ASUSROG Strix Scope RX Gaming Mechanical Keyboard, Red Optical Switches, USB 2.0 Passthrough, 2X Wider Ctrl Key, Aura Sync, Armoury Crate RGB Lighting, Black

This is a good keyboard. It's responsive and the keys feel good without being super loud and "clicky" the way many other gaming keyboards are. I've been using this daily for the past 4 years and haven't had any issues so far with performance or keys breaking etc.The only thing I find pretty annoying about this keyboard is that only the F1-F4 keys seem to work with most games. All of the others (F5-F12) have alternate uses as the "main" function, so none of them are recognized by default in any games. For some games, I was able to workaround this through aliases and some other things, but for others I simply have never been able to get them to work at all so you lose a lot of functionality/flexibility. This is a somewhat minor thing, and doesn't come into play too often, but when it does it can be a little bit annoying.

Size: This keyboard is extremely great to use when gaming, the size relatively normal to most yet compact in a way.Ease of use: Feels very natural to type with ease and quick responses from light touch help in games where you need quick reflexes.Price: The price is also fairly reasonable given the countless features that come with it.Would recommend buying more computer accessories like this, especially with the aura sync feature if you like the aesthetic of RGB lights.

The media could not be loaded. Asus nunca defrauda con sus productos, se nota la calidad con la que está hecho.Lo único que me preocupa es que no encuentro repuestos de los switchs por si me llega a suceder algún accidente cuando le de mantenimiento

I bought this keyboard for my husband and he loved it. Unfortunately, I had to return it because he had character keys he wanted to replace the existing key with and he was unable to fit them.

I am a YouTube live gamer and I also blog a lot.This keyboard is like a dream when typing on it and it is also very bright which you can turn it down if desired.I had it a little over a month and one of the key covers was defective and came loose on the switch.I was resting my pinky on the key and it was suddenly floating completely unattached.I called their support number and the support people were very nice and willing, but not very helpful.I just wanted to order a new key switch and the key cover for Cap Lock. I was willing to pay for them myself also.They told me I could not order the switches and covers separately.The key covers have 4 thin pegs that are inserted into the switch. The pegs are made of brittle plastic and during the insertion process they can develop a fault. When covers sheer off the pegs are left in the switch leaving both the switch itself and cover useless. With a bit of finesse the switch can be pulled out. Having this happen on the caps lock key was not really that much of an issue.Maybe I just got a bad one. But, them not selling key covers and switches separately became an issue for me.They reached out 5 or 6 times trying to help me resolve my request for parts, eventually saying I had to send the unit in.Going without a keyboard for an extended period of time was not an option.I would almost say that the feel and touch quality of this keyboard is worth the chance of a key breaking and having to send it in.But, I wondered how would they repair it if no keys were available? This did not add up in my mind.Luckily, it was just slightly beyond warrantee and Amazon gave me a refund. I actually miss typing on this keyboard. The keys do not budge even a slight tiny bit, they are extremely rock solid in place. No wobble at all whatsoever.The flaw is with the company and their inability to furnish replacement keys. This is a serious rub.Secondly, I use one keyboard on two CPUs so I have a switcher box and the software used to control the lights does not work when plugged to my switcher. Only the hot keys can be used to control the lights, no custom light control. My other major brand LED keyboard of the same caliber works with my switcher.This was a rub also.I returned it to Amazon... I miss this keyboard, the brightness and the solid key structure bad enough I have considered buying one to use as a spare. ASUS needs to work on key replacement parts and perhaps I could learn to live with it not working with the custom light apps they offer. The plastic pegs in the key caps are brittle and need a less brittle plastic hardener formulation.I doubt there there is any keyboard on the market with keys as solid as these ones. Your fingers learn to love the touch and feel.Too bad their key and switch parts service is, "out of order"... If you buy this, keep a spare old keyboard on hand and don't throw away the box it comes in...Review for:ASUS Mechanical Gaming Keyboard - ROG Strix Scope RX | Red Optical Mechanical SwitchesIf the price goes down to $60 I will probably take a chance and order another one. Having a spare would probably solve some issues. I sent the spare back to Amazon. I would have been fine if they sent me some used switches... I assume they have a room full of returns. ASUS kind of dropped the ball on this one.

high quality keyboard, not loud at all, good custimizable lights, good feel

I decided it was time to replace my 2 Razer Blackwidow Ultimate Stealth 2014 editions when they both started double keying letters when typing. Razer was no help.These keyboards work well. Backlighting that can be customized with an app that I think has become standard with ASUS products.It did take a little adjustment to the new keyboards though due to the slightly smaller size that what I have been using for years. I think the Razers just had bigger keys, not by much and one may not think it's a big deal, but it does take time to "retrain" the muscle memory to a different keyboard.Overall though, I feel like these should last as long, if not longer than the Razers. I bought 2 and replaced both my old ones at the same time. For the price, and the manufacturer, they are a great replacement for what I was using.

Easy to use, customizable leds. Very good.
