Verdict
ASUS ROG Strix Scope II 96
8 / 10 Expert Rating
A well-damped, hot-swappable 96% board that proves numpad layouts can still sound and feel premium.
Royal Kludge RK84
6 / 10 Expert Rating
A genuinely accessible entry point into mechanical keyboards for beginners, without the programmability or build quality of more premium options.
