You know you’re having a great Holiday season if you have just received or put together a fantastic new gaming rig. However, you can’t get the best out of all that power without a great keyboard and mouse combination. What makes the so great can be bewildering for many.
Do you need a mechanical keyboard? What about the Hall Effect? Rapid trigger? Not to worry, I'm here to help you pick out the keyboard that is right for your needs. Razer Huntsman V3 Pro is the best overall, if you can afford it The Hunstman makes some bold claims right up front, promising Pro-level performance, along with a raft of features aimed at gaming enthusiasts. Thankfully, for the most part, the has the capabilities to back up its boasting.
The version I use is the Tenkeyless, though it also comes in Full-Size and Mini form factors. The brushed aluminum top case gives a feeling of solidity, while features such as the dedicated Macro buttons, Media dial, and Rapid Trigger provide a great all-around experience. Rapid Trigger might be controversial in pro gaming spaces, but the ability to minutely adjust actuation points is a big deal for competitive gaming fans.
In addition, the Hunstman V3 Pro is quieter than several of its Razer predecessors, making it a more practical choice for general productivity tasks. If only it were a bit cheaper. The Corsair K65 Plus Wireless is perfect if you want a tenkeyless The looks fairly unassuming with its subdued black and grey color palette, though it hides a lot.
