silentiumpc gk650k review b

   SPC Gear (SilentiumPC) is clearly not the first brand I’d think to check out if I wanted a new keyboard and I’m certain the same applies for most of you reading these lines. Still, I have to admit that they’ve move up the ladder of popularity these past 2 years or so and now have a somewhat complete line of PC cases and peripherals. When it comes to quality and features the GK650K Omnis is an actually a good example of what you can expect from their products. RGB illumination is very good (both in terms of brightness and available modes), the Kailh Red RGB switches work well (I imagine the same stands true about the brown and blue models) and the detachable magnetic wrist rest with the volume wheel are both fine additions. The same applies for the SPC Gear control software since it’s very easy to navigate and use.


   One of the cons some EU based manufacturers have is product availability and so even though you can get your hands on the GK650K Omnis inside the EU for around 85Euros it’s not available anywhere else (even in the EU availability doesn’t seem to be that great). With that out of the way I really have nothing bad to say about the GK650K Omnis. Yes, it may not be the most complete keyboard in the market today and its somewhat limited availability is by no means ideal but it does deliver where it matters and for that it gets the Golden Award.
