Razer Blackwidow Chroma 2014 USB Gaming Keyboard

World's First Mechanical Switches Designed For Gaming

The Razer Blackwidow mechanical gaming keyboard was first launched in 2010 and quickly became the most popular and highest selling gaming keyboard worldwide, making its mark as the primary choice for eSports athletes.

Four years later, the Razer Mechanical Switch was introduced, giving the Razer Blackwidow an even greater advantage with the world’s first mechanical switch designed from the ground up specifically for gaming. This enabled gamers to take their skill to the next level with more speed and precision than ever before. By redefining the limits of performance, this elite mechanical gaming keyboard left the competition in the dust, even faster than before.

Now with Chroma customisable backlighting, this gaming icon is raising the bar once again by introducing individually controlled multi-color backlit keys that allow for extreme customisation. Bearing the distinct Razer BlackWidow design, the Razer Blackwidow Chroma gives you the unbridled freedom to truly express yourself, not just with an impressive spectrum of colors but with personalized lighting controls as well.

All-new Razer Mechanical Switches
Designed from the ground up specifically for gaming, the all-new Razer Mechanical Switches have an optimised set of actuation and reset points that improve your gaming performance by giving you speed and responsiveness like never before.

Inter-device colour synchronization
Whether it’s your favourite shade of green or your guild colours, Chroma gives you the freedom to decide. It could be one, three or even thirty-seven colours, with a spectrum of visual effects featuring 16.8 million colours; the possibilities are whatever you can imagine. With inter-device colour synchronisation, your Razer Chroma enabled Razer gaming weapons will always go together perfectly.

Greater durability
No matter how intense your gaming marathons get, each Razer Mechanical Switch is engineered to withstand up to 60 million keystrokes, so you’ll enjoy the Razer advantage for longer.

Razer Chroma SDK
All Razer Chroma enabled devices come with an open SDK that will allow game developers to take advantage of the multitude of lighting options available for Chroma by integrating these advanced lighting effects to create in-game lighting alerts or actions per minute lighting features.
