The mechanical keys on G710+ deliver gaming-grade responsiveness and tactile feedback superior to rubber-domed keys. With an actuation force and distance of 45 g and 4 mm, respectively, the keys are optimized for rapid command entry. Plus, the keys have been tested for durability to a 50 million cycle life. Quiet, non-clicking key switches and a built-in dampening ring underneath each keycap significantly reduce the distracting noise coming from your keypresses€” without sacrificing responsiveness. Easily locate keys€”even in low light. The entire keyboard is backlit in white LED light and adjustable to one of four brightness levels, plus €œOff€. For better visibility of the WASD and arrow keys, their brightness can be adjusted independently from the rest of the keyboard. Convenient one-touch controls give you instant access to volume control and media playback without needing to press a function key. With three macros per G-key, you can configure up to 18 individual functions per game.* Harness the power of G-keys to configure single key presses, complex macros or intricate LUA scripts on the fly and quickly simplify actions to stay immersed in your game and never lose a step. You can even create macros on the fly. You€™re about to record a record high number of perfect headshots when an accidental keystroke sends you on an unplanned and unwanted trip to your desktop. Don€™t let this kind of mistake ruin your streak€”easily disable the Windows key with one button so your game won€™t be interrupted
