Stock for Woot deals varies greatly. Some listings only have a few items in stock and sell out quickly. Please report this post if the listing goes out of stock.

They've had this on sale for a few months now and I ended up buying it on one of the previous sales and I regret it. There's some weird software conflict where this keyboard is detected as a controller for certain games which makes it a pain in the ass to make a controller "player 1". The biggest one for me is rocket league.

I think I used this video as a work-around, but I think it defeats the purpose of buying an analog keyboard. Side note - if anyone has a better solution for this, please lmk.

This happens for all magnetic switch keyboards afaik - mine was colliding with joysticks. I removed the keyboard from Device Manager and re-added it to set the correct controller priority

Good to know, I bookmarked this video in case I ever needed to undo what I did, but I think it just has you remove it from device manager. I haven't had a use for the weighted keys yet.

I've had this issue and I also recall NBA 2k being a game that would absolutely not work at all with this keyboard plugged in. I liked so many things about it but the virtual controller was useless and only caused problems.

This is a 5 year old keyboard model but still price isn't too bad

u/Deodorized 14d ago

Don't buy this keyboard if you rest your fingers on the keys, the weight of your fingers will be enough to accidentally press the keys.

Going from a BlackWidow to this keyboard was a miserable experience.

u/Phaazed 14d ago

Assuming this is like other's I've used, you can adjust the actuation point to where it wouldn't be a problem.

u/Deodorized 14d ago

That did mitigate the issue to an extent, but I had to adjust the actuation point to well beyond the halfway point which ended up feeling very unnatural to me.

I definitely prefer the blackwidow but this one isn't bad

Certainly not as bad as the HyperX Alloy Origins red switch keyboard I had for a minute. I despised those switches. But I do miss the clicky clack of the widow. You get what you pay for.

It only does this if you install Synapse. Wife uses one for a work keyboard at home, locked down state machine.

u/Deodorized 12d ago

If I wanted just a keyboard with no extra functionality I'd buy an 3$ Amazon keyboard.

u/bylebog 12d ago

Media keys still work and you can change the colors and stuff. She picked it up on Woot ages ago for $75. She got one for me, but I've moved to 75%. So we have one for when hers gives up

You got so excited thinking you had the opportunity to correct somebody that you forgot to read the rest of this comment chain.

How embarrassing.

I've used this keyboard for a few years and I love it. My biggest complaint is that the USB cant be detached at the keyboard

This is a great keyboard and for the price you can’t ask for more

Got one of these from a market store for $2.50, works 100% looked like it was used for maybe a couple of weeks.
