I have this keyboard from the preorder sale on creative's site. Personally I like the keyboard a lot more than my Corsair K65, the switches are very similar to Logitech's ROMER G switches (due to them both being made by Omron). I personally like the layout and the backlight looks great with the LED's centered in the middle of the switch instead off at the top like Cherry switches, the board also has a white tray like the RAZER Chroma boards, which reflects the color up and IMO looks pretty sweet. All in all the keyboard its self is really good if you like the Omron switches like I do.
The major downside is Creative's Sound Blaster Connect software, which is hardly above the alpha stage, literally the only thing you can do in it is change the lighting setting, the lighting options are mediocre at best. My biggest issue by far is the lack of ability to program the key functions, which means one of my main reasons for buying the keyboard (the G keys) cant be programmed. Last I read the beta software with the ability to program they keys isnt due for a beta release until sometime in Feb.
All in all I do really like the keyboard but would recommend it only if you are willing to wait for the software to be updated to add support for one of the main features of the board.
