Our Verdict

HyperX Alloy FPS Pro

HyperX Alloy Origins 65

The HyperX Alloy FPS Pro and the HyperX Alloy Origins 65 are two wired, mechanical gaming keyboards, but the Origins 65 performs better overall. The Origins 65 feels better built, has full RGB backlighting, and all of its keys are macro-programmable. Also, its latency is significantly better, and it comes with companion software for customization, which the FPS Pro lacks.
