Multimedia Keys

The keyboard includes 12 multimedia keys accessible by pressing the Fn key in combination with the F1 through F12 keys. These functions allow for quick control of media playback, volume, and other system functions.

Anti-Ghosting and N-Key Rollover

All 87 mechanical keys on the KG060-BR keyboard are conflict-free, featuring N-Key Rollover. This ensures that every keystroke is registered accurately, even when multiple keys are pressed simultaneously, which is crucial for gaming performance.

Mechanical Switches

The keyboard utilizes custom mechanical brown switches. These switches offer medium resistance, a crisp but quieter click sound, and precise tactile feedback, suitable for both typing and gaming. They are designed for longevity, tested for 50 million keystrokes.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance can extend the lifespan of your keyboard:
