ASUS Republic of Gamers Announces Falchion Ace HFX Portable Keyboard (1)

ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) today announced the Falchion Ace HFX, a 65% analog wired gaming keyboard engineered for gamers who demand precision, speed, and customization. Featuring ROG HFX Magnetic Switches and an 8000 Hz polling rate, this ultra-compact keyboard sets a new standard in gaming peripherals. The ROG Falchion Ace HFX masterfully incorporates arrow and navigation keys into a 65% keyboard layout. At just 315 mm in length, it's almost the same size as a 60% keyboard, so gamers can enjoy all the functions of a normal keyboard while saving desktop space.

The ROG Falchion Ace HFX comes equipped with pre-lubed magnetic switches that are designed for a solid feel and lightning-fast, ultraprecise performance. With a lifespan of 100 million keypresses, these switches use high-quality POM plastic for the stem and bottom housing and PC for the top housing, ensuring ultrasmooth keystrokes. The innovative walled stem design enhances stability while keeping out dust, making this keyboard durable and reliable for intense gaming sessions. What really sets the Falchion Ace HFX apart is its customizable actuation range, which allows gamers to adjust the actuation point from 0.1 to 4.0 mm to match their gaming and typing experiences. This adjustment can be easily managed through the rear-mounted multifunction button and touch panel or via the Armoury Crate or Armoury Crate Gear software, providing flexibility and fingertip control.

Rapid Trigger and Speed Tap modes
The ROG HFX Magnetic Switches are further enhanced with Rapid Trigger technology, which allows the switch to reset instantly as it moves upward. This feature is crucial for gamers, enabling maximum strafing potential with minimal effort. In addition, the Speed Tap mode revolutionizes directional changes in FPS games. When two opposing directional keys are pressed, Speed Tap prioritizes the last input, automatically releasing the previous key. This eliminates any time gap for counter-strafing, ensuring that every directional change is immediate and precise.

8000 Hz polling rate
To maximize responsiveness with minimum latency, a high-speed USB microcontroller delivers an 8000 Hz polling rate that refreshes input up to 8X faster than most gaming keyboards, reducing input lag from a typical 1 millisecond for standard 1000 Hz gaming keyboards to a mere 0.125 ms.

Flexibility and comfort
The keyboard is engineered for comfort and versatility, featuring five dampening layers—two PORON and three silicone—that absorb keystroke vibrations and reduce noise for a cushioned typing experience. It also offers dual-port flexibility with two USB-C ports for connecting and switching between two PCs, and comes with a protective cover that doubles as a tray mount. Additionally, the keyboard includes two pairs of feet, providing three ergonomic tilt angles to match the gamer's preferred typing position.
