  • Manufacturer facts for the exact models shown. Not a quality rating or a test result.
  • “Different” means the known values differ, not that one is better.
  • Missing or conflicting evidence is marked and never counts as a difference. Source chips hold each fact’s sources and conditions.

What it brings and what to check

Corsair K70 CORE TKL WIRELESS

What it brings

What to check

HyperX Alloy Origins 65

What it brings

  • HyperX says the 65% layout (315.06 × 105.5 mm) frees more mouse space than a tenkeyless board while keeping dedicated arrow, Page Up/Down, Home and Delete keys.
    Manufacturer source
  • Double-shot PBT keycaps with side-printed secondary functions, three onboard profiles, a 1000 Hz report rate and a detachable USB-C cable.
    Manufacturer source

What to check

  • There is no number pad or separate function-key row; F1–F12 and other secondary functions are printed on the keycap sides.
    Manufacturer source
  • It is wired only, HyperX lists only Windows versions as supported operating systems, and its switch table calls the tactile Aqua switch 'Linear', an inconsistency it has not resolved.

Manufacturer specification · From Corsair's UK Package Contents list, which is truncated after a further item beginning 'Sa' that is not recorded here; the manual's component list confirms the USB Type-C to Type-A cable, wireless adapter and magnetic cushioned palm rest. The Package Contents call the cable 'Braided', while the Tech Specs and manual describe it as tangle-free rubber, so no cable material is recorded.
