Know before you buy
The keyboard features dedicated keys that function exactly like a standalone Stream Deck, allowing you to trigger macros, launch apps, or control media directly from your board. You can customize these keys using the same Elgato software ecosystem to manage your stream, control smart home devices, or execute complex in-game commands.
For most casual players, the difference between standard polling rates and 8,000Hz is negligible. However, if you play competitive shooters where millisecond reaction times matter, the hyper-polling ensures your inputs are registered with the lowest possible latency.
Yes, you will need to use Corsair's software suite to manage your key remapping, macros, and RGB lighting profiles. The interface is browser-based and designed to be intuitive, allowing you to save your settings directly to the keyboard's onboard memory.
FlashTap SOCD (Simultaneous Opposing Cardinal Directions) is a feature that helps with precise movement in games, particularly when you need to switch directions instantly. It essentially prioritizes the most recent input when you press two opposing keys at once, preventing the character from stopping or stuttering.
No, this is a wired keyboard that connects via a USB-C interface. This ensures a consistent, lag-free connection and eliminates the need to worry about battery life or charging.
Absolutely. Because the integrated controls function as a Stream Deck, you have full access to the Elgato Marketplace. You can download and install plugins to extend the keyboard's functionality for specific apps, streaming tools, or system monitoring.
