The advantage of this magnetic approach is that it’s inherently analog, meaning the Hall effect sensor can tell whether a switch has been pressed a little bit or a lot.
First, it’ll allow users to customize the exact point when one of its MGX switches actuates (read: registers a keypress) from anywhere between an ultra-responsive 0.4mm to a full 3.6mm (the default is 2mm).
The feature, which is also available for Wooting’s Hall effect keyboards, won’t be available at launch for the K70 Max, but Corsair spokesperson Justin Ocbina says it’ll be released via a firmware update before the end of the month.
Unlike Razer, Corsair’s keyboards scan for keypresses at a slower 4,000Hz before reporting them to a connected computer at this maximum 8,000Hz, but in practice, I’ve never noticed any difference in input latency.
Around top, you’ll find Corsair’s standard “tournament switch,” which is designed to be used during competitive play and disables any recorded macros or distracting flashing backlighting.
The company advertises that the headset is compatible with PC, Mac, and PlayStation consoles via its 2.4GHz dongle and can also connect to additional devices via Bluetooth.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
