When Cooler Master Launched their new QuickFire Line of gaming keyboards with Mechanical switched they were very well received. We have had the chance to test out all of the models even though we have not always been able to try out the different Cherry MX Switch types (we have gone through Red, Brown and Blue). Now while all of the models were well received there were complaints about more than a few of the features that were built in. One of the most common complaints that we have heard about the QuickFire line up is that the QuickFire Pro did not have full back lighting. Instead Cooler Master chose to only light up a small selection of keys that they called the gaming cluster. Still this keyboard has been bought by many gamers because it is one of the only mechanical keyboards that supports NKRO over USB. As an added bonus the QuickFire Pro has two modes of NKRO; Full and 6-Key. Well for those of you that have wished for a mechanical keyboard with full NKRO over USB and full back lighting your wait is over. Cooler Master has taken some of the best features of the QuickFire Pro and put them in a smaller version named the QuickFire TK and the best part,… it has full backlighting. Read on to find out all of the nice details.

The Box and Goodies -
As with the rest of the QuickFire Line up the TK has a nice looking box. Although we did not get one with our sample we did get images of what it looks like and also what you should get in the box. The front of the box has a very nice looking picture of the QuickFire TK. The illumination on the box will correspond for the color of switches you have inside… well sort of. The QuickFire TK comes with Blue, Red and Brown Switches, but as brown is not really a good color for lighting they changed the lights on that model to White. Inside the box, besides the keyboard you get a braided USB cable a key puller and well that is about it…
