ROG NX V2 Mechanical Switches

Storm - Refined Clicky

ROG NX Storm V2 mechanical switches utilise composite POM material for the stem and PC housing to provide ultrasmooth and tactile keystrokes, and a walled-stem design enhances stability and prevents dust intrusion. Each switch is tuned and pre-lubed to ensure crisp, clicky keystrokes.

• 1.8 mm Actuation Point
• 65 gf Tactile Force
• 25% Click Ratio

Speed Tap Mode

When activated, Speed Tap mode prioritises the latest input and automatically releases the previous one when two keys are pressed. This means that in FPS games, pressing two opposing directional keys (e.g., A and D) will no longer cause the in-game character to stop moving. Instead, directional changes can now be made immediately without having to release the previous key, eliminating any time gap for counter-strafing and ensuring precise aim every time.

*Speed Tap feature is turned off by default. Simultaneously press Fn + Caps keys to activate.

Versatile Tri-Mode Connection

ROG SpeedNova wireless technology offers up to 1600+ hours of stable, uninterrupted near-zero-latency gameplay in 2.4 GHz RF mode (RGB and OLED off). Alternatively, you can use Bluetooth mode to connect to up to three devices at the same time, or charge and play simultaneously in wired USB mode.

• Bluetooth
• Wired USB
• RF 2.4 GHz

The Azoth X also supports ROG Polling Rate Booster – an ROG-exclusive accessory that upgrades your keyboard polling rate up to true 8000 Hz in both wired and wireless mode.

*ROG Polling Rate Booster sold separately.

Omni Receiver - Multi-Device Connectivity

The ROG Omni Receiver allows wireless connection to one compatible keyboard and one compatible mouse at the same time with just one single USB receiver.

Three Tilt Angles

Two pairs of keyboard feet of differing heights give Azoth X three ergonomic tilt angles to suit user preferences.

Wrist Rest

The extended silicone wrist rest is tailored to perfectly complement the ROG Azoth X. Its ergonomic design ensures comfortable typing experiences while providing firm support.

Extra Tuning

The spacebar has extra lubing and modifications for enhanced acoustics and feel. Additionally, five RGB LEDs under the spacebar create stunning lighting effects.

Keyboard Stabiliser

The pre-lubed keyboard stabiliser has been specially tuned with gamers in mind: it produces less friction, allowing long keys such as Spacebar, Shift and Enter to deliver keystrokes that stay true to the original switch feel.

Hot-Swappable Switches

Users can swap and install their preferred switch type for a unique, customised feel.

*Even though the switches are hot swappable, it is not recommended to swap out switches when the keyboard is on as it could cause a short circuit.

On-the-Fly Macro Recordings

Record macros on the fly and map them to fully programmable keys.

Onboard Memory

Save up to six profiles, including up to five custom schemes, and use them anytime, anywhere.

100% Anti-Ghosting & N-Key Rollover

Every keystroke is registered accurately, no matter how many keys are pressed.

MacOS Support

Easily toggle MacOS mode to remap the keys for use with MacBooks and Macs.

*Armoury Crate is currently not compatible with MacOS.
