Is Corsair's MAKR 75 worth it?

Prawn here with a look at the Corsair MAKR 75 DIY keyboard. This is Corsair's entry into the DIY keyboard market, designed to allow you to build and customise your own keyboard and tweak it in various ways. The MAKR 75 has various different highlights to it including a selection of mechanical switches available. It boasts an aluminium frame, gasket mount, choice of polycarbonate or FR4 switch plate, 8 layers of sound dampening foam and upgrades that include an LCD screen, wireless module and more. There are some oddities to it though, it's using traditional mechanical switches rather than Hall Effect switches that other brands are using. So there's no adjustable actuation or rapid trigger. The keyboard does have SOCD (Flash Tap) for A and D keys meaning easier jiggle peaking or side strafing but otherwise nothing much is adjustable on a per key basis (apart from RGB obviously).
