Asus teased a new mechanical keyboard at computex. it was partially hidden under a black cloth and not many details were given out, but knowing Asus/ROG this is going to be pretty epic. 
It is going to have a red back light and be a full mechanical keyboard. 

Anyone looking forward to this? I know there are tons of people who will want this to go along with their builds!

Red color? bleh... I prefer the blue lighting from the K95, but I guess Black and Red are the brand colors of the RoG series.

What is with manufacturers and making EVERYTHING. ASUS makes motherboards and GPUs, now they make keyboards. Same with MSI, and Gigabyte.

I'm okay with it only because it makes it so much easier to have a cohesively themed build. Kind want Asus to do water cooling parts next  :P

corsair is understandable , they are a peripheral maker

K95 has white lighting, the old K90 has blue. I have had both, using a K90 right now.

and tablets, phones, optical drives, speakers, external HDDs, media players and random accessories.

 

Is there anything ASUS won't do? Not only that but they excel at most of those

 I'm prepared to bet it's got red switches but it does look badass...

Asus is one of the widest diversified manufacturers in the entire sector, and almost everything they've ever done has been extremely high quality. Except for their pre-built computers.

 

In comparison, Corsair has a long history of several failed and below intended quality products.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

I don't think I could ever bring myself to buy any ROG product just because "Republic of Gamers" is so tacky and dumb sounding. I don't want that written on my hardware. 

Personal Rig: i7 7700K - Asus Strix Z270H - 2x8GB GSkill RGB memory 3000Mhz - EVGA GTX1080ti SC2 - 2X Samsung 850 EVO 500GB - EVGA SuperNOVA 750G2
