Roccat will produce a mechanical keyboard
Posted: 11 Jan 2013, 18:56
Hi everyone,
while browsing I just discovered, that the gaming manufacturer I probably like the most (or which I dislike the least) is going to produce a mechanical keyboard.
Roccat is a rather young German gaming equipment manufacturer, and up to now they only carried rubberdomes, but now they've announced the Roccat MK Ryos. It will be available in three variants, all of them hardwareprogrammable with an ARM Cortex processor.
The first variant is the ordinary one, which will have no backlighting.
The second variant is the "Ryos MK Glow", which will have backlighting you can control for every individual key.
The third variant is the "Ryos MK Pro" will have backlighting and an additional ARM processor.
All variants seem to be going to be offered in MX Black, Red, Brown and Blue.
This keyboard is hardware programmable, you can put Macros on every key, and as far as I know the way Roccat implements the programmability, you can use the three thumb buttons as modifiers if you want to.
To be honest, this might be the first gaming mechanical keyboard I might want to buy. Price is apparently going to be 99€-149€.
