  High quality keyboard. Unexpectedly great.

  I've had this keyboard for three years and I use it for everything. It is my daily driver for both work and recreation. I've had many keyboards from old IBM heavy clackers, to dome-switch Dells, to gamer-y RGB mechanicals (from another brand), to hand-lubed custom swappable keyswitch types, and this HyperX Alloy Origins Core is my overall favorite to date.It's very solid, reliable, has a consistent smooth and lightly tactile key action (I got the aqua switches) and pictures don't do it justice. It may look like just another black RGB keyboard but the feel, weight, minimalistic design, and lighting quality in-person all feel premium. There is a little rattle from the space bar stabilizers but that's nit-picking and can probably be solved with lube. The well-placed rubber feet and heavy weight keep it from sliding around. The braided USB cable is removable.The TKL is my favorite version of this keyboard not only because it strikes the right balance between size and the keys I most use, but also it's understated appearance with the TKL's black on black HyperX logo. With the bright, programmable RGB lighting it can do wild gamer style but can also pull off looking clean and professional.The keycaps that come with it are not PBT but they are high quality. They have a smooth texture and show fingerprints to some degree but they do not wear down. The font is clear and not obnoxiously gamer-y. Again it hits a balance between understated clean and gamer glitz. After years of constant use, the WASD and spacebar keys still look and feel as good as the rest of the keys without the uneven wear and glossiness that commonly develops with other keyboards.One of my favorite features is the look of the backlighting. Many premium mechanical keyboards do not have backlighting and ones that do often have unevenly lit keys or fonts that have hotspots that just look cheap to me. Not this keyboard; it has the most evenly lit key fonts I've seen.And this keyboard can go bright when you turn it up. The included RGB software is ok. I had no problems with it but understand others have. Good news is you can download up to three different custom lighting profiles into the keyboard itself, so you DO NOT have to have the software running to enjoy custom lighting, animations, or macros, if you are into that.Ver másVer menos

  Fantastic mechanical TKL

  I bought this with the HyperX blue switches to replace a Das Keyboard Pro 4 with Cherry MX Blue switches for work (I am a programmer). I loved the Das, it's a solid workhorse and the clicky cherry blue switches are so satisfying, but it's huge and I wanted something smaller so that I could position my keyboard directly in front of me without pushing my mouse way off to the right.Feel - When I got this keyboard, I put it next to the Das to compare the HyperX blue switches to the Cherry MX blues. There is a slight, noticeable difference. I would say that the cherry blues are _slightly_ crisper, but the difference is negligible. The HyperX blues are still plenty clicky and satisfying. I got used to this keyboard very quickly. I probably wouldn't have noticed any difference if I didn't have them side-by-side. No complaints here, it's a joy to type on this keyboard.Noise - Yes it's loud, that comes with the territory. The volume is comparable to the Das... however... I read other reviews that complained about "pinging" and didn't know what they were talking about. This wasn't a problem with the Das even after years of use. However, in the past few days (after a month of using this keyboard) I noticed that some keys, particularly the Tab and Ctrl keys, make a "pinging" noise after being pressed. It's not as loud as the normal clicking noise of the keys and it depends how snappy and hard you tap the keys, but it's there. It doesn't really bother me but I could see how it might grate on some people's nerves. You could always just turn on some music. :)Design - I love the compact form. There is no wasted space around the keys to needlessly take desk space. The key layout is the same as what I'm used to minus the number pad, no funky layout to make it more compact or cram in extra keys. The spacing feels slightly different compared to the Das; I guess the keys are slightly closer together? Not a big deal, I got used to it in maybe a week or two. It lacks USB ports to plug in other devices, but this wasn't a big issue for me. Like any other mechanical keyboard it is a bit tall and I highly recommend getting a wrist rest like the Glorious Gaming wrist rest (don't forget to get a TKL size).Lighting and software - This was low on my priorities, but I have to say the RGB lighting is cool. This keyboard is VERY BRIGHT. It has 4 brightness levels other than off (25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) but even on the lowest setting at 25% it is quite bright. However you can dim the brightness to whatever level you want with the software. The software, despite all the complaints in other reviews, seems fine to me. It gives you a lot of flexibility for layered colors and effects that are very cool. I have no problems with it other than I wish it allowed you to load the settings from your keyboard to tweak them after you save them to the keyboard, but it does look like it has profiles that you can save and load in the software.Summary - This is a fantastic TKL layout mechanical keyboard that I would recommend for work or games. The blue switches are comparable to Cherry MX blues. However, if you can't stand the "pinging" noise on some keys then you may want something higher quality.

