Prvi put smo čuli za ASUS -ovu Republic of Gamers mehaničku tipkovnicu s RGB osvjetljenjem 2015. A godinu dana kasnije, krajem 2016., ASUS je konačno lansirao svoj ASUS ROG Claymore . To je tipkovnica za igre koja oduševljava i oduševljava svakoga tko je pogleda, s RGB osvjetljenjem punog spektra na svakoj tipki pojedinačno, potpuno programabilnim tipkama i s podrškom za Aura Sync (tehnologija koja sinkronizira vaše postavke osvjetljenja na svim uređajima). Osim toga, to je također modularna tipkovnica, što znači da možete pričvrstiti ili odvojiti Numpadna ili izvan tijela glavne tipkovnice. Imali smo ga za svirati tijekom praznika i željeli bismo podijeliti s vama sve što smo pronašli o njemu u ovoj recenziji:

Raspakiravanje ASUS ROG Claymorea

ASUS ROG Claymore gaming tipkovnica dolazi u kutiji vrhunskog izgleda izrađenoj od sjajnog crnog kartona. Na njegovoj prednjoj strani nalazi se velika slika tipkovnice u punoj veličini koju ćete pronaći unutra, zajedno s logotipom Republic of Gamers .

Okrenite kutiju naopako i vidjet ćete sve značajke i hardverske specifikacije koje ovu gaming tipkovnicu čine uistinu posebnom, kao što su Cherry MX prekidači koje koristi, ^{(Cherry MX)}RGB osvjetljenje punog spektra koje dobivate na svakom prekidaču ili odvojiva numerička tipkovnica.

Otvorite kutiju i pronaći ćete ASUS ROG Claymore igraću tipkovnicu i njezinu odvojivu numeričku tipkovnicu^(Numpad) , obje uvučene u zasebne crne baršunaste torbe.

Ispod tipkovnice također ćete pronaći pleteni USB na microUSB kabel, dvije Republic of Gamers naljepnice, vodič za brzi početak, jamstveni list i poruku dobrodošlice ROG obitelji.

Iskustvo raspakiranja koje dobivate od ASUS ROG Claymore gaming tipkovnice vrlo je ugodno i vrlo dobro služi svojoj svrsi da vas još više zapita kakva će biti vaša nova tipkovnica. Ovo je definitivno premium uređaj.^{(The unboxing experience you get from the ASUS ROG Claymore gaming keyboard is very pleasant and serves very well its purpose of making you even more curious about what your new keyboard will be like. This is definitely a premium device.)}

Specifikacije hardvera

ASUS ROG Claymore je tipkovnica za igre koja koristi mehaničke prekidače . To su Cherry MX RGB prekidači, a možete birati između njihovih crvenih, crnih, plavih ili smeđih varijacija, ovisno o vašim željama u pogledu udaljenosti i sile aktiviranja ili buke koju će proizvoditi. RGB dio prekidača odnosi se na činjenicu da mogu svijetliti u bilo kojoj boji koju želite, pojedinačno. A zahvaljujući tehnologiji zvanoj Aura , ASUS ROG Claymore također može sinkronizirati svoje svjetlosne efekte s onima koje ste postavili na druge ASUS osvijetljene uređaje koje posjedujete.

Bez obzira na tip prekidača koji preferirate, ASUS vam obećava da će vam svaki od njih izdržati 50 milijuna pritisaka na tipke. To je dosta, a ako pročitate ovaj članak^{(this article)} , vidjet ćete da bi prekidači na ASUS ROG Claymoreu^{(ASUS ROG Claymore)} trebali trajati mnogo godina.

ASUS ROG Claymore igraća tipkovnica također ima tehnologiju protiv ghostinga i tako osigurava da svaki vaš pritisak na tipku bude otkriven i zabilježen od strane tipkovnice, bez obzira na to koliko se drugih tipki pritisne u isto vrijeme.

