Cooler Master MK750 Review

👤by Matthew Hodgson Comments 📅25-01-18
Conclusion

All in all, we’ve been very impressed by the MK750, despite its £160 pricetag. This puts it firmly in line with the Corsair K70, SteelSeries Apex M750 and the Razer Blackwidow Chroma V2, all of which are very good and capable keyboards. The MK750 certainly trades blows with all of these heavy hitters. Even though the price is around about the same as its competitors, we’d like to see the overall cost of keyboards come down to a more palatable level.

RGB backlighting is a must-have feature for most, these days. This keyboard delivers on that front, with bright, vivid lighting, even during the day. Illumination animations, which can sometimes be iffy on other keyboards, are smooth and look great.

The choice of three distinct types of Cherry MX key switch is great for the consumer, allowing them a wide range of feel and noise, depending on their particular usage type. If you’re primarily a gamer, we would recommend the red switch, somewhere in-between with gaming and typing, the brown would probably suit, whereas if you intend to use this almost exclusively for typing, the blue switch is likely to fit best.

One of our favourite features of this keyboard was the magnetic wrist rest, being super easy to remove and put back into place, with no risk of damage to plastic clips traditionally used for a wrist rest.

At the end of the day, Cooler Master have done a fantastic job with the MK750, offering everything you need in a LAN-Friendly keyboard while also providing the home-comforts you come to expect.



Comfortable, capable and good looking, the MK750 performs well and is certainly worth considering.
