The new keyboard offers mechanical switches and impresses with its size – it measures 526.5 x 170 x 49 mm and weighs 1.7 kilograms. The reason for this unusual size is that the Horus GK2000 comes with tons of features and an extra sturdy chassis.

The new gaming keyboard by ASUS features a powerful 32-bit processor inside as well as 4 MB of internal memory that is used for saving settings and gaming profiles.