Budući da je uređaj namijenjen igračima, ASUS ROG Claymore tipkovnica također nudi mnoštvo prilagodbi i kontrola za način rada tipki, za osvjetljenje i makro postavke. Jedna stvar koju cijenimo je to što ima ugrađenu flash memoriju što znači da možete prilagoditi svoju tipkovnicu bez korištenja softvera ASUS -a . Možete koristiti kombinacije tipki za promjenu načina na koji svijetli, za snimanje i korištenje makronaredbi ili čak za overklok procesora ili RAM memorije te za kontrolu brzine ventilatora, ako je i vaša matična ploča izrađena od strane ASUS -a .

Tipkovnica se povezuje s vašim računalom pomoću 1,8 metara (71 inča) dugog pletenog microUSB na USB 2.0 odvojivog kabela, koji možete urediti na stražnjoj strani tipkovnice tako da izlazi lijevo ili desno.

Budući da je ASUS ROG Claymore mehanička tipkovnica i budući da joj je okvir izrađen od metala, to nije lagan uređaj. Teži 770 grama ili 27 unci i 360 x 145 x 45 mm (14,17 x 5,70 x 1,77 inča) po dužini, širini i debljini. Sve to bez uzimanja u obzir odvojivog dijela Numpada^(Numpad) . S priključenim Numpadom^(Numpad) , tipkovnica je teška 888 grama ili 31 uncu i 450 x 145 x 45 mm (17,72 x 5,70 x 1,77 inča) po dužini, širini i debljini.

Što se tiče operativnih sustava koje podržava, ASUS ROG Claymore gaming tipkovnica radi sa Windows 10 , Windows 8.1 i Windows 7 .

Cijeli skup specifikacija ove tipkovnice možete pronaći ovdje: ASUS ROG Claymore .

Korištenje ASUS ROG Claymore tipkovnice

Počnimo s osnovama: ASUS ROG Claymore tipkovnica koristi mehaničke prekidače postavljene na metalni okvir od aluminijske legure. Ovaj okvir je težak ako ste navikli na plastične tipkovnice, ali je lagan ako ga usporedite s drugim mehaničkim gaming tipkovnicama kao što je Razer Blackwidow . Naravno, RGB boje će ponijeti svu slavu, ali kako bi Claymore bio još ljepši i privlačniji igračima, ASUS se pobrinuo i za to kako izgleda okvir tipkovnice, pa je na njenu površinu otisnuo dizajn inspiriran Majama, koji moramo reći da izgleda jako lijepo.

Prethodno smo spomenuli da ASUS ROG Claymore^{(ASUS ROG Claymore)} možete kupiti s crvenim, crnim, plavim ili smeđim Cherry MX prekidačima. To je široka paleta opcija i odgovarat će željama i preferencijama bilo kojeg igrača. To kažemo jer je odabir pravih prekidača za vas iznimno važan. Svatko ima svoj stil tipkanja i neki ljudi su spremni nositi se s više buke za najbolju moguću izvedbu, dok drugi preferiraju manje buke.

ASUS ROG Claymore tipkovnica koju smo testirali imala je Cherry MX RGB^{(Cherry MX RGB)} smeđe prekidače. " Brownies " imaju dodatnu taktilnu povratnu informaciju u usporedbi s crnim ili crvenim prekidačima, a također su i manje kliktavi braća i sestre u obitelji, što znači da ne prave toliko buke kao plavi ili zeleni. Zbog ovih značajki, smeđi Cherry MX prekidači su vrlo popularni u svijetu igrača i također su vrlo dobar izbor za ljude koji puno pišu na svojoj tipkovnici.

Tipke na ASUS ROG Claymoreu^{(ASUS ROG Claymore)} lako je pronaći i čini se da ih pritisnete kako treba. Ne zahtijevaju previše sile, ali nije ih ni lako pritisnuti. Smeđi prekidači su umjereni u svakom pogledu, i to je dobra stvar. Iskreno, tipkanje na ovoj tipkovnici je užitak!

