HyperX Alloy Origins 65 Review - Compact Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

The HyperX Alloy Origins 65 is a compact, mechanical keyboard designed for gaming. It's part of HyperX's Alloy Origins series, and it has a 65% form factor with dedicated arrow keys and a few parts of the navigational cluster tucked into the right side of the keyboard. It offers very low latency, N-key rollover, and macro-programmability on all keys. It's only available with HyperX's proprietary linear Red switches, which have a slightly longer pre-travel distance, but a very low actuation force, so keypresses feel very smooth and responsive. While these linear switches are great for gaming, many other comparable keyboards have a range of different switch types available or a hot-swappable PCB, so you can use whatever switches you like.

This keyboard also comes with HyperX Aqua (tactile) switches. It might not be available everywhere currently, but I already found one in Europe.

[@superduperbob]

Witch one is better?

[@jyn99]

@@inSaNe_44red switches for a more snappy, fast, and smooth feel and aqua switches are for typing

[@w3shed10]

​@@inSaNe_44 i think red is better for gaming and typing but aqua is better for typing sounds
