ASUS seems to tease gamers with "extremes", this being the case for its new ROG Azoth Extreme gaming keyboard that will hit the shelves later this year. Featuring, under an aluminium alloy compact-size chassis with a metal frame a full-color OLED touchscreen, a carbon fiber positioning plate (better typing feel, acoustics and reduced keystroke vibrations), extended silicone wrist rest, magnetic feet, an adjustable gasket mount, this new addition to the ROG Azoth series possesses interesting qualities for gamers looking to get the best action.

The OLED touchscreen should not fool anyone, it is tiny but still perfectly capable to display system info or let gamers customize keyboard settings with the built-in three-way knob for instant adjustments. ASUS ROG Azoth Extreme gaming keyboard makes use of proprietary ASUS SpeedNova technology offering tri-mode connectivity (2.4 GHz RF, Bluetooth, Wired). The product will be available from Q3 2024 to complement the ASUS ROG Extreme family.

IMO most compelling (relative to market) product Asus has put out in a long time.

Only question remaining: will the price be absolutely delusional?

Short answer: Yes.

Long answer: Abso-fucking-lutley!

Also, c'mon ASUS, admit it - y'all just made the wrist rest that fucking big as an excuse to be able to slap an even BIGGER version of that tacky-ass eye logo on it... :shadedshu: :fear:

I guess 300$ for a keyboard with a plastic case...
