They've made keyboards for a while, as I recall.

Those scroll wheels are silly.

The saddest part is that so people lust for keyboard s like that. I just don't see the appeal.

Looks fairly good to me, honestly. I've went through MX and use a HHKB, but a full-size with sound scroll wheel is fine for gaming. It doesn't have wasted space nor silly aesthetic features.

It doesn't have an insane aesthetic, but it does still have a pretty dumb one. (But obviously it is a ll personal preference)

My only thing is that this seems to be one of those iOne keyboards, which from what I've read, isn't nearly as quality as Costar boards.

I mean, mad catz hasn't even come out with any mechanical boards, as far as I'm aware... (I do have to admit though, that several years ago, when I was far younger, I thought the Saitek, now owned by MadCatz Cyborg keyboard was pretty sweet.)

This is news? I've been seeing these keyboards broken, resold for parts for year(s).

iOne indeed (nope, Gigybyte doesn't really make it, as proposed by OP) and a **** one. Not all iOne products are utter crap, e.g., CM Storm QF Pro wasn't bad quality-wise AFAIK (people only had problems with connectors or NKRO-over-USB implementation).

It's just news to me, I had no idea. I was looking at a streamer's info page on Twitch, and trying to find their keyboard on their set up list. I had to click on the link for like every part before figuring out that the "gigabyte" thing was their keyboard, not their GPU or Mobo.

Funny, I saw a Gigabyte keyboard at one of the recycling centres today. It said "membrane technology" so I didn't bother, though.
