MSI has introduced the STRIKE 600 mechanical keyboard. It’s aimed at gamers, content creators, and professionals and focuses on being quiet even though it’s mechanical.
Mechanical keyboards are great, but they’re as loud as a typewriter. The keyboard uses Kailh Midnight Pro Silent Tactile switches, which are made to be quiet but still provide a nice feel when you press them. The noise level is said to be under 35dB.
A common issue with keyboards that are said to be lower in noise is that they start getting louder over time. I use a keyboard that is supposed to be exceptionally quiet, but the keys I use most often are now the sound of regular keys. However, the STRIKE 600 may not have this problem, as it’s built to last for a while.
The switches on the keyboard can last for up to 70 million keystrokes. Admittedly, that could mean they will last a long time before the keys stop responding, but that could also translate to more time with lower keystroke volume. The keyboard has an aluminum top that makes it strong and looks good. It has a matte finish and floating keycaps for a nice appearance. To make it more comfortable for long use, it has features like adjustable feet and a keycap design that fits the shape of your fingers.
The STRIKE 600 keyboard has individual RGB lights for each key, which you may customize using MSI’s Mystic Light software. This lets you change how the keyboard looks in a lot of different ways. It also has a volume wheel that you can touch to adjust and special keys for controlling media easily. To reduce noise from typing, the keyboard uses several sound-dampening features, like layered foam and a soundproofing pad. Additionally, it includes technology that allows multiple keys to be pressed at once without errors, ensuring your inputs are accurate.
The MSI Center software also gives the STRIKE 600 features common to higher-end keyboards. Owners can change the RGB lighting, remap keys, create shortcuts, and switch between three saved profiles. So far, the keyboard is only available onthe official websitefor $79.99, but it should come to other retailers soon.
