hey guys this is Austin and today I'm here with a review of the steelseries 6gv2 mechanical keyboard this is one of the most popular gaming keyboards out right now with tons of feedback thanks to the Cherry MX black key switches so let's take a closer look to see if it's right for your gaming PC doing a quick little unboxing you'll see the 6gv2 doesn't have a lot to say for itself until you get into the box pop the top and you'll see the accessories pack along with the keyboard itself first up you'll find an included USB to ps2 adapter which is helpful in decreasing the time between when you press a key when something actually happens there's also a bit of paperwork showing off some other products the owner's manual which come on it's a keyboard you should be able to work it out lastly you get a SteelSeries sticker to toss on something if you'd like the main attraction is of course the keyboard itself which thanks to the small bezels actually is a bit smaller than most gaming keyboards another little detail I like is the matte texture which feels nice to touch and doesn't attract fingerprints which should help to keep it clean instead of a left Windows key you'll see the SteelSeries key which is there to keep you from accidentally leaving your game along with the larger Enter key which means that you have a shrink and right Shift key and the backspace has been moved down neither of these changes took too long for me to get used to though something else to keep in mind is that the 6gv2 is a bit tall and has no height adjustment the position of the keyboard feels right to me but of course it might not be perfect for you once you start using it you'll find the cherry black switches give a very different feel compared to a normal membrane based keyboard they aren't clicky and in fact the press is registered about halfway down as you type which can speed you up quite a bit once you get used to them I'll shut up for a second so you can hear the fairly quiet noise these make they do take more pressure than usual to press however which means your fingers might get a bit tired at first but they're great for gaming about the only thing that's missing is a backlight but considering the price I really can't complain it's also built like a tank the entire keyboard is really well built and feel like it will last three years of use altogether the 6gv2 is a great mechanical keyboard for gaming as well as typing that's actually pretty reasonably priced and I'll of course add a link to check it out in the description if you're interested in more feel free to check out my last video going over my game console collection and if you joy definitely be sure to leave this video a thumbs up and subscribe if you want to see more like this anyway guys I will catch you next time you
