Logitech G19 Gaming Keyboard

There's plenty more to talk about, which we'll get to in the next page. And we won't spare any detail on what we like, and dislike, about the G19. Let's see if this beast is really worth coughing up two Benjamins

Without this LCD, the G19 is a macro keyboard, riddled with programmable keys that gamers have learned to tailor to their favorite games. Each key is backlit with any color of your choice, and there are three gaming profiles to choose from if you're a hardcore macro junkie.

At center stage for the Logitech's G19 keyboard is the main attraction: a 320x240 pixel color screen. With this you can cycle through a variety of apps, from a performance monitor on CPU and memory usage, to gaming stats and data of more than 60+ games. It can be your own personal digital photo frame, or video playerit can even stream videos. Yes, we're still talking about a keyboard.

's G19 keyboard is, well, a bit over the top. That's safe to say because it really is. And if you, Mr. ExtremeTech reader are just so extreme enough, then this keyboard's for you. Here's our spoiler to how this story ends: It kicks butt. But here's another spoiler: It costs two hundred dollars.

In fact, if what you're looking for in your next keyboard is something just to type on, then follow our advice: turn away, go, run as far away as possible and don't let the door hit you on the way out.

This is not your ordinary keyboard. Nope. No way.

Multi-key input allows you to use up to five keys at once to perform multiple complex actions.
