Product details
- VERSATILITY EVOLVED – With the ROG Claymore II, you can create your ideal gaming setup by placing the new detachable numpad on whichever side you prefer; then choose between wired or wireless mode and light it all up with Aura Sync. Assume full tactical control with ROG RX Optical Mechanical Switches and customizable hotkeys.
- PLAY IT YOUR WAY - The detachable numpad can be attached on either side of the keyboard, or it can be removed entirely if you prefer to use ROG Claymore II in TKL mode (80%). It can also be programmed to be used as a macro keypad for complex in-game commands. This flexibility gives you various combinations to suit your play style and gaming setup.
- ROG RX OPTICAL MECHANICAL SWITCHES - ROG RX Red and RX Blue Optical Mechanical Switches offer consistent, wobble-free keystrokes with a superfast 1 ms response and 100-million-keystroke lifespan. These premium switches have a hollow-square stem design and they feature embedded RGB LEDs providing all-round per-key lighting.
- LAG-FREE CONNECTION - Play in wired or wireless 2.4 GHz RF mode, with a superfast 1 millisecond response time.
- FAST CHARGE OR USB PASSTHROUGH - 30 minutes of USB-C fast charging allows ROG Claymore II to be operated for up to 18 hours (lighting off). The fast-charge function can be switched off to use the provided USB passthrough for convenient connection to other devices.
