ASUS ROG Falchion Ace HFX 65% Gaming Keyboard - Magnetic Switches, Dual USB-C, Touch Panel | PCBoost ASUS ROG Falchion Ace HFX 65% Analog Gaming Keyboard Experience gaming evolution with the ROG Falchion Ace HFX — a compact 65% analog keyboard that combines space-saving design with revolutionary features. Featuring customizable ROG HFX Magnetic Switches with adjustable actuation (0.1-4.0mm), Rapid Trigger technology, and an ultra-responsive 8000Hz polling rate, this keyboard delivers precision that outperforms the competition. The interactive touch panel, dual USB-C ports, five-layer dampening system, and premium construction make this the ultimate compact gaming weapon. 65% Compact HFX Magnetic 8000Hz Dual USB-C Revolutionary Analog Technology in a Compact Form The ROG Falchion Ace HFX redefines what's possible in a compact keyboard. This 65% form factor masterfully incorporates arrow and navigation keys while maintaining an incredibly small footprint—at just 315mm in length, it's nearly the same size as a 60% keyboard. But don't let the size fool you. Inside this compact powerhouse are the groundbreaking ROG HFX Magnetic Switches, offering customizable actuation points from 0.1mm to 4.0mm for unprecedented control and a solid, satisfying feel. With the dedicated Rapid Trigger toggle and Speed Tap Mode, the Falchion Ace HFX eliminates input delays and allows for instant directional changes without releasing keys—giving you a competitive edge in fast-paced games. Form Factor 65% Compact with arrow keys Actuation 0.1-4.0mm Customizable range Polling Rate 8000Hz 0.125ms response time Switches HFX Pre-lubed magnetic Advanced Gaming Features for Competitive Edge ROG HFX Magnetic Switches with Customizable Actuation Gain unprecedented control with adjustable 0.1-4.0mm actuation points for personalized gaming performance. The ROG HFX Magnetic Switches use Hall effect sensor technology to detect keystrokes through magnetic fields rather than physical contact, allowing for customizable actuation distances that can be adjusted on-the-fly using the touch panel or through Armoury Crate software. This revolutionary design delivers a solid, satisfying feel while enabling lightning-fast, ultra-precise inputs with a remarkable 100-million-keystroke lifespan. Pre-lubed at the factory, these switches provide smooth, consistent performance right out of the box. Rapid Trigger for Lightning-Fast Inputs Dominate in fast-paced games with instant reset technology that eliminates traditional mechanical limitations. The dedicated Rapid Trigger toggle switch on the top-right rear panel activates the fastest typing response and key repeat rate available. Unlike traditional mechanical switches that require returning to the reset point before registering the next click, ROG HFX Magnetic Switches with Rapid Trigger reset instantly as they move upward, delivering maximum counter-strafing potential with minimal effort. By default, this feature is enabled for WASD keys, with customization for other keys available through Armoury Crate. Revolutionary Speed Tap Mode Execute perfect directional changes with intelligent input prioritization that eliminates movement delays. In Speed Tap mode, when the system detects two opposing inputs (like pressing A and D simultaneously), it automatically prioritizes the latest input and releases the previous one. This groundbreaking feature means your character never stops moving when changing directions in FPS games—instead, directional changes happen instantly without requiring you to release the previous key. The result is seamless counter-strafing with zero time gaps, ensuring precise aim and movement in competitive gaming scenarios. Ultra-Responsive 8000Hz Polling Rate Experience true competitive-grade responsiveness with inputs 8 times faster than standard gaming keyboards. The high-speed USB microcontroller delivers an incredible 8000Hz polling rate, refreshing input states 8000 times per second and reducing input delay from the standard 1 millisecond to just 0.125 milliseconds. This near-instantaneous response time ensures that even the smallest fraction of a second advantage in competitive gaming scenarios is preserved, allowing your reflexes and commands to translate to in-game actions with virtually zero latency. Innovative Interactive Touch Panel Control critical settings with intuitive touch gestures without interrupting your gameplay. The multi-function button and interactive touch panel on the side of the keyboard provide quick access to volume adjustments, media playback controls, keyboard lighting settings, and actuation point customization. The LED lighting bar on top of the keyboard displays dynamic lighting effects to reflect your adjustments in real-time, providing visual feedback without taking your eyes off the game. This innovative control system streamlines your gaming experience by keeping essential functions at your fingertips. Dual USB-C Connectivity with PC Switching Create a cleaner setup and control multiple systems with flexible dual-port design and quick-toggle switching. The Falchion Ace HFX features two USB-C ports on either side of the rear edge, allowing you to choose the most convenient connection point for a cleaner desk setup. Even more impressively, this dual-port design enables simultaneous connection to two different PCs with instant switching between them using the quick-toggle function. This unique capability is perfect for streamers, content creators, or professionals who need to manage multiple systems without cluttering their workspace with additional peripherals.

Fine-tune actuation points for different keys, adjust the behavior of Rapid Trigger and Speed Tap Mode, and create personalized settings profiles that can be saved to the keyboard's onboard memory for use anywhere. On-the-Fly Macro Recording Create complex command sequences instantly with convenient macro recording without interrupting your workflow. The on-the-fly macro recording feature allows you to quickly capture and assign complex keystroke sequences to fully programmable keys without leaving your game or application. This functionality is invaluable for MMO players, competitive gamers who need specific ability combinations, or productivity power users who frequently use repetitive keystroke patterns. Once recorded, these macros can be mapped to any key and saved to the keyboard's onboard memory, ensuring your customizations remain available even when connecting to different systems. Aura Sync RGB Lighting Express your personal style with customizable per-key RGB lighting that synchronizes with your gaming setup. The Falchion Ace HFX features Aura Sync RGB lighting with individually lit keys, giving you complete control over the color spectrum and a range of dynamic lighting effects. Create stunning lighting setups that complement your gaming station, with the ability to synchronize effects across all Aura Sync-compatible devices for a cohesive aesthetic.
