The last blows of CES 2018 are being felt and one of the latest products shown is a keyboard developed by ASUS. The Taiwanese company has presented these days in Las Vegas the ASUS RoG STRIX Flare keyboard, a mechanical keyboard, logically, specially designed for gaming with Cherry MX RGB mechanical switches, which offer RGB lighting independently on each of the keys. This keyboard will come with different types of mechanical switches, being able to find them type RED, BLUE, BROWN and other models, which will depend on the requirements of the users in each case.

The STRIX Flare not only offers independent RGB LED lighting, the keyboard outline also features an RGB LED illuminated edge, which illuminates the surface. The lighting of the different keys is fully compatible with Aura SYNC RGB lighting technology, something that will allow us to illuminate the keyboard according to the colors and effects that we have programmed for the motherboard and other peripherals, as long as they are compatible with this technology. of lighting. We have on the right side a piece of methacrylate with the logo that lights up and that is interchangeable, allowing us to create our personalized model.

ASUS has redistributed the multimedia keys, which are usually located in the upper right area, but in this case they are in the upper left area, something that attracts a lot of attention. The function of raising and lowering the volume is made by a large wheel, which is next to other multimedia keys. This has been distributed like this, so that at no time we release the mouse. The WASD keys are also close to the volume and multimedia control, so the travel for adjustments is less than if it is on the left. Disabling the Windows key function has not been implemented, which they seem to have forgotten about.
