2. Ключові характеристики

• 8K Polling Rate & 16K Scanning Frequency: The Akko TAC75 keyboard features an 8K polling rate, delivering data to your computer 8 times faster than standard 1K keyboards. Its 16K scanning frequency ensures instant detection of key changes, significantly enhancing responsiveness.
• Ultra-precise Rapid Trigger: Experience ultra-precise rapid actuation with adjustable distances down to 0.005 mm. This allows for fine-tuning your key presses for faster response times and improved accuracy, particularly beneficial for competitive gaming.
• ARGB-освітлення: The TAC75 series incorporates ARGB (south-facing LEDs) with individually controlled LEDs, providing smooth, flicker-free illumination. Alpha channel integration enables richer dynamic lighting effects, reducing visual fatigue and offering extensive customization.
• Snap Key Functionality: Akko's SOCD (Simultaneous Opposite Cardinal Directions) implementation, Snap Key, prioritizes the most recent key press. This enables rapid direction changes without needing to release previous inputs, crucial for fluid and responsive control in fast-paced games like FPS titles.
• Magnetic Switch Compatibility: This keyboard is designed to be compatible with most magnetic switches that have the N pole facing down. Please note that using non-compatible switches may affect stem precision, and the keyboard does not support traditional mechanical switches.
