SteelSeries - Apex Pro TKL Wireless (2023)

Pc tower itself, probably around 2K as a very lowball. I would say 1200, but inflation and tariffs (if you’re American) have raised prices along with low availability on parts. THAT is for building a pc. Prebuilt I’d say around 1500-2.3k. The minimum size monitors would be 27 inch Monitors. Those are around 150 (MSI) - to 500 (Samsung like mine). Both can do 4k, both can do 200+ fps My keyboard is a Steelseries apex pro, it was 200 at the time. My mouse was around like 40 or 50 bucks, a g5 hero with customizable weights and a couple extra buttons and a dpi button. You can get both a keyboard and mouse for under 200 if you’re on a budget. And there’s half keyboards that fps players use that are cheaper.

SteelSeries worked for me... Apex Pro keyboard and Aerox 5 mouse....w Novo Pro. Their GG and Sonar worked well with little bloat, everything served a function (key actuation points were important for me).

I very much like the Hall Effect one I got from SS. Apex pro I think? Can't remember but it was 'spensive. Adjustable actuation distance on the keys is great.

LCD and OLED screens on keyboards are dumb and useless depending on your positioning. Had a SteelSeries keyboard with an OLED screen to which I never used for the 7 years I used it.

I used the fun60 as an example and specifically asked for no one to tell stats on the largest 3 analog kb companies, I literally have an analog rn but it has shit build quality and is falling apart so I want an upgrade, and if I will upgrade I don't want to waste money on a razer, wooting, or steelseries that are overpriced asf, I want to know if there are any genuine downsides to the "budget" analog keyboards compared to the primary companies, for perspective I currently have a 2023 Apex Pro TKL

performance wise, steelseries does have some pretty close numbers to wooting, but I wouldn't buy from them again because of their terrible build quality, my stabs are literally falling off of my steelseries apex pro tkl

I have steelseries apex pro and its the same for me. currently considering to buy new keyboard because the backspace sometimes not registering keypress. wont buy another steelseries

What the poster above implied is that stock of course contactless are the smoothest. When you lubricate a good mechanical switch, however... I beg to differ. I've laid hands and used Wooting HE keebs and Steelseries Apex Pro and I still feel my lubed Marshmallows are smoother (and sound several degrees of magnitude better). Thomas has great reviews and a soothing voice but can be mildly infuriating with some opinions. However, they're his opinions and he's entitled to them and he's mostly correct :)

SteelSeries Apex. It's big AF and I like it.

Bro you don't know what you are talking about. Wootings keyboard or the steel series apex Pro is a game changer and a completely different experience than standard mechanical keyboards with the classic red or brown switches. If you are a serious cs player you absolutely should consider buying such a keyboard instead of the other trash gaming keyboards that exist.

Steel Series apex Pro. Amazing switches and the same technology as the wooting keyboards. Any other mechanical keyboards suck in comparison. I used cherry reds before for over 10 years.

Second this I got my Apex Pro in near perfect condition for like 50Euro from some mum off FB marketplace bc her kid didn't like it, there was so many good deals on keyboards
