Our Verdict

Fnatic miniSTREAK

HyperX Alloy Origins 60

The Fnatic miniSTREAK and the HyperX Alloy Origins 60 are both wired mechanical gaming keyboards, but the Fnatic is a TenKeyLess, and the HyperX is a compact 60%. The Fnatic's larger size gives it room for a dedicated function row and dedicated arrow keys instead of secondary functions like the HyperX. The HyperX is only available with HyperX Red switches, and the Fnatic is available with Cherry MX Silent Red or Kailh Speed Silver switches. If having the lowest possible latency matters a lot to you, the HyperX is a superb option to consider since its latency is much lower than the Fnatic's, though the Fnatic should still feel responsive.
