CoolerMaster Storm Quick Fire PRO Keyboard Review

TESTING

We subjected the keyboard to the usual battery of tests, however though this writer is not actually a gamer in the traditional sense, then one would still need to test under varying genres in order to ascertain the products effectiveness.

Out of mana, so now it is time to bring out that trusty sword.

Skyrim

Wow is the word for this, when using the strafing mode keys ID-Est. the ‘A’ and ‘D’ buttons the character deftly dodges from any fire ball or arrows. The tactile feedback is just enough to give the consumer the impression that the key has indeed been depressed. Four hours later and after yelling at various dragons to ‘ Eat hot lightning-death Dragon Scum, one noticed that there was no stress upon the fingers. In other words the Coolermaster Quick Fire Pro was a pleasure to use. One could play on this game for hours, but (and pardon the puns) the hours do Dragon (Drag on) and people do get very ‘Mud-Crabby’ about that!

Whilst writing this review one noticed that the space bar did not feel as firm as the other keys and sometimes giving a slightly differing sound to the solid thump present within the others. However in all fairness the aforementioned did take the punishment, usually associated with hours of gaming, so we feel that we can not mark the product down on this issue.

Typing

Generally speaking, typing was a pleasure and the product has already been used to compose this and many other reviews. The tactile feedback upon the keys is much better than that of a ‘Soft Touch’ keyboard and in comparison with the ‘Rapid’ version of this product, the ‘Pro’ feels the same. If there is only one criticism that we could lay at the product in this section,  then it would be the absence of a ‘wrist rest’.

Since the same ‘Cherry Red’ keys are utilised upon both products then it is prudent that we refer you to the previous ‘Typing-Test’ we employed whilst reviewing the ‘Rapid’ version of this product.

After many hours of typing the absence of a wrist rest (as described above) created a certain degree of strain. Granted that the keyboard is marketed as a gaming product, rather than that of a typists, however one does notice the issue and we feel that Coolermaster should include this within this model and not just the ‘Trigger’ product.

Let us now move on to the conclusion
