Initially expected to arrive in October of this year, Corsair’s first gaming peripherals are now finally available for purchase, including the Vengeance K90 keyboard and Vengeance M90 mouse which were specifically designed for MMO and RTS fans.

Starting with the Vengeance K90, this keyboard is constructed out of aluminum and was designed to pack the same mechanical switches as those used in the Cherry MX.

According to Corsair, these are supposed to require the least amount of force to actuate and each key has a 4mm of total travel without producing any sort of clicking sound.

The keys are also backlit thanks to no less than 90 individual LEDs with three levels of illumination.

Compared to regular keyboards, the K90 is capable of detecting up to 20 simultaneous keystrokes and includes 18 customizable macro keys with support for three different sets of macros.

Moving to the M90 mouse, this also gets the same sort of macro functionality as the keyboard, but, this time, there are “only” 15 programmable buttons available.

An on-board flash memory lets you save your macros in up to six profiles that can be switched on-the-fly just as is the case with the resolution of the 5700 DPI Avago ADNS-9500 laser sensor.

“We're hardcore gamers ourselves, and with the new Corsair Vengeance line, we've developed precisely the products we always wanted." said Ruben Mookerjee, VP and General Manager of the Components Business Unit at Corsair. 

"They're carefully designed to give you the competitive edge you need to win," concluded the company’s rep.

Both the K90 and the M90 should be available as we speak from the company’s worldwide distributors. Recommended pricing for the Vengeance K90 is set at $129 (99 EUR), while the M90 mouse sells for $79 (60.7 EUR).
