SteelSeries 7G Professional Gaming Keyboard Sports PS/2 Buffer System [90% More Responsive Than Standard Keyboards, According to SteelSeries]

SteelSeries have announced their new 7G Professional Gaming Keyboard which, according to the company’s press release, not only sets a new industry standard for pro-level gaming keyboards but but also increases responsiveness by more than 90 percent as well as offering 10 times more durability than typical keyboards.

Sporting a PS/2 buffer-system, the 7G Professional Gaming Keyboard, according to SteelSeries, ‘supports as many simultaneous key press commands as there are keys on the keyboard’ (which equates to one series combo in anyone’s book) and is designed specifically to deliver gaming-grade response times.

‘Professional gamers demand top quality equipment that provides durability and quicker response times,’ said Bruce Hawver, CEO of SteelSeries. ‘The time that we’ve invested into working with literally hundreds of gamers to design the SteelSeries 7G keyboard has resulted in a device that will truly change the way you play, limiting gamers only by their skill level – not their equipment.’

Endorsed by professional Counter-Strike player, Franz “mouz/gore” Burghardt (who, along with his team-mates from Mousesports recently won the ESL Masters championship at CeBIT in Germany) the SteelSeries 7G Professional Gaming Keyboard, which measures in at 18.9 x 9.8”, features no-click mechanical keys with 18K gold connectors each offering a lifetime up to 50 million keystrokes and comes with integrated headphone and microphone ports, a considerable 6.6ft of cable, two USB ports and shortcut media controls.

SteelSeries 7G Professional Gaming Keyboard retails for a around $150 inclusive of shipping though, at the time of writing, is already listed as being sold out.
