You get what you pay for!
I had been buying cheap keyboards all my life, and now that I’m an adult with adult money, I wanted something nice, so I bought this keyboard. First off, it’s a big chunky thing, which makes me happy. Secondly, it comes with a program so that you can program profiles for various games, seasons, moods, etc. My only con about this is it is not wireless, which is not a deal breaker, just what I am used to having. The keys give proper click clack but on a slightly quieter scale. Keystrokes are quick, with no lag or stutter. I absolutely love this keyboard and the functions that would take an hour to list.

Great keyboard
I will start of by saying I have never before owned a gaming keyboard, so my review comes from a guy using the stock keyboard with a computer to this.
It is a little loud if you don’t have headphones on, but it’s not very loud. The keys sit higher then a regular keyboard does. That being said, after a little bit of typing I am now perfectly used to the height. The individual programmable keys is amazing and not just rgb but the keys themselves can be reprogrammed to basically what ever you want.
It has a sturdy feel without being crazy heavy, I could almost take it with me as an extension for my laptop. The pass through USB built into the keyboard is awesome and I haven’t had any issues with it.
If you are a gamer but know very little about pc peripherals, this has a lower cost then many of the competitor brands of similar design and function. You can’t go wrong.

Works excellent!
I got this as a Fatherâs Day gift for my dad. I was hesitant at first because I wanted it to be a good size since he does gaming and has large hands. After ordering this and setting it up, itâs perfect. Itâs very easy to play his games with and also is the perfect size. He loves the color changing lights on the keyboard. It connected really fast to the computer and has had no problems since. This is a great keyboard at a great price.

Took some adjustments
I decided it was time to replace my 2 Razer Blackwidow Ultimate Stealth 2014 editions when they both started double keying letters when typing. Razer was no help.
These keyboards work well. Backlighting that can be customized with an app that I think has become standard with ASUS products.
It did take a little adjustment to the new keyboards though due to the slightly smaller size that what I have been using for years. I think the Razers just had bigger keys, not by much and one may not think it’s a big deal, but it does take time to “retrain” the muscle memory to a different keyboard.
Overall though, I feel like these should last as long, if not longer than the Razers. I bought 2 and replaced both my old ones at the same time. For the price, and the manufacturer, they are a great replacement for what I was using.

Good buy would recommend
I like the feel of the keyboard, the keystrokes are really nice, you get a lighter sound when hitting keys compared to other mech keyboards. Good weight doesnt feel like a cheap product, and price wasnt bad. Bought a Steel series a week before this one, I shoulda picked up 2 of these instead of the steel series. woulda saved some money.
Only thing I dont like is i wish it had a aluminum backplate

Amazing keyboard with lots of features
I had previously owned a razer keyboard that was clicky, load, and hard to press. I bought the Scope RX and the linear, optical switches actually feel so amazing. They’re pretty quiet as well. The stabilizers on the keyboard are cream of the crop and the key caps will not shift/move much. Because they’re red style switches, they’re really easy to press. Initially, I had problems adjusting to the keyboard and my wpm dropped from around 110-70
but after a day of using, I’ve adjusted it to 94 wpm with 100% accuracy. RGB on the board is really good and comes with a lot of cool patterns if that’s your thing. Overall, the quiet sound, easy presses, and solid build quality of the keyboard is a solid 5/5 from me.

ASUS ROG Strix Scope RX Gaming Mechanical Keyboard, Red Optical Switches
It was a perfect keyboard. It’s been over 6 months since I received it and I haven’t had any problems yet. The day I first bought it, I said I wouldn’t be able to use it because there’s a high chance you’ll touch the wrong letters. The keyboard was too sensitive. But once you get used to it, I’m sure you won’t be able to use another keyboard. Order now 🙂

The overall quality of the keyboard is REALLY good, the sound of the keyboard is very quiet and since it is an optical keyboard, it means that it wont have problems of multi-registering keys in the long run since the switch is not the same as other mechanical switches.
all of the keys work fine and the light of the RGB is great, its bright on the keycap and does not bleed onto the board itself or other keys.

Este teclado es considerado Tier S en varias Tier lista y la verdad es que lo puedo confirmar. Es bastante cómodo de usar, está conformado por materiales de buena calidad y las teclas son sumamente suaves.
La configuración de este teclado es optomecánico y la verdad es que se siente muy bien, el descenso de la tecla es completamente recto y no se traba al regresar. (Este teclado también tiene una variante con switches Cherry MX.)
En cuanto al RGB es uniforme y se ve muy bien, además de contar con bastantes configuraciones (es necesario instalar el software Armoury Create (sÃ, otro software más ;_;)).
Y finalmente, respecto al puerto USB extra y el cableado, se nota de calidad, sin embargo, es un cable bastante grueso y difÃcil de flexionar, por lo que recomendarÃa un abuela gestión de cables para que no se vea amontonado.
Teclado 100% recomendado, eso sÃ, recomiendo tener espacio suficiente para colocarlo.
