Also, the SteelSeries is TKL-sized and has dedicated media keys, including a wheel for volume control. Instead, insert a flash drive, wireless mouse/headset transmitter, phone, or any USB device directly into the keyboard. I also wanted dedicated media controls, as sometimes when in-game I don’t want to have to go all the way back into Windows to pause my song or reduce the volume.

The MX Speeds are linear, have a much shorter pre-travel distance, and don't make a lot of typing noise. The Series 5000 metal frame is manufactured for a lifetime of unbreakable durability and sturdiness, making it the perfect centrepiece of any high-end setup.Use a soft cloth and rubbing alcohol to gently clean the surface of your mouse, taking care not to damage the coating.

When comparing to primarily typing enthusiast keyboards, this model doesn't offer any options to compete, or even modability, but what it lacks in that space it makes up for in quality of life for the casual computer user and gamers (media keys, notifications, flatter slope design). The Apex 7 TKL is a mechanical keyboard available in three types of switches, while the Apex 3 TKL has rubber dome switches, which feel heavier. Engine allows you to remap keys, change lighting effects, and program the OLED display on the Apex 7.It is easy to pull on and off, and does not come off with mild movements of the board when playing games or typing. The Apex 7’s RGB lighting is in a bulb near the top of the switch, which allows more light to shine through and give the keyboard more vibrance. Avoid tabbing out of what you're doing, and instead, let your keyboard show you the important details. The under-key lights look pleasant, the body is rock-solid, and the small OLED display has actual utility and wow factor in equal measure. It also has excellent companion software that allows you to reprogram keys, set macros, and adjust lighting settings.
