Cherry showcases the MX Board 9.0, a new mechanical keyboard that features the company's Cherry MX RGB switches. The peripheral features a 16.7 million color LED backlight, macro key functionality, a Windows key lock, and a freakishly big jog dial that can be used to control brightness, light effects and audio volume.

The MX Board 9.0. A gaming keyboard for the most demanding standards. Includes the legendary CHERRY MX RGB Switches, control dials, 15 freely assignable macro buttons (perfect for MMORPGs), and LED illumination in 16.7 million RGB colors. All of these and more exciting features add to its professional gaming character.

The keyboard measures 500mm x 220mm x 65mm and has individual tilt adjustment via continuously variable screw-type feet. Three versions will be available; with RGB Blue, RGB Brown or RGB Red switches.

Cherry didn't share details about pricing or availability, but if I had to guess it's probably close to the $200 mark.
