Much of the 7G’s crazy price pays for trickery such as gold-plated USB and PS/2 connectors, as well as 18K gold-plated switches for the keys, which SteelSeries claims reduce latency. Although we could actually feel a slight improvement in response time compared with some of the keyboards in...

We couldn’t lock this keyboard up. Great action on a classic keyboard layout.
Barebones. Very loud. Extremely expensive. USB ports only support 1.1 speeds.
