WHAT CAN YOU LOOK FORWARD TO?
The Rapture ALPHA gaming keyboard features quiet Cherry MX Red mechanical linear switches with low resistance. This makes Cherry MX Red the perfect choice for beginners in the world of mechanical keyboards. With an actuation force of 45gf, a 2mm activation point and total travel of 4mm, Cherry MX Red switches boast an incredible lifespan of 50 million presses.
Rapture ALPHA features a classic key layout with CZ/SK localisation, including a full-size numeric section and 12 multimedia keys for quick access to music control, volume, backlighting and more. The finished result is a key legend that never fades or wears off—the characters will be clearly legible for the lifetime of the keyboard. This gives RAPTURE ALPHA a significant advantage over conventional keyboards, where the printed characters fade away over time. RAPTURE ALPHA also has a Windows button lock, so you can't accidentally hit the button in the middle of a battle and mess up your game by bringing up the Start menu.
Anti-Ghosting and N-Key Rollover are two features that no self-respecting gaming keyboard can do without—not even Rapture ALPHA. Ghosting is a keyboard limitation due to shared circuits that causes some keys not to work when multiple keys are pressed at the same time. Not only does ghosting mean that the keyboard is unable to record multiple key presses (usually a maximum of six keys), but at the same time, it can also register keys that you did not press at all. Fortunately, the Rapture ALPHA mechanical keyboard addresses this problem by giving each switch its own circuit. As a result, all of your key presses are recorded with accuracy to give you the best possible gaming experience. N-Key Rollover takes Anti-Ghosting technology one step further by scanning each button press individually instead of having the PC do it—perfect when you are pressing a whole heap of buttons to pull off complicated commands. Thanks to N-Key Rollover, Anti-Ghosting works on all keys—you can hold down all of Rapture ALPHA's 104 keys, and your computer will recognise them all.
You can fine-tune the settings of the Rapture ALPHA mechanical keyboard using intuitive software (downloadable here). Independent RGB backlighting of each key and the front of the keyboard provides a stunning spectacle. As the backlight is adjustable, you can easily match it to suit your gaming setup. You can also use the FN + DEL key combination or the FN function key to customise settings quickly.
Installing the Rapture ALPHA keyboard is done through Plug & Play, so you don't have to worry about a long-winded setup or installing any drivers. Just plug the gaming keyboard into a free USB port—and it's ready to go in a matter of seconds. The flexible and braided cable with a USB connector is 1.8 metres long. A key removal tool is also included in the package.
