Full-Size Optical Gaming Keyboard

The NZXT Function 2 is a full-size wired keyboard built with NZXT Swift linear optical switches and an 8000 Hz polling rate. It targets competitive players who want minimal input latency and a durable 100-million keystroke rating. A detachable USB cable and included palm rest complete the package for extended sessions.

Build Integration and Flexibility

The keyboard connects via a detachable USB cable and supports Windows, Mac, Xbox and PlayStation without extra drivers. Hot-swappable switch sockets let you replace switches without soldering, freeing you to tailor the feel later. The 5000 series aluminium frame adds rigidity while the compact 442 x 127.8 x 40.3 mm footprint fits most desk layouts.

Sustained Load Behaviour

Dual-layer sound-dampening foam and tape-enhanced PCB absorb pinging noises that typically worsen during long matches. Pre-lubed switches and plate-mounted stabilisers maintain consistent, quiet keystrokes over time. Per-key RGB illumination and doubleshot PBT keycaps resist shine and fading through heavy daily use.

Questions about this item

How does the 8,000 Hz polling rate affect sustained input latency?

The 8,000 Hz polling rate transmits input signals four times faster than typical gaming keyboards, ensuring virtually zero latency during extended gaming sessions.

What thermal or acoustic behaviour appears when the keyboard runs all day?

Dual-layer foam and tape-enhanced PCB absorb unwanted pinging noises, while pre-lubed switches and plate-mounted stabilisers keep keystrokes quiet and consistent over long periods.

Which operating systems must I already have for the keyboard to function?

The keyboard supports Windows, Mac, Xbox and PlayStation, so any of those platforms will work immediately with the detachable USB connection.
