Built for players who need more room to manoeuvre

Tired of your mouse hitting the numpad mid-swipe? The Corsair K55 CORE TKL RGB Gaming Keyboard cuts the numpad entirely, giving you a tenkeyless layout that frees up valuable desk space for wide, low-sensitivity mouse movements. It’s a smart choice for the competitive South African gamer who wants a compact, no-nonsense footprint without sacrificing a full set of gaming-ready keys. Add in a spill-resistant build, and you’ve got a keyboard designed to handle the intensity of long gaming sessions without missing a beat.

Precision that keeps pace with your reflexes

Every millisecond counts in competitive play, and the K55 CORE TKL is engineered to keep up. A 1000Hz polling rate ensures your keystrokes register almost instantly, while 12-key rollover (12KRO) means multiple simultaneous key presses come through accurately even in the heat of a firefight. Paired with responsive rubber dome switches, this gaming keyboard delivers the consistent, reliable input you need to secure the win.

Illuminate your setup, your way

Your gaming rig should look as good as it performs. Vivid RGB backlighting lets you bring colour and personality to your desk, fully customisable through Corsair iCUE software. Beyond lighting, iCUE gives you control over onboard memory profiles, so your preferred setup travels with you rather than being tied to a single PC.

Built to go the distance

Dedicated hotkeys for media, volume, and Windows key lock put essential controls at your fingertips without breaking your flow, while a tangle-free rubber cable and USB 2.0 Type-A connection keep your setup tidy and dependable. Backed by a 2-year warranty, the K55 CORE TKL RGB Gaming Keyboard is a wired gaming keyboard built to handle whatever your next session throws at it.
