That's now possible without ruining other titles where super-fast actuation doesn't make sense. And in first-person shooters, you want your keystrokes to register as soon as possible for immediate response in-game. The same goes for MMOs like World of Warcraft, where you can set frequently used abilities to keys with faster actuation points set for immediate triggering. By setting the actuation point to that specific key to 3.6mm and QWER keys to 1.6mm, you'll be wasting your valuable ability less often. Say you enjoy playing League of Legends and frequently hit F by accident - because everyone knows you set the flash ability to F. This such a big deal for a variety of reasons. You'll not want to use anything else after the SteelSeries Apex Pro. The software interacts with the magnetic Omni point switches to adjust how each key performs, and you can set keys to different values that can then be saved to profiles.

The Apex Pro makes it possible to adjust the actuation point between 0.4mm and 3.6mm using the on-board control wheel and OLED display or SteelSeries Engine.

You'll be able to load profiles and switch them on the fly, and there's no delay between profile switching, even if there's a difference in key actuation points. SteelSeries clearly designed this keyboard with LAN events in mind. Aside from being able to load up your favorite tech website's logo as a splash screen, it's possible to use this display and the accompanying wheel to alter a whole host of settings, including lighting and actuation. But wait, before you roll your eyes at the fact a keyboard houses a pointless display, know that this one actually has some use. On the top-right of the Apex Pro, there's a small OLED display. Unfortunately, the cable is not detachable, but it's thick, and the built-in USB passthrough makes up for this minor complaint. SteelSeries bundles a magnetic wrist pad that can be attached to the front of the Apex Pro and there are runners underneath the keyboard to allow you to route the USB cable depending on where your PC is located.
