Depends on what you are looking for. This coming from someone with a Hunstman elite, a couple ducky's, a couple of customs, and even a Durgod Venus. Pro's. Super smooth switch. Probably the lightest smoothest press I have had. High activation. For games this is great. Difference minimal. But activating a switch quicker is an advantage. If you are stacking low latency, its the next step. Optical switches. No rebound and lightseed signals to the controller. RGB. You have to use their software but the RGB is great and highly configurable. Programability. Again have to use the software, some of it requires the software running. But has unmatched flexibility in capability. Cons. Noisey. There are a lot of contributors for this. But lets just call a it what it is. Perhaps the noisest linear switch and keyboard combo you could have. The high activation and light spring and smoothness. Its a bad typing setup, you will have so many typing errors. Synapse. Its bloated. Hella bloated. It is required for configuration and lots of its functionality is tied into it running. Like other optical keyboards all the work is in the board. Meaning if something stops working its probably unrepairable. A board can go bad anywhere but now its a single source of failure. For an expensive gaming keyboard. It's construction is only so-so. Its a a hollow plastic case, rigid, but plastic with a light alu integrated top plate. Keeps it light, but makes it feel hollow and contributes to the sound. Answer from Amaakaams on reddit.com
