Corsair Gaming K68 Review | APH Networks

Lock and load. You strap down with your usual auto buy combination and hit a set of familiar keys to radio your teammates. Go go go! The moment is yours. You and your team rush out of the spawn zone, as if a trained army in one accord, and into the stairway. Before you turn the corner, a teammate throws a flashbang. The flashbang flashes and your group of ten or so players point your AK47s in expectation of your opponents. All clear. Now you are into the building. Suddenly, at the top right corner of your screen, a teammate takes a bullet to the head and dies. You hear gunshots in the background. You turn around, only to spot four guys not on your team with a storm of bullets traveling your way. You turn around to look for a corner to hide, only to see a second group of opponents of equal size are already there. You take aim at them, but it was too late: You are dead. "That is not possible!", you yell at the top of your lungs. "How did they get here so fast?" Just as you wave your hands in the air, a couple of fingers make contact with the Mountain Dew sitting next to your keyboard. It falls over. You died in the game. A drink spills all over your keyboard. Is all lost? Fear not: If your keyboard is the Corsair Gaming K68, its IP32 dust and spill resistant certification will mean a good cleaning with a wet towel will bring you back into the game in no time. Close calls? You are covered.
