FOR THE ULTIMATE EXPERIENCE
ROG Chakram Core is engineered for an exceptional gaming experience, with features that elevate it beyond the competition.
Shorter travel means quicker clicks, which is why ROG engineers equipped ROG Chakram Core with pivoted buttons. The mechanism utilizes springs and metal hinges to balance the keys and minimize the distance between the buttons and switches. The upshot is minimal travel and rapid return, ensuring superb speed, responsiveness and consistency with every click.
