Gigabyte Force K3: A Water Resistant Keyboard for Sweaty Gamers
If you've never pounded your keyboard in frustration or frantically mashed the keys during an intense battle, then you probably don't spend a lot of time playing games. Gamers have a tendency to be rough with their gear, and if Gigabyte's new Force K3 keyboard lives up to its billing, it could end up attracting a lot of game players who need a plank that can withstand their abuse.
This isn't a rugged keyboard by any stretch, but it does boast an enhanced four-layer frame structure with an extra chassis in the middle. This allows the single rubber sheet to be firmly attached to the bottom of the keyboard and gives the plank a bit of drop resistance.
It's also shock resistant, meaning it's not supposed to move around on your desk as your adrenaline causes you to press keys with a little more force than you normally would. The thing weighs 900g, Gigabyte says. Adding to its durability, the keys are also water resistant to protect against spilled drinks.
Gigabyte promises a "good bargain!," but has yet to announce a price or release date.
