Thermaltake have entered into the high end peripheral gaming market with firm footing. While Logitech, Steelseries and Razer might not be that concerned just yet, I am positive they will be watching them out of the corner of their eyes over the coming year as they expand their ranges into the elusive ‘hardcore' gaming sector. This is a very lucrative market for the big players.
The Challenger Keyboard is a solid enough design, Thermaltake haven't cut any corners with this product and it delivers a top notch gaming experience while ensuring the product is built to a high enough standard to survive long term abuse. The design might not be to everyone's taste but the attention to detail with braided cabling, gold connectors, and even a hand cooling fan system will be sure to grab some headlines. It certainly caught our attention when we were told about it.
The Challenger Pro Keyboard is a considerably more expensive product and while pricing on either has not yet been sent to us, we would expect this product to cost between £60 and £70 which is a pretty reasonable price point, especially for such a loaded bundle. You get two sets of keys for specific locations, the tool to remove them, a fan, several bags, removable, braided cabling and a fully dynamic lighting system with macro functionality.
Both products deserve a high rating because as gaming products I am very confident they will satisfy the target audience. These are fully kitted out products and a great leap for Thermaltake into a very exciting marketplace.
KitGuru says: Pricing will be coming shortly but expect to pay £30-40 for the standard board and £60-70 for the Pro version.
