Top Notch Keyboard!
I Absolutely would most definitely recommend this to anyone who's looking for a budget keyboard. I've had this for some time now and it still has no issues. The HyperX Software is super easy to use with this allowing you to create preset profiles to swap too while you're gaming. The keys are also very nice sounding which makes me love it even more.

Love it!
After researching so many different 60% keyboards, I ultimately decided to choose this one. I'm so in love with this keyboard!!! The sound is great, it's super responsive and neatly compact. It was really easy to figure out all the switches too.

Great board but mine has a slight defect
This is a great 60% keyboard. It’s got a really good weight to it which makes it feel quality. The materials are also very nice. The lighting effects available through the software are okay; not nearly the amount of options as my previous Corsair keyboard but it’s livable. The reason this isn’t a five star review is because the cool topographic space bar keycap this comes with has a slight defect in the form of a raised bump. Overall great keyboard for $100.