Na ASUS ROG Claymore se također vrlo lako naviknuti jer raspored tipki na okviru koristi zadani ANSI model smještaja. To znači da imate na raspolaganju dugu lijevu tipku Shift i da je tipka Enter pravokutna. Ovo je raspored koji se koristi na velikoj većini zapadnih tipkovnica pa postoji velika mogućnost da je isti kao i vaša prethodna tipkovnica.

Sve tipke na ASUS ROG Claymoreu^{(ASUS ROG Claymore)} pojedinačno su osvijetljene RGB LED diodama^{(RGB LEDs)} . To znači da možete prilagoditi boju svjetla svemu što želite u beskonačnosti varijacija. To je zapravo san moddera. 🙂 Postoje neki unaprijed definirani efekti koje možete primijeniti na osvjetljenje tipkovnice, poput Breathing, Color Cycle, Wave, Ripple, Reactive, Starry Night i Quicksand , a možete stvoriti i vlastite prilagođene efekte koji odgovaraju igrama koje igrate ili jednostavno vizualni izgled koji vam se sviđa. Demo svih ovih načina možete pogledati u videu ispod.

Većina efekata je konfigurirana i kontrolirana iz ROG Armory^{(ROG Armoury)} softvera kojeg osigurava ASUS . Međutim, Claymore tipkovnica se također može konfigurirati izravno pritiskom na određene tipke. Iako su kontrole kojima imate pristup jednostavnije, vjerojatno će biti dovoljne za prilagodbu tipkovnice kako želite, bez potrebe za instalacijom ASUS softvera na svoje računalo ili na računalo vašeg prijatelja ako putujete. 🙂 Na primjer, možete pritisnuti Fn i Del, End ili Page Down za kretanje kroz 10 različitih razina intenziteta za crvenu, zelenu i plavu boju pozadinskog osvjetljenja.

Iako se sve tipke na ASUS ROG Claymoreu^{(ASUS ROG Claymore)} mogu koristiti za makronaredbe, na njemu nema namjenskih makro tipki. Nekima se to možda ne sviđa, ali mi to volimo. Uostalom, možete snimiti makronaredbe i dodijeliti ih, na primjer, tipkama Fn. Ili, ako ste istinski predani igrač, možete uzeti dio tipkovnice Numpad i dodijeliti makronaredbe svim njezinim tipkama. Claymore igraća tipkovnica je modularna, a Numpad dio se može skinuti i ponovno pričvrstiti na lijevu stranu jezgrene tipkovnice. Postavljanje na ovaj način znači da lijevom rukom možete lako pristupiti svim makro tipkama koje ste konfigurirali na Numpadu^(Numpad) i nećete morati dizati desnu ruku od miša tijekom intenzivnih sesija igranja.

Dok sam imao ASUS ROG Claymore igraću tipkovnicu u rukama, koristio sam je za igranje puno igara. To se dogodilo tijekom zimskih praznika pa je i to pomoglo. 🙂 Moram reći da se ova tipkovnica odlično osjećala i radila je odlično u svim igrama koje sam igrao koristeći ju. Svidjelo mi se u Skyrimu^(Skyrim) , svidjelo mi se u Mad Maxu^{(Mad Max)} , i apsolutno mi se svidjelo u League of Legends .

ASUS ROG Claymore je odlična mehanička tipkovnica, ona će vas natjerati da se zaljubite u nju bez obzira jeste li igrač ili ne.^{(The ASUS ROG Claymore is a great mechanical keyboard, one that will make you fall in love with it regardless if you are a gamer or not.)}

Softver ASUS ROG Armory

ASUS korisnicima ^(ASUS)Claymorea^(Claymore) pruža softver pod nazivom ROG Armory^{(ROG Armoury)} , dizajniran da ponudi jednostavan pristup kontrolama personalizacije tipkovnice. Unutar ovog softvera možete stvoriti i spremiti do pet različitih profila postavki za svoju tipkovnicu, možete prilagoditi svjetlosne efekte, možete snimati makronaredbe, a možete provjeriti i nekoliko statističkih podataka.

