Gorgeous RGB light show, Crisp and predictable actuation, Small footprint, No software, Great price point, Brushed aluminum looks fantastic
No macro support, No onboard memory for custom settings, Louder than my Cherry MX browns
If you are bumping up to the AZIO MGK1 RGB Backlit Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, you are doing it for the lights. The MGK1 keyboards are 100% hardware based. This means no drivers to install just plug in and you are set. Pictures just don't due the lighting...

No doubt that the MGK 1 is stylishly simple, yet is able to get quite a bit out of this driverless option in mechanical keyboards. The bright red sides of this keyboard go well with many case build themes and would feel right at home in a lot of offices...
Beautiful aesthetics; Solid construction; Nononsense approach; Very affordable; Tasteful lighting effects; Full NKRO keys, Volume roller

Sleek peripherals that have the essentials covered at very affordable prices...
