Some gaming keyboards are meant to be luxurious, with programmable macros, full-metal construction, and thick keycaps. Others are meant to be useful, with optical switches, ultra-fast response rates, and lots of customization. MSI’s newest keyboard — the GK71 Sonic — is meant to be bright.
Sure, the GK71 Sonic offers options like their new 35-gram switches and boasts a 1,000Hz response rate, but none of these are what really stands out about this mechanical keyboard . Instead, the main attraction is the incredibly bright and colorful RGB array, and the keycaps that accentuate it.