Iako nudi osnove i jedino je sredstvo za detaljnu kontrolu svjetlosnih efekata, moramo reći da nismo baš oduševljeni softverom ROG Armory . ^{(ROG Armoury)}Tvrtka bi trebala uložiti više truda u poboljšanje.

Za početak, mogućnost stvaranja i korištenja samo pet profila čini se premalo za pravog igrača. Moglo bi se reći da možete izraditi profil tipkovnice za MMO^(MMOs) ( mnogoigrajuće online^{(Massively Multiplayer Online)} igre), jedan za RTS ( Strategija u stvarnom vremenu^{(Real-Time Strategy)} ), jedan za akcijske ili borbene igre i tako dalje. Međutim, pravi igrač će vjerojatno koristiti profil u League of Legends , drugi profil u Skyrimu^(Skyrim) , treći u StarCraftu^(StarCraft) i tako dalje. Najbolji način za to bio bi dopustiti stvaranje neograničenog broja profila u softveru, čak i ako tipkovnica može pohraniti samo pet njih u svoju hardversku flash memoriju.

A tu je i statistika koju dobivate od ROG Armory^{(ROG Armoury)} . Ako pogledate snimku zaslona u nastavku, vidjet ćete da ćete dobiti samo neke brojke koje pokazuju koliko ste puta pritisnuli nekoliko tipki i vaš KPM ( tipka u minuti^{(Keystroke Per Minute)} ). Ne dobivate pojedinosti o svim tipkama na tipkovnici. Što je još gore, morate otvoriti ROG Armory^{(ROG Armoury)} i pritisnuti tipku Record prije nego što softver počne snimati statistiku. To nije baš jednostavno za korisnika ako nas pitate.

A tu je i izgled ove aplikacije: softver ROG Armory^{(ROG Armoury)} izgleda zastarjelo i neuglađeno. Ako pogledate kako izgleda drugi sličan softver iz konkurencije, shvatit ćete zašto to kažemo.

ASUS ROG Armory softver radi ono što bi trebao, ali mogao bi biti puno uglađeniji.^{(The ASUS ROG Armoury software does what it's supposed to do, but it could be a lot more polished.)}

Za i protiv

Ima mnogo dobrih stvari za reći o ASUS ROG Claymoreu^{(ASUS ROG Claymore)} :

• To je sjajna tipkovnica koja će zadovoljiti potrebe i želje kako igrača tako i daktilografa.
• Možete ga kupiti s četiri različite vrste mehaničkih Cherry MX prekidača: crvenom, crnom, plavom i smeđom.
• Pozadinsko osvjetljenje na njemu je onoliko dobro koliko može - svaku tipku možete individualno prilagoditi i postaviti je da koristi bilo koju boju koju želite, a također ćete dobiti više od nekoliko svjetlosnih efekata za igru.
• Modularan je, što znači da dio Numpada^(Numpad) možete odvojiti ili pričvrstiti na osnovnu tipkovnicu. Numpad možete pričvrstiti i na lijevu stranu tipkovnice, ne samo na desnu.
• Na njega se vrlo lako naviknuti, jer ne uključuje dodatne makro tipke, a koristi standardni ANSI raspored, koji je najčešći raspored tipki na zapadnim tipkovnicama.
• Ima ugrađeni flash memorijski modul koji može snimati i pohranjivati ​​postavke i prilagodbe koje napravite, neovisno o softveru na vašem računalu.
• Okvir od aluminijske legure je vrlo čvrst, a dizajn Mayan koji koristi ASUS na njemu izgleda sjajno.

