Our Verdict

Vortex Race 3

Keychron K2 (Version 2)

The Vortex Race 3 and the Keychron K2 (Version 2) are both 75% keyboards with a similar layout, but the Vortex is wired-only while the Keychron is wireless with Bluetooth connectivity. The Keychron is more versatile because you can use it with mobile devices and pair it to multiple devices at once. If you're planning on using it for gaming, though, the Vortex is better because it has lower latency and macro-programmable keys. Also, it has onboard memory to save custom profiles. Both keyboards are available in various switch options, and the Vortex has a variant with backlighting.
