The CORSAIR VANGUARD 96 Wireless is a mechanical gaming keyboard designed for ambitious gamers and demanding users. Featuring 8 kHz hyper-polling, an integrated LCD display, and versatile customisation options, it offers fast and flexible control for both gaming and productive applications.
- 8,000 Hz polling – lightning-fast response times for smooth gameplay
- LCD display – direct control and personalisation
- Hot-swap switches – easy adjustment of typing feel
- SLIPSTREAM Wireless – stable connection without cables
- Elgato integration – quick control of streams
Maximum control with display and software
The integrated LCD display gives you quick access to functions, settings, and content directly on the keyboard. Combined with the CORSAIR Web Hub, you can easily customise lighting, macros, and key assignments. The Elgato Stream Deck integration further expands control for streaming and content creation.
Fast response for competitive gaming
With up to an 8,000 Hz polling rate, the keyboard reacts exceptionally quickly to inputs. The mechanical CORSAIR MLX Plasma switches are pre-lubricated and designed for high precision. Thanks to full NKRO and anti-ghosting, multiple simultaneous inputs are reliably recognised.
Flexible design for everyday use and setup
The keyboard can be used wirelessly via SLIPSTREAM or Bluetooth, as well as with a USB cable. A magnetic wrist rest with memory foam provides additional comfort during long sessions. Thanks to the compact 96% layout, you have all the essential keys in a space-saving design.
