How Much Does it Cost?
The ASUS TUF Gaming K3 RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboard is available right now from most major retailers. Stock is a little all over on Amazon, but prices should be around £99.99. That’s a pretty competitive price, not a bargain, but it’s certainly good value given the brand name, build quality, etc.
Overview
I really like the ASUS TUF Gaming K3, it’s a pretty straight forward approach to a high-end keyboard. They’ve not gone crazy with the design and features, and it really just delivers what you would expect from a quality keyboard. While it is a gaming product, it’s quite understated too, so you could have it in the office and not look out of place… assuming you keep the RGB in a sensible mode of course.
Build Quality
It is TUF, and it is TOUGH, and that’s really the whole point of it. It feels robust, the keys are sturdy feeling, the cable and cable braiding are thick and durable, and even the rubber grips are pretty hard-wearing. If you’re a heavy typer or just a compulsive rage quitter, the keyboard should fair better than your average K/D ratio.
Added Value
It’s the little details on this keyboard. It’s understated, but not when you look closely. The custom rubber grip design on the bottom, and actually, all of the underside looks fantastic. The slick logo, the anodised aluminium, the feature-rich RGB lighting, macro engine, multimedia controls, massive wrist rest. It’s got everything you would find on more expensive gaming keyboards.
Should I Buy One?
If you’re looking for a keyboard that can withstand a bit more punishment, and is going to give you all the thrills you would expect from a modern gaming mechanical keyboard, the ASUS TUF Gaming K3 is an excellent choice!
