Written review: Sound Test: PDF Manual: https://mega.co.nz/#!wkphjKJQ!. Vortex introduced 2-layer programmability function with the second generation POKER keyboard. For the third generation POKER, they increase the programmable layers to 3 layers. Instead of holding the PN key to access to the additional layers, the new keyboard allows you to toggle between different layers with the use of FN key.

The keyboard looks great and feels great but my left shift key is not lubricated and can't use it at all.
best keyboard I've bought it's really solid and the cherry switches, of course, feel great and it looks so good even after a year of use
just buy the keyboard. the quality is outstanding and you won't find a better board for the price!
Read the reviews on this board and they are spot on. I'm not a gamer so I needed this board to have on the road with me. Since I work quite a bit from my hotel room, I needed something not as clicky and it's why I went with browns. I tried others cherry switches but looks like browns is where I feel most comfortable. Back to the Poker. The color is bright white not off white. The case has a nice solid weight to it. PBTs are the way to go. Only thing that I noticed is the space bar makes a bit of a rattle noise.I did try to swap the keys and perhaps it needs to be re-seated. The only real downside to the board is more of a preference. :( I miss having a dedicated Delete Key, however, it wasn't a deal breaker and the board is definitely a keeper. I did inquire about the FC660M and shared with Evan from MK the need of a delete key but only in passing (not a complaint). Within minutes I received details about the board I was looking for and a suggestion for a different board to help with my issue. Unfortunately I waited too long to pull the trigger. That being said, I picked up (2) other boards and key caps since then. All transactions have been flawless! I'll post reviews for those as well. GAVE 5 STARS because the 'downside' is more of a preference and didn't feel it should reflect the board and the space bar might be more of a user installer error. Again, not a game but do use my keyboards quite a bit.
The keyboard is made well and the aluminum casing is very nice. Programming keys is pretty simple, and the switches feel great.
So I'm coming to this board after using a CM Quickfire Storm with Cherry MX Blue switches for about a year and a half and as of writing this review I've had the Pok3r for 5 days now. Let me just start off saying that when I type I like to give that extra 'umph' to pressing down my keys and these Cherry MX Black switches feel great to push down on. The whole keyboard feels a lot more sturdier and well built as a whole. Though there isn't the clickiness I was used to hearing, the audible feedback is still pretty satisfying, just not as obnoxious which I was used to. It's also important to note that this is my first 60% board, and so far I've found that I didn't really use the other keys nearly as much as I thought. My only regret with this purchase is that I didn't buy the backlit version! The LEDs in the capslock key and the spacebar are so nice I wish I had it in the whole keyboard. Overall, I love this keyboard and would recommend it to anyone interested in high quality mechanical keyboards.
Excellent. Each time I type, I can feel the quality of the caps. This is my first vortex board and I am blown away
Great keyboard. Absolutely rock solid. Very well built and just plain beautiful.

Feels amazing. Super sturdy build. I chose MX Nature Whites and could not be happier! ONLY issue was my keyboard came with a very short USB cable which ruined my cable routing, it was supposed to come with a 60 inch USB cable but I can get over that and find a new cable.
OKay so the switches i got (Blue) were not as loud as i expected which is good cause i had Razer Greens which are super loud (slightly louder than Cherry MX Blue)
The Keycaps felt kinda dusty but it was just the texture of it so after a day of use it should feel good as it should be.
The stabilizers for my L-Shift key doesn't feel smooth, everytime i click on it it gives an extra sound than the hits between the keycap and the switch but its okay since its not on something like the space nar which i use a lot.
everything else is great but not including an keycap puller was sad.keyboard came in great packaging and is also compatible with PS4. Could not be any happier with the website or the keyboard itself. great build quality and rgb effects.
i ordered the mx silent reds and they are incredible couldn't be any better.I was pretty happy when i got the keyboard i purchased. How ever there a few things i like to point out to the buyers of this product. The first being that the keyboard is pretty well packed secure & shipped to me in around 2 weeks. The product like descried is 60% and white with rgb back light. There are some cons i can point out from what I received. The keyboard is pretty well constructed but not as much as I would like. I purchased the cherry mx silent version of the keyboard. It has bit of a click and o ring feel to it on certain switches. This could ware out over time however as most third party keyboards do. Additionally it does not come with a key cap puller which i'm not pleased about. I personally think its a must on all keyboard especially at this price . 4/5 for what i'm getting.
icantusespacebecauseiaccidentallymakeamacroplshelp
the product is wonderful and the keyboard feels great but i did get it shipped with a broken mini usb cable that it comes with so i had to go out of my way to get another mini usb cable.
Mechanicalkeyboards.com did a wonderful job shipping this product and for free! They are one of the few places that have Pok3r RGB keyboards in stock and for a great price. This keyboard exceeded my expectations. My first mechanical keyboard was a Razer Blackwidow Stealth Edition with Brown switches. I thought that was the pinnacle of mechanical keyboards until I discovered the enthusiast brands and models. This Vortex is amazing. The switches are buttery smooth and the LEDs are bright and vibrant. What I noticed first was the weight of the metal base. It feels solid and substantial. The fit and feel is superb. Everything from the keys to the USB cable has no wiggle or rattle. The LED color options are highly customizable. The one thing to note is the lack of paper documentation. All the guides and manuals can be found on their website or on Youtube.com.
Do reds feel too light? Do blacks feel too heavy? Well then, Nature White Cherry MX switches are for you. This keyboard is beyond beautiful. It is minimalistic perfection, and oh yeah, it has rgb lighting
Excellent keyboard: durable design, very good lighting, compact.
Out of box support for Windows and Mac OS.
Makes typing a joy and looks great.
