The premium keyboard market is a tough one, with many brands having some long-established product lines. Taking on the likes of Corsair, Razer, Logitech, Cherry and more in the £100+ price range is no easy task for any brand. However, MSI is ready to rumble, and with their long history of excellent PC gaming products, and a loyal fanbase, perhaps they can pull it off.

“Crafted around a strong aluminium base, the Vigor GK80 Gaming Keyboard provides gamers with a solid platform for years of intensive gaming. Also, provide ergonomic wrist rest for additional comfort for typing and gaming. The long USB cable is braided and the connector is gold-plated for extraordinary durability.” – MSI

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
