HK GAMING GK61 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard 60 Percent | 61 RGB Rainbow LED Backlit Programmable Keys | USB Wired | For Mac and Windows PC | Hotswap Gateron Optical Yellow Switches | White


GK61 is a standard-sized 60% keyboard featuring RGB backlighting, USB-C wired connection, and optical switches . The USB-C cable is detachable for convenience of portability.

Optical switches are much more durable than conventional mechanical keyboard switches and are rated for 100 million keystrokes.

They have a high actuation point of 1.5mm for fast response. Light Strike optical switches utilize a horizontal infrared beam which is transmitted across the width of the inner keyswitch.

The infrared beam is normally blocked from reaching a sensor across from it by the stem. Once a switch is pressed, the switch stem no longer blocks the infrared beam and the beam is detected by the sensor, which activates the switch.

Due to the optical mechanism, an optical switch has an extremely fast response time of 0.2ms, which means faster reactions in those times where timing is critical, such as when gaming.

    Nous tions la recherche d’un clavier pour que mon garon puisse jouer en ligne. N’tant pas un joueur professionnel ou mettant plusieurs heures par jour, nous voulions un clavier ayant un rapport qualit-caractristiques/prix intressant.
    Mon garon adore le clavier, il apprcie le fait de pouvoir illuminer de faon indpendante les touches et il pourra remplacer le mcanisme des touches pour les adapter ses prfrences plus tard.

    Klar sie ist teuer, aber vertrau mir hol dir lieber so eine teure Tastatur, als sonst immer nach einem halben Jahr eine andere fr 30 zu holen. Und fr die F Tasten muss man die Fn Taste gedrckt halten.

    Keyboard was amazing! Was trying out a pre-built to see how it was (after not using a pre-built for a good few years), and the gk61 was surprisingly good! 100% reccomened to anyone who wants to try out pre-builds or just anyone who is looking for the best keyboard apart from a few, and the price for this keyboard i’d personally say is way under!

    I own 5 of these keyboards number 6 on the way now, and I have to say, this keyboard is an amazing budget friendly keyboard and great if you want to start out with keyboard modding, it’s hot swappable so no pesky soldering and its compact, what more could you want?

    Perfect for a 60%! Only downside being the volume controls. They’re kind of confusing, and you need to hold the Function key. Other than that, it’s amazing!

    I liked it and it felt very good, but when trying to be on calls it could be annoying or if I was playing games where you hit the keys alot, it could be very loud and it would be hard to hear the game.

    This keyboard exceeded expectations. Quite sensitive and good for gaming. The spacebar could be a bit better. Seems a bit clunky, unstable, or something…just a very different feel. I can’t say that it hasn’t done it’s job…just doesn’t have the same feel and confidence. All in all, a good purchase.
