Features:
Full Cherry MX switches
Offering the best available mechanical hardware, QuickFire XT integrates Cherry MX switches. These provide the QuickFire XT with the ability to respond to, and recover from, furious button presses with almost zero lag. Vastly improve your possible gaming actions per minute by utilizing a QuickFire XT Mechanical Gaming Keyboard in FPS, MMO, RTS, and other games. Cherry MX Red, Green, Brown, or Blue switch availability will vary based on region.Each CHERRY MX switch is tested and guaranteed to last at least 50 million key press.
 
Slim keyboard body- ergonomic typing angle
The QuickFire XT makes itself a more journey-ready partner with its super-slim body. It allows the keyboard to be more ergonomically-friendly while being easier to transport than most full-sized mechanical keyboards.
 
Detachable cable & Full size USB plug
The full size USB connector improves on the aspect of durability, maximizes conductivity and ensures error-free transmission by using a high quality, gold- plated connector and contact.
 
Multi media & win-lock shortcuts
FN key combos allow you to quickly and conveniently access multimedia commands and to lock the WIN keys so you avoid accidental presses.
 
Turbo mode - repeat rate tweaking (over PS/2)
In games many commands can be executed by hitting a single key. A higher repeat rate means commands can be issued faster, giving you an edge over competitors while putting less strain on your wrist and fingers
 
 
 
What are the benedits to Mechanical Keyboards?
Traditional membrane (rubber dome) keyboards require you to press the button all the way down (bottom out) in order to activate, which can lead to finger fatigue, long-term discomfort, and lowered responsiveness.
 
CM Storm Mechanical keyboards utilize Cherry MX physical switches to determine the activation of when a key is pressed and in most cases do not require you to bottom-out on your keystrokes. That means as soon as your key is pressed to the activation point (2mm or half-way), the corresponding action will occur.
 
Users who type on their keyboards for extended periods of time - whether for work, gaming, or leisure - will feel the difference. Mechanical switches are also built from a higher quality, making them more durable for long term use (up to 50 million key presses).
 
It's important to know that a "gaming keyboard" is not necessarily a mechanical keyboard. Regardless of how many buttons or flashy lights equipped on the board, it will still lack the comfort, durability, and responsiveness of a mechanical equivalent.
 
 
Everyone has a type!
The keyboard is a very personal device - you use it every time you're at your PC - so why not go for a more satisfying experience?
 
CM Storm by Cooler Master provides a full line of mechanical keyboards with multiple Cherry MX switch types. The unique characteristics* to certain switch types include feedback (audio and/or tactile) as well as varying activation forces. Depending on the switch type chosen, it can provide an added level of customized comfort, responsiveness, and efficiency.

Cherry MX Blue switches are a typists dream. Some gamers prefer this switch because they just sound so good. The blue switch is the switch type people generally think of when thinking of a mechanical keyboard.