S negativne strane, postoji samo jedan aspekt koji bismo željeli da ASUS poboljša: njihov ROG Armory^{(ROG Armoury)} softver. Vjerujemo da mu nedostaje kvaliteta i da ima manje mogućnosti prilagodbe od onoga što nudi konkurencija. Unatoč tome, obavit će svoj posao i pokriveni ste za osnovne potrebe koje možda imate.

Presuda

ASUS ROG Claymore je iznimna tipkovnica koja radi besprijekorno i izgleda zapanjujuće. Da, to je samo tipkovnica, ali je sjajna i jako ćete uživati ​​u njenoj upotrebi. Mehanički prekidači, aluminijski okvir, dizajn inspiriran^{(Mayan-inspired)} Majama, potpuna kontrola koju imate nad svjetlosnim efektima i bojama, svi zajedno rade vrlo dobro i pružit će vam sjajno iskustvo. Ova tipkovnica je odličan izbor za sve. Nije ni važno hoćete li ga za igranje igrica, tipkanje, uredski rad bilo koje vrste i tako dalje. ASUS ROG Claymore će odgovarati potrebama svih korisnika koji ga kupe .

Reviewing the ASUS ROG Claymore - One of the best keyboards money can buy!

The first time we heard about ASUS' Republic of Gamers mechanical keyboard with RGB іllumіnation was in 2015. And a year later, in late 2016, ASUS finally lаunched theіr ASUS ROG Claymorе. It iѕ a gaming keyboard that awes and wows anyone looking at it, with full spectrυm RGB lighting on each key individually, fully programmable keys and with Aura Synс suрport (a technology that syncs your lighting settings across devіces). In addition, it іs also a mоdular keyboard, meaning that you can attach or detach the Numpad on or off the main keyboard body. We've had іt to рlay during the holidays and we'd like to share with you everything wе've found about it, in this revіew:

Unboxing the ASUS ROG Claymore

The ASUS ROG Claymore gaming keyboard comes in a premium looking box made from glossy black cardboard. Its front side is home to a large full-size picture of the keyboard you're going to find inside, together with the Republic of Gamers logo.

Turn the box upside down and you'll see all the features and hardware specifications that make this gaming keyboard truly special, like the Cherry MX switches it uses, the full spectrum RGB illumination you get on each switch or the detachable numerical keypad.

Open the box and you'll find the ASUS ROG Claymore gaming keyboard and its detachable Numpad, both tucked inside separate black velvet bags.

Underneath the keyboard, you will also find a braided USB to microUSB cable, two Republic of Gamers stickers, a quick start guide, the warranty card and a welcome message to the ROG family.

The unboxing experience you get from the ASUS ROG Claymore gaming keyboard is very pleasant and serves very well its purpose of making you even more curious about what your new keyboard will be like. This is definitely a premium device.

Hardware specifications

The ASUS ROG Claymore is a gaming keyboard that uses mechanical switches. They are Cherry MX RGB switches, and you can choose between their red, black, blue or brown variations, depending on your preferences for actuation distance and force, or the noise they will make. The RGB part of the switches refers to the fact that they can light up in any color you want them to, individually. And thanks to a technology called Aura, the ASUS ROG Claymore can also sync its lighting effects with those you have set on other ASUS illuminated devices you own.

Regardless of the type of switches you prefer, ASUS promises you that each of them will last you for 50 million keystrokes. That's quite a lot, and if you'll read this article, you'll see that the switches on ASUS ROG Claymore should last for many years.

The ASUS ROG Claymore gaming keyboard also features anti-ghosting tech and so it ensures that every keystroke you make is detected and recorded by the keyboard, no matter how many other keys are pressed at the same time.

Being a device dedicated to gamers, the ASUS ROG Claymore keyboard also offers plenty of customization and controls for the way its keys work, for the lighting and for the macro settings. One thing we appreciated is that it has a built-in flash memory which means that you can customize your keyboard without using the software provided by ASUS. You can use key combinations to change the way it lights, to record and use macros or even to overclock your processor or RAM memory, and to control the fans speed, if your motherboard is also made by ASUS.

