All switches compatible with the Cherry MX brand will fit. With the included pliers, you can remove the switches and fit the ones that suit you better. The modularity of the ROG Strix Flare II keyboard allows you to swap out all, or just specific switches.

To activate, you need to overcome a resistance of 40 grams (1.8 mm) but to press to the stop (4 mm) you need to exert a force equal to 55 g. The switches are linear and thus are best suited for gaming use.

These are purely mechanical, not opto-mechanical, compared to the RX-labelled range. Asus used theirs with the ROG NX Red designation. So if you press a key anywhere, it responds just as accurately as if you were pressing it right in the middle.īelow the keycaps is one of the most important parts of the keyboard, the switches. There is a switch in the middle and a support on either side. But if any of the above doesn’t suit you, you can replace them easily and without fear with the pliers designed for the keycaps.Īll larger keys such as Backspace, Enter, Shift or Space are set in a three-point pattern for stability. The key descriptions are laser burned, but without Czech or Slovak characters. Due to the material used, the keycaps are rough to the touch, which makes your fingers not slip and gives you the confidence of a proper actuation. The top part of the key (keycap) is made of double PBT plastic, which is durable even under intensive use. It takes a considerable amount of force to bend. Underneath the keys is an aluminum backplate that stiffens the body of the keyboard so that it doesn’t show any signs of flexing when you’re gaming or typing. There are 112 keys, six of which are multimedia and two with a specific function. But it is not impossible that this will change as in the case of the ROG Strix Scope RX keyboard. Asus does not offer the Flare II Animate keyboard with the European layout. This layout is characterized by a single-line Enter with an extended left Shift.

There is only one type of key layout to choose from, and that’s American.
