Vulcan 120 AIMO

FEEL THE IMPACT
The Vulcan is a precision gaming tool that lets you sense its performance from the first glance and the first key stroke. Developed following the renowned principles of German design and engineering, it is the best keyboard ROCCAT has ever built.

NEW TECHNOLOGIES
The Vulcan is the first keyboard to feature ROCCAT-developed Titan Switches. The switches, designed from the ground up, were built for gamers craving a key stroke that was swift and precise while still being tactile. As well as a tactile and silent 1.8mm actuation point with a 3.6mm travel distance, the switches feature structural housing to reduce wobble while being pressed. They bring electrical contact bouncing to a minimum, allowing firmware to recognize input 20% faster. The key caps are also ultra-light 50% lighter than standard for that rapid response.

BUILT TO LAST
An anodized aluminum plate reinforces the Vulcans structural integrity and protects against wear and tear. The detachable palm rest and low-profile keyboard design improve ergonomics, making it suitable for long periods of game time. Key caps are specially designed for easy maintenance. They match the spacing and surface area of traditional caps but feature a shortened height to make cleaning easy, complementing the Titan Switchs dust-resistant housing perfectly.

AIMO ILLUMINATION
The Vulcan provides the best possible platform for the AIMO lighting engine. Each switch features an individually configurable, long-life LED capable of displaying 16.8M colors in a variety of special effects. Transparent switch housing means the multicolor lighting shines impressively and is spread evenly from every key.

AIMO represents both a lighting engine and an eco-system at once. Its functionality grows based on the number of AIMO-enabled connected devices. It reacts organically based on your usage, presenting state-of-the-art illumination scenarios without the need for configuration.

PALM REST & MEDIA KEYS
The palm rest adds a subtle level of comfort and support. Its ideal for gamers who tend towards lengthy sessions and want their performance in tip-top shape throughout. With mixer-style media keys and wheel youve got sophisticated function as well as comfort.

+Low-profile keycaps, Sturdy build quality, Dedicated media keys
-Hard plastic wristrest, No dedicated macro keys, Lacks USB pass-through

All of which makes the Vulcan 120 Aimo pretty decent value. It's only £6 more than the regular-size HyperX keyboard and £25 cheaper than its main rival from Corsair and, for that money, you're getting a keyboard that both performs well and looks fantastic...

It's an expensive keyboard, but find me any brands flagship model that isn't. The price is competitive when you dial down into the level of features on offer. If you want something that's every bit as good as the competition, but does things a little bit...
