ASUS ROG Claymore Gaming Keyboard Pictured

Here are some of the first pictures of ASUS' upcoming flagship gaming keyboard, the Republic of Gamers (ROG) Claymore. This RGB LED-lit mechanical keyboard features a detachable NUM pad, so you get the convenience of the NUM pad at home, and the portability of a shorter 80-key keyboard when out on LANs. The detachable NUM pad provides two additional conveniences, a vertical multi-function scroll-wheel (volume control by default), and an additional USB 3.0 port. The company did not provide details such as the switch manufacturer, or the electronics at play, but you can bet that the lighting management will be care of the ASUS Aura suite.

the design quite chio.. first time see detachable numpad.. and still able to do RGB.

 

[Allanlee82]

can the numpad be used on its own when detach?

Nope! The claymore bond does not work independently.

So what's unique about this keyboard other than being able to utilise the Asus Aura Sync?

The price is... very high

Even Das division zero cost cheaper.

i think the coolest feature has to be this.

Experience the synergy between ROG Claymore and your ROG motherboard via exclusive hotkeys that let you boot up the system, control fan speed*, overclock and access BIOS**.

Tec-Drome has too many goodies. that's why you missed this

Even Das division zero cost cheaper.

no doubt it's an expensive keyboard with $319 SRP, but ROG fans will most likely get it anyway.

Having used it for a few days, the aluminium frame really appeals to me.
