Corsair K70 RGB Pro Keyboard Drops Over 55% to Record Low Price in Germany

Corsair’s K70 RGB Pro, long considered a premium gaming keyboard, has dropped to its lowest price in the current promotion cycle—over 55% off the original launch cost. That means you can now pick up the metal-housed board with Cherry MX Speed RGB Silver switches for under 100 euros at major German retailers, making it an unusually strong value proposition for fans of fast, low-latency inputs.

Key takeaways

  • The Corsair K70 RGB Pro launched at over 200 euros, but is currently discounted by 55% at MediaMarkt and Saturn.
  • Pricing in the promotion puts the keyboard below 100 euros.
  • It’s rated for 100 million guaranteed keystrokes and uses Cherry MX Speed RGB Silver switches with a linear, non-click feel.
  • The keyboard supports a high 8,000 Hz polling rate via Axiom Hyper-Polling.
  • Features include PBT double-shot keycaps, anti-ghosting with N-key rollover, and iCUE support for configuration plus onboard storage for up to 50 profiles.
  • Customer feedback averages 4.4 out of 5 stars, with the main criticism aimed at the included wrist rest.

Massive discount brings the K70 RGB Pro under 100 euros

At launch, Corsair priced the K70 RGB Pro above 200 euros, positioning it as a high-end option. Now, the same keyboard is being sold in the promotion with a 55% reduction, available at MediaMarkt and Saturn for less than 100 euros—an all-time low price for this particular model in the promotion coverage.

While newer Corsair boards have since taken over the premium spotlight (including the Corsair Galleon 100 SD with an integrated Stream Deck), the K70 RGB Pro remains notable for pairing “high-quality, performance-focused” hardware with a discount-level price that makes it easier to recommend to gamers who want a serious keyboard without paying flagship money.

Specs and features: linear switches, high polling, and iCUE control

The K70 RGB Pro is built around a metal body and is rated for 100 million guaranteed keystrokes. The German-market version uses illuminated Cherry MX Speed RGB Silver switches. Corsair describes the switches as smoothed for fast, light actuation with a linear response—no tactile click—designed to support quick inputs and reduced input lag.

For responsiveness, it uses Axiom Hyper-Polling with an 8,000 Hz polling rate. On top of that, the keyboard includes PBT double-shot keycaps, dedicated multimedia controls plus a rotary dial, anti-ghosting with N-key rollover, and an optional wrist rest. It also provides onboard storage for up to 50 profiles, with configuration managed through Corsair’s iCUE software.

Reception: strong reviews, but the wrist rest draws the most criticism

In customer reviews at MediaMarkt, the K70 RGB Pro averages 4.4 out of 5 stars, with feedback generally positive. In a review run through GameStar, the keyboard largely impressed on build and execution, specifically praising its materials and overall fit within the long-running K70 line.

The main drawback highlighted is the wrist rest. One reviewer noted that, while the rest is magnetically attached, the included hand support could have been higher quality—particularly at the keyboard’s higher original price. Even so, the overall sentiment is that there wasn’t much to complain about once the board is judged on performance and build.

  • Exemplary build quality
  • Robust construction thanks to an aluminium plate
  • Detachable USB cable
  • Magnet-mounted wrist rest
  • N-key rollover anti-ghosting support
  • 8,000 Hz polling rate
  • Strong RGB lighting
  • Wrist rest could be better made
  • High original price

Other current deals include Anno, a Star Wars PS5 disc drop, and PC upgrades

Alongside the keyboard promotion, there are additional hardware and software discounts currently being highlighted. Among them is an E-paper edition of GameStar’s latest Anno special issue tied to the Hippodrom DLC, plus a Star Wars title on PS5 that is available on disc shortly after release at a notably low price.

There are also PC hardware upgrade offers mentioned, alongside a discounted PS5 exclusive set in historical Japan.
