Link is only for the keyboard

If you click the link you'll see it comes with a free mouse, and below that there is a linky for the mouse

Great deal on the reds if you like reds. I have both browns and reds and the browns are better to type on, reds better to game on. Though the difference is pretty small in either situation.

When you add the keyboard to your cart, the mouse is added automatically.

Browns are $85 with coupon.
Also free mouse

Thank you for posting the deal. I have been looking out for a gaming Keyboard as a Christmas present.

can not ship to NY, what is that?

What differences do the colors make?

Quote from treaphas : What differences do the colors make?

Tactility/amount of force required for activation.

Blues make a clicky sound and have a 'bump' on the way down, browns make a clacky sound and have a 'bump' on the way down as well. Reds are silent and go down smoothly with no 'bump'. I don't remember the forces off the top of my head, but I think blues are ~55g of force, browns ~50g, reds ~45g.

A lot of bad reviews for both KB/Mouse
Rosewill products are more eye candy than quality, I own their RK-8100 gaming keyboard and in paper looks impressive but in real life usage it's junk.

Been tracking the black switches RK-9000...Newegg jacked the prices up before offering the new coupon, was cheaper literally a few days ago.

You bought a 20 dollar gaming keyboard; it's not going to be high quality. Truth is Rosewill makes some good stuff. Their PSUs are more than decent because they finally started to rebrand some reputable OEM power supplies.

This is typically a 70 dollar mechanical keyboard, much different than your 20 dollar rubber dome board. I own both the CM Quickfire and this Rosewill keyboard and they are both very solid products.

In fact, the Rosewill RK-9000 is basically a Filco Majestouch rebrand. And Filco makes some quality keyboards.

Just wanted to throw this out there.

I just don't like that mini USB connection that goes into the keyboard. I see way too many reviews of that getting loose and falling out. Why can't they come up with some kind of secured connector. Like a clip of some sort to lock the USB in place... Still a good deal for mech. I might have bitten if I wasn't so broke right now lol.
