This ASUS ROG keyboard replaced my Razer Black Widow Pro, which started double typing letters after a week usage. Could NOT get it to stop longer than a couple days. No issues with the ROG. Recommend.

Asus has this great gaming keyboard all the keys light up nicely and you can customize lighting patterns with armory crate software also you can sync all your devices with the armory crate to control all your rgb devices.

The keyboard was great at first. Very responsive, nice color options using Armoury Crate for RGB lighting. I like that the wrist brace portion is removable. I removed mine and use a padded brace instead. Several macro options although I never had a need to use them. There have been other issues, like the backlighting randomly turning off and not coming back on or not syncing properly but those issues have been related entirely to software and updating software or reinstalling has fixed the issues. However, after about a year of use, keys started repeating or stopped actuating completely. I will say that I use this keyboard A LOT. My job requires me to basically type for 8+ hours a day, 5+ days a week. Most of the keys haven't stopped working completely, mostly just ones that I rarely use myself. Others will work if I hit them multiple times. The repeating keys are my biggest annoyance because they don't do it all the time and it's some of the most commonly used keys like S, B, A, W, and 4 and 6. Basically, it just slows down my typing. I've tried cleaning the keyboard but it doesn't seem to help. I suppose it is possible that I've used the keyboard more than the average person, causing it to reach end of life faster but I ultimately expected more out of a keyboard that costs $100+. I do actively use it between 10-14 hours a day. If I'm not using it, someone else in my house is. For the most part, it's still currently useable but I'm in the process of searching for a replacement. Again, it could just be the level of use but I was really expecting to use this keyboard for 4-5 years at the very least.

Love the palm rest. Fun RGB lights.

If you don't have a Asus setup and just want a high quality keyboard for gaming, I would probably go with the Corsair K95 Platinum. However, if you are like me and want to match the rest of your hardware, this isn't a bad choice. The lighting, if you are into that kind of thing, is really good. Several choices on lighting effects, however I stick with "static". Build quality is pretty good and it feels solid. One thing I have a problem with is the lack of bumps to find the S key when gaming. It's marketed as a gaming keyboard but the only location bumps on the key caps are on the F and J keys which are the standards for finding 'home row' when typing. They need to add a 'bump' on the S key so you can more easily locate WASD while gaming. In addition, the wrist rest doesn't really snap to the keyboard and if you pick it up to move it, it's going to fall off. Not a big deal to most people I would imagine, but worth a mention. I wish this keyboard had a row of macro assigned keys like the K95, but Asus kept the keyboard smaller by not adding them. Maybe not enough people use this, I'm not sure. This keyboard does not come with a key cap puller for easy cleaning. This is something that the K95 comes with and is the kind of attention to detail that Asus all too often miss with their peripherals (Claymore wrist rest anyone?). For the premium price, I expect attention to detail and perks. As of right now the biggest miss for me is the software, I did not change my rating based on the software, as this is supposed to be a review of the keyboard, and to me, the keyboard is a 4 out of 5. The software would probably be a 2 or 3 out of 5. There is a lot of room for improvement. Right now if you want to enabled a profile for a particular game, i.e. changing certain important key cap colors such as WASD, etc, that can be done by linking the profile to a exe. The problem is, as far as I know, there is no easy way to switch back to a default profile once you shut the game down. Because of this, you have to open Armoury II and manually click back to your default profile. How that hasn't been addressed at this point I'm not sure. To sum up, solid keyboard missing some details and perks you'd expect for the amount of money you pay. Software needs improvement as it's not good enough yet.

So, this keyboard I've had for over a year now, and I absolutely love it. Click and clack's have stayed true and they keys have gotten a bit worn out, but nothing that a bit of cleaning won't fix. RGB software is absolutely bad, if you use their old ASUS Aura and ROG armory applications, they actually do wonders for the keyboard. Though use the new Armory II software to update the keyboards software (really important). THE FATAL FLAW: If you are booting your PC up, and Windows or Linux has not popped up yet, DO NOT CLICK THE BRIGHTNESS HOTKEY ON THE TOP OF THE KEYBOARD NXET TO THE WINDOWS LOCK BUTTON. It will brick your keyboard. If you ask Asus to help fix it, they will ask for a 30-35 dollar charge into looking into it. This is not stated anywhere, but KEEP IT IN MIND. Don't click on boot up. Asus support said to update the keyboards firmware as it "addresses" the problem, but I could not get them to say that it "fixes" the problem. Which means that the bug is probably still there. EVGA came out with a new keyboard recently and for my next one, I may be looking towards there. That bug is just so bad. And it exists in all of the models except for the COD one I believe, in which they had patched it there. I got lucky and Amazon support helped me out and get it replaced, but don't bet on it. If you're okay with that problem, it's a damn good keyboard otherwise! Just sucks when you aren't warned about such a terrible problem.

The strix flare has great cherry switches and the style matches my other ROG great. It has an very nice key feel and feedback. The wristwrest is at just the right hight for me and the usb pass thru is a great place to put a biometric login device.
