Conclusion

The Coolermaster ‘Quick fire’ Pro performs admirably in a myriad of differing gaming sections. The partial back lighting is also a welcome step up from the ‘Rapid’ model. In addition to this the differing modes available are also a welcoming touch. However, it would have been nice to be able to change the colours to either Blue or Green. Having said this one cannot have everything, and the colour that is available is what we call a sensible Red. Rather than looking like the lips of a ‘Loose woman’ walking the streets, the red employed by Coolermaster is more of glowing Lava effect.

Moving on to the general feel of the product, then one could say that by its build and cut, it is about as subtle and weighs as heavy as a ten-pound sledge hammer. However this is actually a good thing and reassures the consumer that the product is built to last!  As for gaming, the keyboard is fast and very responsive in our tests and the ‘clack’ of the keys feels comforting.

Typing on this keyboard, in general feels an absolute pleasure, and in-general there are less ‘typos’ produced as the response and tactile ‘feedback’ is much greater than that of a ‘Soft touch’ model. In all fairness we have to mention that the general typing is hampered by the absence of a ‘wrist rest’ and as such, if one is utilising this product in this medium then one may be subject to a certain degree of strain.

If we revisit the style and cut of the controller and its subtle ‘evilness’, then combined with the volcano-red lighting effects, then the Quidkfire Pro should do any seasoned megalomaniac, James Bond ‘Uber’ villain or gamer proud.

 Pros:

• Heavy as a brick
• Great styling
• Fast Response
• Includes a Keyboard Puller
• Can change the poll rate.
• On board lighting effects are well carried out.
• Good for typing.
