Logitech G316 X 98 Wired Mechanical Gaming Keyboard – Black Compact Control. Game-Ready Performance.

Its near-instantaneous 8000Hz report rate delivers responsive input, while hot-swappable tactile mechanical switches let you personalise the typing experience without replacing the keyboard. A gasket-mounted structure and sound-dampening layers produce a smooth, satisfying feel and distinctive “thocky” sound.
