Tastiera compatta CHERRY K5V2 gaming USB QWERTY inglese nero 67 tasti RGB LED

The CHERRY K5V2 is a compact 65% gaming keyboard with 67 mechanical keys, per-key RGB illumination and a 2 m wired USB connection. Developed through the collaboration between CHERRY and Xtrfy, this keyboard combines German engineering and Swedish design and is built for players who need a durable, customizable input device. It comes equipped with hot-swappable CHERRY MX2A Red switches, a metal plate construction, sound-dampening foam layers and PCB-mounted stabilizers.

Advantages

The K5V2 offers hot-swappable CHERRY MX2A Red switches for smoother actuation, improved acoustics and an expected lifespan of up to 100 million keystrokes. Its highly modular design lets you swap switches, stabilizers, keycaps, cable, frame and logo plate without soldering. Super-scan technology scans all keys every 0.5 ms to reduce input detection time, and advanced RGB implementation provides strong illumination with an optional USB 3 mode for boosted lighting. The compact 65% layout retains arrow keys while saving desk space, and on-board controls allow configuration of RGB, macros and media functions without additional software.

Suitable for

• Competitive gaming where low input latency and reliable switches matter
• Users who want a compact desktop setup but still require arrow keys
• Gamers and enthusiasts who customize switches, keycaps and aesthetics
• Environments requiring durable, long-lasting mechanical keyboards
