The HyperX Alloy Origins PBT is a compact, sturdy keyboard featuring custom HyperX mechanical switches designed to give gamers the best blend of style, performance, and reliability. This version ups durability by adding pre-installed PBT keycaps with side-printing. HyperX’s mechanical key switches are built with exposed LEDs so more of the light output is visible, providing more brilliant, stunning lighting. They’re also tuned with an actuation force and travel distance that is elegantly balanced for responsiveness and accuracy. Alloy Origins is built with a full aluminum body, so it stays rigid and stable, and also features keyboard feet for three different tilt angles. It’s a full-sized keyboard layout with a compact design so it won’t crowd out your desktop, and it also features a detachable USB-C cable for portability. Customize your lighting, craft macros, and adjust Game Mode with powerful, easy-to-use HyperX NGENUITY Software.
