Key Specifications

Ultra-Fast Response with Magnetic Switches

The ROG HFX Magnetic Switches allow actuation point customisation from 0.1 mm to 4.0 mm, giving you complete control over typing feel and response. Combined with the Rapid Trigger toggle, this ensures keystrokes register at the exact moment you intend, making the Falchion Ace HFX significantly faster than traditional mechanical keyboards.

8000 Hz Polling Rate for Competitive Edge

With an 8000 Hz polling rate, the Falchion Ace HFX communicates with your PC up to eight times more frequently than standard 1000 Hz keyboards. This ultra-high polling rate reduces input lag to a minimum, providing a crucial advantage in fast-paced gaming where every millisecond counts.

Silent Performance with Premium Build

Five-layer dampening and a silicone gasket mount work together to absorb vibrations and pinging noises, delivering a quieter typing experience without sacrificing tactile feedback. The monochromatic black finish and compact footprint make it ideal for both gaming setups and minimalist workspaces.

Intelligent Touch Control

A multifunction button and interactive touch panel give you instant access to actuation point adjustments, media controls, volume, and lighting effects. This intuitive interface eliminates the need to alt-tab or memorise shortcuts, keeping you focused on the task at hand.
