The new Corsair K70 PRO TKL ships with the company's brand-new Corsair MGX Hyperdrive magnetic switches, which incorporate Hall-effect sensors for fast magnetic activation. This is excellent for the keyboard's Rapid Trigger support, which allows key presses and de-presses to be registered instantly. Corsair notes that its new switches outpace "even the best mechanical switches."

Being magnetic, you can customize the actuation distance per key between 0.1mm and 4.0mm. With this, it's not just a keyboard for competitive shooters like Valorant, Apex Legends, Counter-Strike 2, and Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 - but one suitable for all games.

FlashTap is a new SOCD system that enhances movement when pressing multiple keys at once. It includes modes to prioritize the first or last key presses, and alongside Rapid Trigger, it will allow more PC gamers to "perform esports-grade character movement."
