Hardware Features
ROG RX Optical Mechanical Switches
ROG RX Red optical mechanical switches have a 1.5mm actuation point for fast inputs. An initial force of 40 gf prevents accidental keystrokes and goes all the way up to 55 gf for rebound feedback. ROG RX Red switches provide a smooth and linear feel to give you near instantaneous response the moment you strike the key.
PBT Doubleshot Keycaps
ROG PBT doubleshot keycaps provide a premium feel, as well as offer long-lasting durability. The double-shot molding process results in translucent keycaps that feature seamless ROG script for a unique look, while offering consistent lighting.
Play At the Speed of Light
Take on all comers with the ROG Strix Scope RX. Utilizing ROG RX Red mechanical switches, this keyboard delivers 1000 Hz ultrapolling and a 1 ms response time.
Crafted For FPS Gamers
After studying the playing style of FPS gamers, the ROG team crafted the Xccurate Design: A control key that's twice as wide as usual, ensuring you never miss a crouch or macro in the heat of battle.
Built to Last
ROG Strix Scope RX offers IP57 dust and water resistance, ensuring it's well-protected from spills and dust. It also features a durable aluminum alloy top plate that provides structural rigidity to give you long-lasting and reliable performance.
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.
