Cooler Master Storm QuickFire Rapid Mechanical Gaming Keyboard w/ Cherry Blue MX Switches $51.99 with free shipping

Quote from nowsharing : Mine came in today. It's a great feeling keyboard, but you'll have to get over the horrible font and over branding. It's definitely less stately than a Das or IBM M.

Does yours have the 'old' or 'new' branding?

Old was ridiculous with logos everywhere new is supposed to be much more understated.

I suppose I should be expecting this soon, haven't received any updates after the backordered email.

when i review my order status online, this is the product that it links to:

CoolerMaster CM Storm QuickFire Pro Gaming Keyboard $74.99 regular price. Does this mean I should expect the Pro for 51.99 that I paid, or the Rapid which I believe this deal was originally for?

Curious which keyboard you guys are getting in the mail

I haven't seen the old one, but I count four tribal CM logos, QUICK FIRE on the space bar, and CMSTORM above the arrow keys. Horrible font and F5-F12 are pretty bad. But it does feel great to type on.

I received the rapid.

Hm, sounds like the old labeling.

Anybody else care to comment on whether they received the new or old labeling?

Also got the old version with more logos. Does not bother me much though

I'm sure it operates the same and all but I was hoping to get the new, myself.

Sigh. Still processing.

The keyboard is $70 on amazon and $80 on newegg so I'll stick it out and see what happens.

Got mine in last night (10/4). It does appear to be the old labeling but now that I've seen it in person, it doesn't seem that tacky.

Feel of the keyboard is very good. I like the rubberized coating and it seems like the keyboard is maybe a little more solid than the Rosewill boards if not the Razer.

I just received the product. It's not bad... not used to it, but it seems to be very sturdy.

Just checked again and STILL processing.

has anyone else stuck it out this long?

no, i received mine about aweek ago... but i'm pretty sure they will fulfill all the orders. havent heard anyone getting cancelled. call them?

I got the old graphics. But I had a problem with one of the keys squeaking so I got a replacement and the replacement also has the old graphics.

Doesn't really bother me that much but I'm worried about the longevity of the printing on the keys. My left "windows" key (with the ridiculous logo on it) is already fading. The Rosewill by comparison has laser etched & recessed graphics which I suspect will last a lot longer than the Cooler Master.

I really do hate the graphics on this thing but nothing I can't live with so long as it works well. I actually like the Rosewill better but the Cooler Master fits my desk/keyboard drawer better so I'm keeping this one.

2 months later, it's still working. It's a solid keyboard!

2 months later and still "processing"

But at least it's not canceled.

The puzzling thing is it's listed as in stock.
