It’s rare to find a keyboard that lights up for a good reason, but Corsair’s Stream Deck collaboration marries lighting to controls.
Gamers and content creators often have something in common: their desks are probably brighter than most, with flashy keyboards, big lights, and if they happen to be one and the same, possibly some special controllers to trigger things happening on screen.
That’s kind of how things work if you game and stream and share your happenings with people over social and video. It’s often separate controllers, with a mechanical keyboard for games, a deck controller for handling video and shortcuts, making for a bit of a messy desk.
We’re not sure if anyone has ever thought to marry the whole thing, but PC hardware maker Corsair is certainly using CES 2026 to show off that idea, announcing a unique keyboard called the Galleon 100 SD.
Very much a combination of gadgets, the Galleon 100 brings together a light-up mechanical keyboard and an official Elgato Stream Deck, replacing the numeric keypad often found on the very right of a full-size keyboard with the customisable LCDs of the Stream Deck.
The system includes a 5 inch colour LCD where information can run, while the keys of the Stream Deck provide 12 keys, each with their own tiny screen, all modifiable by the Stream Deck app and sitting in the background of the computer. There are even two dials at the top of the deck to provide more functionality.
For gamers, it means the buttons can be in-game actions, and for streamers and content creators, it means those keys can trigger tracks, peripherals, and more. You can even just gaze at them and do nothing, having them report system temperatures and the like when nothing else is happening.
The keyboard itself is high speed and aims to provide a practically instant response, while the mechanical switches are tuned to be quick, sitting on an aluminium frame.
Corsair’s Galleon 100 SD is just one of the gadgets being shown at CES by the hardware maker, with new gaming mice, a mouse pad, and another keyboard with magnetic switches, though like most of what CES shows, nothing has prices or availability just yet.
We imagine Australia will be on the cards for most of this, but you’ll just have to wait, and based on the hardware in the Galleon, might want to start saving, too.
