ASUS ROG ROG Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition 65% Gaming Keyboard
The ASUS ROG ROG Falchion Ace HFX ZywOo Edition is a 65% analog gaming keyboard built for competitive esports players who demand tournament-grade response times and precision. It combines ROG HFX Magnetic Switches with an 8000 Hz polling rate and Rapid Trigger feature to deliver near-instantaneous input recognition, backed by five-layer dampening for a refined typing feel.
Why this product
8000 Hz polling rate delivers 0.125 ms response
This is up to 8 times faster than standard keyboards, providing a measurable advantage in competitive play where every millisecond matters.
ROG HFX Magnetic Switches with customizable actuation
Actuation can be adjusted between 0.1 and 4.0 mm, allowing fine control over key response without physical switch replacement.
Rapid Trigger toggle for instant key repeat
A dedicated switch on the rear panel activates the fastest typing response mode, with WASD keys enabled by default for gaming.
Five-layer dampening absorbs keystroke noise
Two PORON and three silicone layers work together with the silicone gasket mount to minimize pinging and vibration for a cushioned feel.
Dual USB-C ports for flexible setup
Enables quick switching between two PCs and offers neater cable management options on your desk.