The keyboard connects to your PC using a 1.8 meters (71 inches) long braided microUSB to USB 2.0 detachable cable, which you can arrange on the back of the keyboard to come out either to the left or to the right.

Because the ASUS ROG Claymore is a mechanical keyboard, and because its frame is made from metal, it's not a lightweight device. It weighs 770 grams or 27 ounces and it's 360 x 145 x 45 mm (14.17 x 5.70 x 1.77 inches) in length, width, and thickness. All these without taking into consideration the detachable Numpad part. With the Numpad attached, the keyboard weighs 888 grams or 31 ounces and it is 450 x 145 x 45 mm (17.72 x 5.70 x 1.77 inches) in length, width, and thickness.

In terms of operating systems that it supports, the ASUS ROG Claymore gaming keyboard works with Windows 10, Windows 8.1 and Windows 7.

You can find the full set of specifications of this keyboard here: ASUS ROG Claymore.

Using the ASUS ROG Claymore keyboard

Let's start with the basics: the ASUS ROG Claymore keyboard uses mechanical switches placed on top of an aluminum alloy metal frame. This frame is heavy if you are used to plastic keyboards, but it's lightweight if you compare it to other mechanical gaming keyboards like the Razer Blackwidow. Sure, the RGB colors will take all the fame, but to make the Claymore even more pretty and attractive to gamers, ASUS also took care of how the keyboard's frame looks like, and so it printed a Mayan-inspired design on its surface, which we must say it looks very nice.

We previously mentioned that you can buy the ASUS ROG Claymore with red, black, blue or brown Cherry MX switches. That's a wide palette of options and will fit any gamer's wishes and preferences. We're saying that because choosing the right switches for you is extremely important. Everyone has its own typing style and some people are willing to deal with more noise for the best performance possible, while others prefer less noise.

The ASUS ROG Claymore keyboard that we tested had Cherry MX RGB brown switches. "Brownies" have an additional tactile feedback when compared to black or red switches, and are also the less clicky siblings of the family, meaning that they don't make as much noise as the blues or the greens do. Because of these features, brown Cherry MX switches are very popular in the world of gamers and are also a very good choice for people who write a lot on their keyboard.

The keys on the ASUS ROG Claymore are easy to find and pressing them feels just right. They don't require too much force, but they aren't easy to press either. The brown switches are moderate in every way, and that's a good thing. Honestly, typing on this keyboard is a pleasure!

The ASUS ROG Claymore is also very easy to get accustomed to because the layout of the keys on the frame uses the default ANSI placement model. That means that you have a long left Shift key available and that the Enter key is rectangular. This is the layout used on the wide majority of western keyboards so there's a big possibility that it's the same as your previous keyboard.

All the keys on the ASUS ROG Claymore are individually backlit with RGB LEDs. That means that you can customize the light color to anything you want in an infinity of variations. It's a modder's dream actually. 🙂 There are some predefined effects that you can apply to the lighting of the keyboard, like Breathing, Color Cycle, Wave, Ripple, Reactive, Starry Nightand Quicksand, and you can also create your own custom effects to match the games you play or simply the visual appearance you like. You can view a demo of all these modes in the video below.

Most of the effects are configured and controlled from the ROG Armoury software provided by ASUS. However, the Claymore keyboard can also be configured directly by pressing specific keys. Although the controls you have access to are more basic, they will likely be enough to customize the keyboard as you like, without having to resort to installing the ASUS software on your computer, or on your friend's computer if you're traveling. 🙂 For instance, you can press Fn and Del, End or Page Down to cycle through 10 different levels of intensity for the red, green and blue backlight colors.

