Syntech Chronos 68: Rapid Trigger Magnetic Keyboard Arrives
Syntech is taking the gaming gear world by storm with the release of their latest offering: the Chronos 68 Rapid Trigger Magnetic mechanical keyboard. As a premium product, this keyboard aims to give gamers a serious edge.
Built for Performance and Comfort
Right out of the box, you'll enjoy the sturdy aluminum frame, along with the handy dust cover and wrist rest for those long gaming marathons. But the magic is under the keycaps.
This keyboard uses cutting-edge magnetic switches. As opposed to mechanical switches, you can set exactly when a keypress is activated – anything from a hair-trigger 0.1mm to a more deliberate 3.5mm. Combine that with an extremely high 8000Hz polling rate, and you're talking almost instantaneous response times.
Game-Changing Features
Syntech didn't stop there. They've added some innovative tech specifically for gamers:
- Quick Trigger: This is huge. It resets the key the instant you start lifting your finger, instead of after it returns to a fixed point. This allows incredibly fast successive presses and strafing.
- Snap Tap: Ever accidentally pressed two keys at the same time in the heat of the moment. Snap Tap allows your inputs to be prioritized, preventing command overlaps when things get wild.
- Super Tap: Great for MOBA and FPS gamers. Ideal for mapping four different commands to one key depending on the press combinations (e.g., a tap versus a hold).
Easy On-the-Fly Customization
Settings tinkering is straightforward. The Chronos 68 has a faultless tuning system. Using the dedicated hotkeys, you can directly plunge into the software interface to remap keys, capture complex macros, and assign those individual trigger points per key effortlessly.
Getting Your Hands On It
The Syntech Chronos 68 Rapid Trigger Magnetic keyboard retails for $139 in the US.
