Final Words & Conclusion

Overall the G.Skill KM360 is a good mechanical keyboard, and you get quality Cherry MX Red switches with nice white backlighting. The anti-ghosting works really well. The Cherry MX Red switches are classified as gaming switches, and are not so good for typing. There’s also a touch of premium to this keyboard, because of the aluminum top-plate. The KM360 has a good, soft wrist rest. The braided cable is also a plus (and it’s not stiff). The keycaps are made from (double injection) ABS, but this is practically the standard solution in this price range, and the keycaps are actually surprisingly comfortable.

Conclusion

The pricing is very reasonable (49.99 USD) and end-users will be pleased with the overall package and design. The market for mechanical keyboards is very crowded (and it’s still expanding), but this G.Skill product has some advantages. The aesthetics are fine, the quality leaves nothing to be desired (aluminum top-plate), and you can set the backlight level to your preference (although it’s uneven at times). You also get a 1-year warranty which is short, very short, but the USD 49.99 price tag is the real deal here. Guru3D’s recommendation is based on the overall quality and the pricing: at this price, you are unlikely to find anything of similar quality and sporting Cherry MX switches. The G.Skill KM360 decidedly deserves our Guru3D Great Value award.

G.Skill TridentZ 5 DDR5 5600 CL36 review
G.Skill has prepared very well for launching a new memory standard and has presented three DDR5 series: the Trident Z5 (5600-6400 MHz), the Trident Z5 RGB (the same range as the non-RGB’s), and the Ripjaws S5 (5200-5600 MHz). They all come in 32 GB kits (2 x 16 GB), and their frequency is higher than the base 4800 MHz. Today, we are checking the G.Skill TridentZ5 5600 MHz CL36 DDR5 kit. It’s not the high-end of the series, as even the 6400 MHz CL32 are available, and the 5600 MHz is the lowest frequency you can get from this DDR5 family.

G.Skill Z5i (Mini ITX) chassis review
This time, we're checking out the G.Skill Z5i, the first chassis from a company known the most from the RAM. Some can remember that there's an AIO (Enki) available, as well as the keyboards (like KM360), mice (and mousepad), headsets, or PSUs. The attempt is made in a not-so-popular segment, meaning the Mini-ITX (so that's one of the reasons for the mentioned limit). This choice is a brave one as it's not so easy to create a good product here. Yes, it's gaining the share, but the ATX is dominating (maybe we'll also see something from G.Skill?).
