Know before you buy
Yes, you will need to install the Elgato Stream Deck software to configure the LCD keys, dials, and screen. This software is where you manage your plugins, macros, and custom profiles.
Absolutely. The keyboard features hotswap support, allowing you to pull out the stock MLX Pulse Linear switches and install any compatible mechanical switch without needing to solder.
While it is built for high-performance gaming, the full-size layout, dedicated media keys, and customizable LCD controls make it highly effective for productivity workflows, such as video editing or managing complex software suites.
No, the GALLEON 100 SD does not feature RGB backlighting. It is designed with a focus on premium build quality, acoustics, and integrated control features rather than visual lighting effects.
Gasket mounting suspends the keyboard's plate within the case, which provides a softer, more flexible typing feel compared to traditional tray-mounted keyboards. Combined with the 6-layer sound dampening, this results in a quieter, more refined sound profile.
An 8,000Hz polling rate means the keyboard reports its status to your PC 8,000 times per second. This reduces input latency to a fraction of a millisecond, ensuring your keystrokes are registered as quickly as possible in competitive gaming scenarios.
