandably out of reach for many, these boards aren’t immune to massive discounts. Case in point, the cost of Corsair’s K60 Pro TKL RGB has tumbled down to a new, surprisingly affordable all-time low.

On Amazon US, the small-but-mighty board is available for $49.99, a 45% ($40.26) saving relative to its typical list price. Enormous as this discount is, it also makes K60 Pro TKL RGB the most affordable it’s ever been. Prior to this deal, the cheapest this keyboard ever got was around $75 during Black Friday.
As its name suggests, K60 Pro TKL RGB is a tenkeyless keyboard. For the uninitiated, this means that it forgoes a numpad thereby reducing its footprint on your desk. This frees up some extra space so you can more deftly perform those game-winning flicks in first-person shooters like Counter-Strike 2.
K60 Pro TKL RGB features Corsair’s bespoke optical-mechanical keyswitches, dubbed ‘OPX’. The company designs these switches with a 1.0mm actuation distance and force of 45g. Combine this with an 8,000Hz polling rate and you have a keyboard that’s extremely responsive to the touch, delivering your inputs in a flash. These specifications won’t improve your skills but they will give them a lightning-fast platform from which they work can work their magic.
In a welcome touch, K60 Pro TKL RGB pairs to your PC via a detachable USB Type-C cable. It may not seem like much, but when it comes time to tidy your space or you fancy bringing the keyboard elsewhere, you’ll be thankful for its inclusion. Of course, no modern peripheral is complete without RGB which you can customise via Corsair’s iCue software to be as rainbow-radiant or simple and static as you like.
