About Rog Rx Red Switch – Linear and Swift, ROG RX Red Optical Mechanical Switches are the first to be developed by ROG. Extensive research, testing and fine-tuning have resulted in switches with a 1.5mm actuation point for lightning-fast inputs. An initial force of 40g prevents accidental keystrokes, and goes all the way up to 55g for perfect rebound feedback. ROG RX Red switches provide a smooth and linear feel to give you near instantaneous response the moment you strike the key.
Built To Last – ROG Strix Scope RX offers industry-leading IP56 dust and water resistance, ensuring it’s well-protected from spills and dust. It also has a durable aluminum alloy top plate that provides structural rigidity to give you long-lasting and reliable performance.
Instant Privacy – Marked with an iconic cloaked-figure keycap, the Stealth key instantly hides all apps and mutes all audio, assuring instant privacy, whenever you need it. A simple tap engages it, and another tap brings apps and audio back up, as they were.
Ready For Work Or Play – The Quick-Toggle Switch prepares ROG Strix Scope RX for gaming or the daily grind, toggling the top row between Media or Function (Fn) key input – so it’s easy to switch modes for work or play. The keyboard is topped with an aluminum faceplate for everyday resilience, and finished with a striking slash aesthetic for a little touch of style.
Aura Sync – Vibrant per-key backlighting illuminates Strix Scope from top to bottom and edge to edge. Powered by Aura Sync, the entire color spectrum and a range of dynamic lighting effects are at your command for you to create a keyboard that’s uniquely yours. The lighting is easily synced with the extensive Aura ecosystem to create a gaming environment that really shines.
