Tt eSports Meka G1

Thermaltake strips the gaming keyboard to its essentials with the Meka G1, transforming it into the rare model that truly excels as a keyboard. But with almost no additional functionality, it won't appeal to all hard-core gamers.

Mechanical key switches. Heavy-duty construction. Traditional keyboard layout. Built-in USB, audio hub

Expensive. Few standard gaming keyboard features. Non-clicky keys. No left Windows key

Tt eSPORTS MEKA G1 Keyboard Review

As the popularity of the eSports movement continues to rise, more and more manufacturers are looking to the demand for quality PC peripherals as a market to be served. Thermaltake, who have long catered to the PC gaming enthusiast, have reacted to this...

Pretty much spot-on here; Cherry's MX switches are the most common mechanical keyswitches on the market, and are quite well regarded

Tt eSPORTS MEKA G1 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

Today we'll be taking a look at the Thermaltake eSPORTS MEKA G1 gaming keyboard. As I'm sure you're aware, Thermaltake is well known for its computer cases, high end CPU and GPU cooling systems and power supplies. Recently Thermaltake decided to hit...

Military grade cable ; Non-Slip Feet ; 50,000,000 keystrokes before failure ; Gold plated connectors ; Solid design ; 8x quicker than a standard keyboard ; 1000hz polling race ; 7 multimedia hot-keys

Letters starting to wear

The Thermaltake MEKA G1 keyboard is not the fanciest of all keyboards, but its simple design and response time has put all other keyboards I've ever used for gaming to shame. I would have to say that this MEKA G1 is by far the best keyboard I have ever...

Good Keyboard

The keys will actuate HALFWAY through their total travel length. That means you don't need to fully depress the key in order to actuate it. This may or may not be a pro or con for you. -I do tend to type very firmly, so the mechanical keyboard really...

Mechanical switches (Cherry MX Black) ; VERY sturdy ; The wrist-rest is nice ; The cable is VERY, VERY, VERY thick and heavy, and definitely reflects good build quality

This is my first mechanical keyboard. I have been using a laptop keyboard for many years, so making the transition from membrane keyboards to mechanical ones has presented a few challenges. Namely ; Getting used to the travel distance of each keypress....

Excellent keyboard

This is my first mechanical keyboard. Everyone says mechanical keyboards are the best, so I had to try one out. I game and type a lot, so I got this keyboard with Cherry Black keys. I love this keyboard! It truly is great for gaming and typing. I heard...

Very high quality, built like a tank

Not enough media controls. Could be a pro or a con depending on what you want. Keys are slightly harder to depress than normal membrane keys

Fantastic Keyboard

Worth the money, especially with the current sale and rebate. Highly recommended.

Great keyboard to both type and game on. I was not expecting this keyboard to be so much better than my previous keyboard. I do have to say that I am a believer that mechanical keyboards are the best keyboards for teh money

None so far

Excellent

The numlock/caplock lights on the top right are a SUPER bright red, turn them on and look at them closely and it will burn straight through your retina into your soul!! seriously it's bright Backspace is squeeky

Fast Response Time (keys register quick) ; Solid Build ; Strong Cable ; All keys register, here's proof: avfnsdhjkl (pressed at once) ; Don't need to bottom out keys for them to be pressed ; Includes an extra USB cable and 3.5mm cables to allow you to...

Loud!! If you're up late at night, everyone else is going to know ; Expensive, I don't see why the price is this high.. it's like paying $1.50 per key ; Not that comfortable for regular typing ; Wrist rest isn't that comfortable either, I feel like...
