HyperX Origins 2 65 65% Mechanical Wired Gaming Keyboard RGB

ABOUT THE PRODUCT
The HyperX Origins 2 65 is a wired mechanical gaming keyboard built around a fully customisable 65% layout. It communicates input to your PC at up to 8000 times per second and ships with HyperX Linear Red switches for a smooth, consistent keypress with no tactile bump or click. Its defining feature is genuine modularity: hot-swap sockets let you change switches and keycaps without soldering, and the drop-in housing can be swapped to restyle the board, so you can rework the feel and look without buying a new keyboard. An O-ring mount and polycarbonate plate absorb vibration to reduce reverb, while flip-down feet let you set your preferred typing angle. It suits gamers who want a compact, desk-saving board and enthusiasts who want to tune switches, keycaps and sound over time.

KEY FEATURES
Hot-Swappable: 5-pin hot-swap sockets let you change switches and keycaps at any time with no soldering, compatible with most 5-pin or 3-pin mechanical switches.
Linear Switches: HyperX Linear Red switches deliver a smooth, bump-free keystroke rated for up to 80 million keystrokes.
Rapid Polling: Up to 8000Hz polling reports your input to the PC up to 8000 times per second.
Reduced Reverb: A silicon O-ring mount and polycarbonate plate absorb vibration for a deeper sound and less reverb per keystroke.
Full Anti-Ghosting: 100% anti-ghosting with N-key rollover registers every simultaneous keypress accurately.
