SteelSeries has introduced a new mechanical gaming keyboard the 6Gv2, and a high-end 7h headset. Designed with 18-karat gold-plated mechanical switches, the keyboard offers quicker reaction times and advanced key combinations for more Actions Per Minute.

SteelSeries 7G, the new keyboard utilizes a buffer-system created specifically for gaming, supporting as many simultaneous key presses as there are keys on the keyboard. The "anti-ghosting" features allows users in first person shooter games to move, crouch, aim, fire and even check the scoreboard, simultaneously.

We have been watching professional teams such as Fnatic, SK Gaming, Evil Geniuses and others win grand slam tournaments with the 7G as their weapon of choice and have seen it recognized as one of the most impressive performance keyboards on the gaming market. Keeping that rockstar mentality, we designed the slimmed down SteelSeries 6Gv2 to pack the same punch without compromising response time, durability or performance, said Bruce Hawver, SteelSeries CEO.

The new keyboard will incorporate SteelSeries Media Controls allowing quick access to volume, mute and other audio controls. Features not present in the keyboard, compared to the SteelSeries 7G, are the audio ports for headphone-in and microphone-out, the two USB ports as well as the removable plastic hand rest.
