G.SKILL RipJaws KM780 RGB Mechanical keyboard

We review the G.SKILL RipJaws KM780 RGB Mechanical keyboard with the all new Cherry-MX RGB LEDs. The G.SKILL KM780 RGB mechanical keyboard is the the first keyboard series from G.Skill and with this rather awesome entry G.Skill is about to impress. This keyboard comes with Cherry Brown MX switches that have RGB lighting which is per key configurabl. It can be animated and profiled, and next to that these mechy keys also have trick or two encompassed in the new design as well.

As G.Skill opens up a new chapter with the new gaming pehiperals they release an RGB line of gaming products including headsets, mice and thus keyboards. The G.SKILL KM780 RGB keyboard we're testing today, is a programmable per key configurable RGB Cherry MX tech based mechanical keyboard. It's not just all about the RGB LEDs and cool lighting animations of course, the keyboard comes in black and heavy design with looks that can be labeled as pleasant. You will also reveice extra rugged swappable keys, the keyboard comes with a USB connector and even a rubberized wrist-rest. From an aesthetics view we think G.Skill gets it. The KM780 is a mechanical FPS gaming keyboard.
 

As you'll be able to see, the KM780 RGB comes with a detachable full-sized wrist rest as well. The specs overall include a 1000Hz polling rate (configurable), 100% anti-ghosting, and the media keys and USB pass-through on the rear remain too.  The KB780 RGB is a full n-key rollover keyboard. It allows you to reduce the polling rate from 1000Hz to 500, 250 or 125Hz. For the G.Skill Km780 RGB you can choose from red, blue and brown Cherry MX keys for your preferred key pressure preferences, Cherry Red and Browns will be initially available, while Cherry Blue will be available at a later date. A product that will be priced at 159 USD (MSRP). Will it be worth it ?
 

 

Let's have a peek at that first ... and then browse our way into the review, in a rather colorful setting. Check the video above to see the RGB lighting system in action. Then we'll head onwards into the review.

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?).
