Tom's Hardware - 4/5

Tom's Hardware also highlights how beautiful the RGB on the Vulcan II Max as well, while also giving a fair assement on its performance.

"The Roccat Vulcan II Max is gorgeous. If you’re looking for a keyboard that will give you a bright, beautiful light show, this is it — everything about this keyboard is pretty much designed to dazzle you with lights, from the switch-exposing keycaps to the dual-LED switches to the included silicone wrist rest. In addition to being mesmerizing to look at, the Vulcan II Max also offers up decent performance — it may not be the best keyboard for typing (but no linear optical switch is); and it’s an excellent gaming keyboard thanks to its speedy optical actuation and built-in secondary functions."

Co-Optimus

Co-Optimus give a short and sweet review, praising its great performance and easy to use software.

"The bottom line on the Vulcan II Max is this. It's an incredibly solid keyboard with great performance and features and a ridiculous amount of LED lighting. The SWARM software is easy to use and fairly light weight - with 4 ROCCAT devices it's using 46MB of memory. As with any of these devices if you are already in the company's ecosystem and in the market for the latest and greatest - you can't go wrong with this keyboard."
