Roccat Isku Keyboard Review
Conclusions
Contents
The Roccat Isku is the ideal keyboard for strategy and RPG games that have many complex commands. It features a great capacity for customization, and the application offers useful presets for many hot games on the market. The illumination is beautiful and functional, but the Isku could have featured some USB ports, especially having a sibling product like the Kone[+] (it would have been interesting to hook it up with the Isku). There’s the slight problem with the positioning of the M keys, which we invariably hit by accident, and the question of the size itself: the keyboard is too big and requires lots of empty space on the table.
