Great mechanical keyboard
I really like build quality of the keyboard. The volume scroll wheel is handy, but I do the media buttons squishy for me, but those buttons don't used a lot so I can look over it. The USB pass through is great if you want to charge your phone or plug in another device. I'm using it for my wireless mouse receiver. Be aware that the attached cable for the keyboard is two-in-one. The end has USB for the keyboard and for the passthrough. I bought one with linear switches and like how the feel. Short and smooth presses. Some people don't like software GHUB, but I didn't find difficult to use and I didn't encounter any issues customizing how I wanted to. The only thing that could be a deal-breaker for some is that the secondary characters aren't lit up. I think this was a design compromise because of the low profile switches so the LEDs had to be placed off center.

best keyboard i've ever owned!
I was worried about spending so much on a keyboard and I already have a gaming rgb keyboard. I was looking for something slim and with the linear switches and wow, this keyboard is the best keyboard I have ever owned. I am glad Best Buy gave me a coupon for my Birthday and I bought this and I am so glad I did. The build and quality and the Gsync is amazing for me set up.