Although all the keys on the ASUS ROG Claymore can be used for macros, there are no dedicated macro keys on it. Some may not like that, but we love it. After all, you can record macros and assign them to the Fn keys for instance. Or, if you are a truly dedicated gamer, you can take the Numpad part of the keyboard and assign macros to all its keys. The Claymore gaming keyboard is modular, and the Numpad part can be taken off and reattached to the left side of the core keyboard. Placing it this way means that you can have easy access with your left hand to all the macro keys you configured on the Numpad, and you won't have to raise your right hand from the mouse during intense gaming sessions.

During the time I had the ASUS ROG Claymore gaming keyboard in my hands, I used it to play lots of games. This happened during the winter holidays so that helped too. 🙂 I must say that this keyboard felt great and worked great in all the games I played using it. I liked it in Skyrim, I liked it in Mad Max, and I absolutely loved it in League of Legends.

The ASUS ROG Claymore is a great mechanical keyboard, one that will make you fall in love with it regardless if you are a gamer or not.

The ASUS ROG Armoury software

ASUS provides Claymore users with software called ROG Armoury, designed to offer easy access to the keyboard personalization controls. From inside this software, you can create and save up to five different settings profiles for your keyboard, you can customize the lighting effects, you can record macros, and you can also check a few statistics.

Although it offers the basics and it is the only means to control the lighting effects in detail, we must say that we are not very thrilled about the ROG Armoury software. The company should invest some more effort into improving it.

For starters, being able to create and use only five profiles seems too few for a true gamer. You could say that you can create a keyboard profile for MMOs (Massively Multiplayer Online games), one for RTS (Real-Time Strategy) games, one for action or combat games, and so on. However, a true gamer will probably use a profile in League of Legends, the second profile in Skyrim, a third one in StarCraft and so on. The best way to go here would have been to allow unlimited profiles to be created in the software, even if the keyboard can store only five of them in its hardware flash memory.

And then there's statistics you get from ROG Armoury. If you'll take a look at the screenshot below, you'll see that you get only some numbers showing the number of times you pressed a few keys and your KPM (Keystroke Per Minute). You don't get details about all the keys on the keyboard. What's even worse is that you have to open ROG Armoury and press the Record button before the software starts recording statistics. That's not exactly user-friendly if you ask us.

And then there's the looks of this app: the ROG Armoury software looks outdated and unpolished. If you take a look at what other similar software from the competition looks like, you'll understand why we say this.

The ASUS ROG Armoury software does what it's supposed to do, but it could be a lot more polished.

Pros and cons

There are plenty of good things to say about the ASUS ROG Claymore:

• It's a great keyboard that will fulfill the needs and desires of both gamers and typists alike.
• You can buy it with four different types of mechanical Cherry MX switches: red, black, blue and brown.
• The backlighting on it is as good as it gets - you can customize each key individually and set it to use any color you want, plus you also get more than a few lighting effects to play with.
• It's modular, meaning that you can detach or attach the Numpad part to the core keyboard. You can attach the Numpad to the left side of the keyboard also, not only to its right.
• It's very easy to get accustomed to, because it doesn't include additional macro keys, and it uses the standard ANSI layout, which is the most common key layout on Western keyboards.
• It has a built-in flash memory module which can record and store the settings and customizations that you make, independently from the software on your computer.
• The aluminum alloy frame feels very sturdy and the Mayan design used by ASUS on it looks great.

On the negative side, there's only one aspect we would like ASUS to improve: their ROG Armoury software. We believe that it lacks in quality and has fewer customization options than what the competition offers. Even so, it will do its job and you're covered for the basic needs that you might have.

Verdict

The ASUS ROG Claymore is an exceptional keyboard that works flawlessly and looks stunning. Yes, it's only a keyboard, but it's a great one and you will very much enjoy using it. The mechanical switches, the aluminum frame, the Mayan-inspired design, the complete control you have on the lighting effects and colors, all work very well together and will offer you a great experience. This keyboard is a great choice for everyone. It doesn't even matter whether you want it for gaming, typing, office work of any kind and so on. The ASUS ROG Claymore will fit the needs of all the users who purchase it.
