Genesis Thor 420 RGB is a great offer for those players who are looking for a quick, durable, and sweet looking mechanical keyboard. Equipped with flat keys, the new model also boasts a great price, which won't burn your budget down. The Genesis Thor 420 RGB is a keyboard with flat, mechanical switches with 50 million click durability. The keys require low activation force (45 g) and provide sufficient feedback with a click. This is why the new Thor 420 is great not only for games, but also working with documents. The set is closed in an aluminium casing, equipped with RGB LED illumination with PRISMO effect and 22 work modes.

As a product intended mainly for gamers, the Genesis Thor 420 RGB also has full N-Key rollover function. This mechanism prevents the keys from blocking, when several of them, or even more than ten, are pressed at the same time. The manufacturer states that the presented model has not limits in this respect and you can press all its keys at once. Multimedia buttons as well as an option to block the Windows key are also a welcome addition.
 
Device settings can be changed to suit your individual needs with the use of an advanced app prepared by the manufacturer. The low-profile Genesis Thor 420 RGB mechanical keyboard will be available for purchase in a couple of days. Potential buyers should expect a price point of around €78.

Technical specifications:
  • model: Thor 420 RGB
  • keyboard type: low-profile, mechanical
  • switch durability: 50 million clicks
  • force required for activation: 45 g
  • feedback: perceptible and audible click
  • number of keys: 104
  • number of multimedia keys: 12
  • size: 418 x 113 x 24 mm
  • communication: 1.65 m USB cable
  • supported operating systems: Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10, Linux, Android
A mechanical keyboard for 78 Euros is certainly not a bad option in my opinion so long as the flat keys give good feel when typing or gaming.

    Ugh. I couldn't hang with flat keys on a flat board. Looks and sounds like a scissor-switch laptop keyboard.

    "feedback: perceptible and audible click"
    Shouldn't that be tactile and audible click?
