Press Releases

IRVINE, Calif. – August 8, 2018 - IOGEAR, a manufacturer of innovative information technology products for consumers and organizations of varying size, today announced the availability of the new Kaliber Gaming HVER PRO RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboards. The new keyboards, which feature either red (GKB720RGB-RD) or brown (GKB720RGB-BN) mechanical switches, combine precision keystrokes, a rugged aircraft aluminum chassis, RGB per-key backlighting, and full programmability giving users a high-end keyboard that is ideal for PC gaming or everyday typing.

Unlike traditional keyboards that utilize dome or membrane switches, the new HVER PRO RGB keyboards utilize mechanical tactile switches. These switches do not need to be fully depressed for proper registration enabling users to game faster and type more accurately with less hand fatigue. The GKB720RGB-BN features brown switches which have a light tactile feedback "click," and are the most popular mechanical switch type among gamers. The GKB720RGB-RD uses red switches which have a more linear feel (no click) and are very quiet, making them ideal for games that prefer a smoother response and quieter operation.

Features of the HVER PRO RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboards

• All NKRO/Anti-Ghosting Keys – N-Key Rollover (NKRO) design ensures that every keystroke in any key combination will be registered accurately;
• Fully Programmable Keys – Create macro functions, shortcuts, hotkeys, and more with the free Kaliber Gaming HVER PRO software;
• Double-Injected Keycaps – Characters on the face of each key are injection molded as part of the key, not merely printed on top, so they will not wear off;
• Premium Gaming Features – Windows key lock prevents accidentally entering menus while gaming; All-Key lock prevents unwanted keystrokes; key functions can be swapped for left-handed gamers; weighted base increases stability while gaming;
• RGB Per-Key Backlighting – 18 different LED lighting patterns act as a moving light show, and DIY lighting mode makes it easy to create custom lighting layouts without the need for special software;
• Works Seamlessly with IOGEAR KeyMander – Use with the KeyMander Keyboard and Mouse Adapter to add precision aiming, faster targeting and more comfortable movement when gaming on your PS4, PS3, Xbox One, or Xbox 360.

"Our new HVER PRO RGB keyboards give gamers the ability to upgrade to the precision and performance offered by a high-end mechanical gaming keyboard at a price point that is nearly half that of the competing products," stated Derek Hamilton, Product Manager at IOGEAR. "The two switch options allow users to choose the keyboard feel that best fits their play style and typing preferences, and the ease-of-programming allows them to customize the keyboard for a truly personalized gaming experience."

The new IOGEAR HVER PRO RGB Mechanical Gaming keyboards carry two-year warranties and are available now at an MSRP of $79.95.
