I've been waiting for this keyboard! HyperX Alloy Origins 65 review

and again the smaller the keyboard the more expensive , never got this , its like selling shoes to females........

What I like about keyboards by big box guys are the secondary legends.. if someone would make a classic tasteful non gamer keyboard in this size or even tkl that would be great. Vortex pok3r and core has lots of the functions but want to have more options.

Im 1 year late but are the switches hot swappable? 😅

should i buy the pudding keycaps for this?

I don't know why these ugly old fashioned keyboards are very popular among gamers. I enjoy and love chiclet style keyboards Sony was the first company to bring out so I have no idea why 1980s looking keyboards are highly chosen over newer flat key style keyboards.

Where do u find this aqua tactical

Big no, need F keys in games I play

how do i press the f keys'

Among the TKL, 60, & 65 versions (each with red-linear switches); the 65 feels the most premium; the 60 the least-premium (has the most washy/wobbly keystrokes). The 65's keystrokes have the tightest-feeling tolerance (least washy/wobbly), and feels lubed. It also has the best keycaps (more texturized & with thinner/sharper fonts). The TKL's keycaps turn shiny faster (from wear) and have the thickest fonts. Lastly, although the 65 sits at the same height as the 60, somehow the typing angle/action is more comfortable on the 65. Only thing missing on the 65 is the Right-Control key (but there are multiple workarounds for that via Ngenuity software). Although they appear roughly equal in quality, the 65 is the most premium of all the HyperX keyboards thus far. All that said, I think the Huntsman (with red-linear switches) have yet slightly more premium feeling keystrokes; (but the ones with purple-switches sound/feel outright cheap).

BUT this is a soldered board and those switches are without lubing so...

Just got it for 60$ at bestbuy looking forward to changing from controller to m&k

He said it was 100$ but I got mine for 70$ pretty good deal

Question do they sell this with their cherry mx switches

I really like this keyboard….I only came here because I didnt know what the gaming mode did but anyways its a great keyboard feels like an apple quality product honestly and satisfying sound from the keys

How do I turn it on do I have to plug it into something?

Typing on the TKL version, have to say I'm immensely pleased. Build quality is top notch, just oozes with a premium look and feel. I specifically chose this over the Huntsman for the weight and my preference for an aluminum back board.

How do you remove the space bar

its not good at all for 100$ there are much better keyboards for even cheaper and they have better sound

Is it hot swappable ?

Just ordered this for 60$, hopefully worth it. My old Logitech G512 started having double clicks on 3-4 buttons and the enter button is a 50/50 if it will register at all when clicked. And it was barely like 3yo... This one looks pretty slick though, just hope that the missing keys won't really affect me that much

can you toggle the fn key?

I bought the alloy origins core TKL and am loving it,specially cuz of the switches(aqua) silent yet i feel the press

I bought this KB on your recommendation and I Love it. I had the Corsair K65 Mini and it was fine but for the same price felt cheap and hollow (it is on both accounts). So this was a great replacement .

I purposely was looking for a review with aqua switches, so thank you!

Only thing I dont like about the keyboard is the cyan color of the switch housing, sort of gets in the way of the rgb

can you use this keyboard for mac?

I didn't like the red keycaps but I didn't know that it can also come with blue keycaps. Still prefer the topo spacebar that comes with the 60 though.

I can get it bcuz it’s 50 dollars after it’s already 69.99 and using a code it’s 54 dollars. But my parents won’t lemme get it 😭😭 I have the money too

I have been hounding the poor Twitter admin of Hyperx by constantly asking when the aquas were releasing on this board because at launch it was only the reds. FINALLY ordered with aquas 😊

I can't use a keyboard with a small "enter"-key.

that gap just looks off

I don't think I'll ever return to gaming boards after getting neck deep into customs, but I'm very happy to see improvements trickle their way down to boards like this! Would love for mainstream boards to continue to grow to a higher standard, and great job with this video!

The color and the design are amazing, Amazing review as always

I'm waiting for low profile ( membrane or butterfly ) keybord

I love the aqua switches, great review
