DV Hardware published a review of Cooler Master's new CM Storm QuickFire TK mechanical keyboard



Cooler Master recently added the CM Storm QuickFire TK to its line of mechanical gaming keyboards. The QuickFire TK is basically a more condensed version of the QuickFire Pro, this new model ditches the arrow keys as well as other navigation and editing keys. It's a compact, no-fuzz keyboard without too many bells and whistles, you get Cherry MX switches, key illumination, and NKRO. It seems this keyboard is aimed at gamers with a small desktop and LAN party goers who are in the market for a compact keyboard that you can easily take with you.

While the full-size QuickFire Pro is available with Cherry MX Black, Blue, Brown and Red switches, the QuickFire TK limits the choice to red, brown and blue. The red model has a red backlight, the blue one has a blue backlight and the brown one features a white backlight, probably because a brown backlight wouldn't be appealing enough. Each keyboard is reinforced with a steel plate, which has either a red, blue or brown coating, corresponding with the color of the Cherry MX switches.

When the QuickFire TK arrived in our test lab I was quite surprised by the size of the product's box - especially the box's width seemed very small. I knew this wasn't a full-sized keyboard but I didn't expect it to be this small.
