The HyperX Alloy Elite RGB mechanical gaming keyboard has dropped $40 on Amazon

The HyperX Alloy Elite RGB mechanical gaming keyboard is down to $99.99 on Amazon. The Alloy Elite has been selling for around $140 since September last year. It drops occasionally from that price, and today's deal is a match for the lowest we've ever seen. It has only hit this price once before.

This version of the Alloy Elite uses Cherry MX Red keys. You can get the Cherry MX Brown keyboard for this same low price, but the Blue version is still $140. The difference is in the audible feedback and how they feel, and you can read more about that here.

The keyboard has a radiant light bar and dynamic RGB lighting effects. The NGenuity software gives you complete customization, and you can store up to three profiles based on the lighting and macros you choose. The frame is solid steel, so it's very stable and durable. It also has a detachable wrist rest. Users give it 4.4 stars based on 278 reviews.
