QPAD Introduces MK-80 Mechanical Keyboard
QPAD rolled out its new MK-80 Mechanical keyboard targeted at pro gamers and enthusiasts. The keyboard has individual LEDs for each key and switches plated with gold/silver alloy.
Unlike regular keyboards that function through rubber domes, forcing you to press each key all the way down in order for the stroke to register, the MK-80 sports mechanical switches with improved accuracy and instant response.
Each key is built to last 50 million strokes, and the QPAD MK-80 mechanical key technology provides distinct feedback and puts you in control. The travel distance of the keys is set to 4mm with an actuation point at 2mm.
QPAD strongly recommends that their board be connected via PS/2 when possible. This will enable unlimited amount of simultaneous key presses, and since USB connected keyboards force your CPU to take time polling the strokes, it will also allow your computer to focus on what you want it to: running your game as fast as possible.
The QPAD MK-80 comes with a two-port high-speed USB hub, 3.5-mm headphone/microphone jacks and a detachable wrist pad. Four different backlight levels allow you to find the right key under any lighting conditions. Other functions include full N-key rollover with PS/2 or 6-key rollover with USB, gold plated connectors for reduced latency and media keys. The board also supports full anti-ghosting with an additional PS/2 plug.
QPAD will present the MK-80 at Norway's biggest gaming convention The Gathering, held in Hamar, Norway. The keyboard is to go on sale in May.
