Steelkeys 6G gaming keyboard

August 9th, 2007

The gaming keyboard market is pretty lonely at the top, with just Razer and Logitech sitting pretty at the top. Their party is about to be crashed though, thanks to the introduction of the Steelkeys 6G. This gaming keyboard was specifically built to withstand rough play and comes in a much more durable design when compared to a standard keyboard. It comes integrated with an onboard chip that is capable of deciphering multiple, simultaneous keystrokes that makes it all the more responsive. While it does not come with a fancy LCD display as found on the Logitech G15, the 6G is really a viable alternative with its heavier form factor that prevents the keyboard from slipping away during more frenzied gaming moments. It retails for $114 and ought to be considered carefully before a purchase is made since other competitors offer more features for the same price.
