IOGear HVER Pro X

IOGear’s HVER Pro X is a stylish and flashy gaming keyboard that impresses with its looks but underwhelms with its performance. While there are relatively few mechanical gaming keyboards offering full RGB lighting at the $89.95 price point, there are several keyboards in that ballpark that simply blow the HVER Pro X away in terms of performance.