  Quality Keyboard, Amazing switches, Not the greatest software

  The first thing I noticed when I pulled the Hyperx Alloy Core Origins out of the box was the weight. The thing was HEFTY. This just screams quality to me. Usually keyboard around this price range are not made out of metal and if they are it's only on top while the bottom of the board is plastic. This is not the case with this one. The whole keyboard is metal. The frame is very sturdy and the hyperx aqua switches are pretty good. Coming from cherry mx reds, using these aqua switches was a great improvement from my older corsair board. The keycaps that come applied on the board are okay in quality, but there are some better one's out there as far as durability is concerned, but at this price point I am not going to complain. Just buy yourself a good set of pbt keycaps for around 15 dollars. Hyperx sells those as well which is what I replaced the old caps with. The lighting and RGB is extremely bright and has 5 brightness options: Off and 4 levels increasing in intensity. This board outshines by a huge margin my older Corsair k70 lux. I would have given this hyperx and this keyboard a 4.9 out of 5 stars because although I am in love with the board the software is close to being complete trash. I read other reviews prior to purchasing that the software (Ngenuity) was bad, but reviewers tend to exaggerate some things. Not with this though. The software always crashes whenever I attempt to customize the colors and profiles of my board. It occurs randomly every few minutes or so and if it does it erases and undo's all of the customization that you have input into the app. Not only that but you would have to keep the program running to have it save the profiles. Like I said this would have been given a 4.9, but since that's not an option I think giving it a 4 would be lying to the customer who wants to buy this next. Excellent product!Ver másVer menos

  Excellent Quality, Excellent Customer Service

  This is my first mechanical keyboard and I now understand why they are preferred over membrane variants. I went with the aqua keys and they are wonderful for both typing and gaming. I've had the keyboard for about two weeks now and it's really great.I've heard a lot of complaints about the software, but I've had no problems whatsoever with using it. It's intuitive and functional enough that I set up my keyboard in just a few minutes and haven't had to use the program again. The backlighting works well and is quite vibrant.The keys feel wonderful and responsive. I was initially worried about tactile keys being annoying for gaming, but after using them I couldn't recommend them more. Some people mentioned the cheap keycaps, but I haven't had any issues personally with them. My only complaint is that if you're a heavy handed typist like myself, there is a faint metallic ring when hitting the keys. It isn't loud and doesn't bother me much, but I'd be happier if it wasn't there at all. It's a minor gripe overall and isn't worth deducting a star for. Most of the time I'm typing with headphones on and can't hear it at all, so it hasn't bothered me much. If you like to type in a quiet environment though, it might annoy you.Edit: 8 Month update:Unfortunately, the W key on my keyboard stopped working yesterday. Fortunately, the customer service is so excellent that they shipped me a replacement and I'm typing on it today. It's hard to complain about a one day turnaround. Fantastic.Ver másVer menos

  HyperX Alloy Origins Core Keyboard Pros and Cons

  Do not hit the “Add to Cart” button until you read this review! This is an honest review based on my own personal experience using the HyperX Alloy Origins Core keyboard for more than two months. Do not get me wrong, overall, it is a really good keyboard, however, I think it’s worth noting its pluses as well as its problems before you make your final decision and hit the “Add to Cart” button. This keyboard has a lot of functionality; however, it also has a few issues.There are definitely many pros for the HyperX keyboard. In my opinion, it has a lot of functionality and is clearly worth the price. First, the LED lights on this keyboard are really cool! They are individually controlled and allow you to easily change the lighting effects. And believe me, when I say it, these lights are much nicer than you would expect. It is as if you have your own personal mini light show! Second, the more compact Tenkeyless (TKL) size fits nicely on my desk and gives me significantly more room to work with. That means less mess! Woohoo! I would highly recommend this keyboard to anyone who likes the TKL style. Third, the tactile aqua switches are also really nice. Additionally, on the issue of whether you want linear or tactile switches, that will be entirely up to your personal preference. However, a general rule of thumb that I use is if you will be typing documents and gaming get tactile, and if you are just going to use it for gaming only, get linear. Fourth, the all-aluminum body design is sturdier than most keyboards. Fifth, because HyperX frequently updates their software, it provides the user with the latest new features. Sixth, if you are coming from a non-mechanical keyboard it will take some getting used to at first because of the difference in actuation time. However, once you get used to this, it is hard to go back to a non-mechanical keyboard due to all the benefits that come with a mechanical keyboard. Basically, the mechanical keyboard has a better feel to it and is easier to work with than other keyboards. Finally, the removable USB plug is a great feature since it allows you to use custom USB cables for that extra bit of aesthetics.Now for the cons of the HyperX keyboard. The first issue I found was the lack of onboard memory for key trigger effects, however, this has since been fixed. Second, the lack of dedicated media keys was extremely difficult to get used to. In my opinion, this keyboard could be improved by adding media keys. Finally, the NGenuity software kind of sucks! Specifically, during the automatic software updates, it sometimes removes features that you like and want to keep. As a result, just when you get used to a specific feature and without any warning, NGenuity removes it. Basically, the software is slightly difficult to work with, although it does get the job done. Bottom line, the software is definitely not perfect and could be a bit more intuitive.As you can see, the HyperX keyboard has many more pros than cons that should be considered before you hit the “Add to Cart” button. Overall, the keyboard is very good, and I will continue to use it as my main keyboard. For the price, it does it all with a nice compact design to keep your desk clean and uncluttered. If you are looking for a new keyboard, I would suggest taking a look at this one, however, don’t take my word for it, look at all the other reviews online. I hope you found this review helpful. This keyboard has a lot of functionality; however, it also has a few issues to consider before you hit the “Add to Cart” button.
