HyperX gets into the growing 60% keyboard game with the Alloy Origins 60. Based on the same design language as the popular Alloy Origins and Alloy Origins Core, it cuts things down physically while retaining the feature set the company uses to attract gamers, typists, and fans of the brand alike.

Like many other gaming 60% keyboards, no remapable function key. It's a rip if you want to move the fn key one to the left to add arrow keys.

I own the Alloy Origins Core and I absolutely love it. TKL is the perfect size for me. This 60% one though? ....Yeah, I think I'd have a hard time adjusting. On the plus side, it does come with PBT keycaps, whereas the Core doesn't. At least their pudding keycaps are reasonably priced.

Next step is a keyboard a la ZX spectrum, with 5 functions per key.

P.S. In my opinion mechanical switches are crap of the past. Optical switches is the way to go.
my 2 cents.

If there's a version with the HyperX Aqua switches (equivalent to Cherry MX Browns), then its a surebuy for me.
