Corsair K95 RGB Platinum XT Review

Lighting

The lighting on the K95 Platinum XT is everything we have come to expect from Corsair, but with one exception. If you’ve been fiddling with RGB lighting for as long as we have you’ll know there are two colours it struggles with, yellow (which tends towards green) and white (with leans into the blue spectrum). The white is perfect, crystal clear and no noticable blue cast. The yellow on the other hand is a curious beast, with the yellow backlighting tending towards green, but the keys themselves have a strange red cast to them. It’s the worst of both worlds. Hopefully this is just our pre-release sample, but it’s something to bear in mind if you’re determined to have yellow as your hue of choice.
