Product details

The ultra-customizable K5, Version 2. One of the most customizable gaming keyboards in the world - the first gaming keyboard equipped with MX2A switches from CHERRY. The K5V2 is the next level in design and performance. The world's most trusted mechanical keyboard switch is now even better. This is the evolution of the CHERRY MX, which is used in over 60 million keyboards worldwide. With a precisely applied premium lubricant and an innovative spring design, the MX2A offers smoother actuation, improved acoustics, and a lifespan of 100 million keystrokes. And if you want to try different switch characteristics to find the perfect touch-and-feel: The switches are hot-swappable, allowing you to easily replace them without any soldering.

Customizing your keyboard has never been easier. With the K5V2, everything is interchangeable, from switches, stabilizers, and keycaps to cables, frames, and even the small plate for the logo. This keyboard has a 65% layout, providing you with an extremely compact design without compromising the comfort of the arrow keys. Your keyboard is only as fast as its ability to register keystrokes - regardless of how often it reports to the computer per second. The K5V2 features super scan technology that scans all keys every half millisecond.

    The Cherry Xtrfy K5V2 Compact made a good impression when tested, and the new MX2A Red RGB switches even made a very good impression. The compact keyboard is well made and looks rather plain in black. However, the keyboard can also be customised in the configurator and many components are available individually...
