Asus New Keyboard?!

[rwaalph]

I saw the new keyboard lineup of asus , the Rog Claymore Core that have cherry mx switches, do you think this can compete with logitech, corsairs or razers flagship keyboards there has only been few reviews of this

Like other the Asus ROG keyboards the price is a bit high, so I'd say no. They are priced just over 10% (before tax) more than the Corsair K65 RGB, but with no clear advantage over it? Pitching themselves price-wise over a popular, and now well established keyboard manufacturer, is a mistake IMO. Sure Asus fanboys will buy it, but they won't pick up many sales from the brand agnostics.

 

Neither Logitech nor Razer use Cherry switches so there is personal preference there as to their feel. Though Razers are cheap for mechanical boards and Logitech's Romer-G switches illuminate the whole key without dark spots, something the K70 RGB suffers from.
