Cougar released its 600K mechanical gaming keyboard, and back in September it built the 700K. Now, the company announced the 500K, and it’s not the keyboard you might expect.
At first it looks identical to the 700K, except for the color of the backplane. It has the same layout, the same features, and the same styling It gets the name 500K because it’s not a mechanical keyboard, but rather a membrane keyboard with rubber dome switches.
Otherwise has the same features as the 700K. It comes with N-Key rollover (which the company points out is a rarity among membrane keyboards), six programmable G-Keys (one of which is half of the space bar), full LED lighting, mediacontrol switches, macro recording controls, and windows-key lock button.
This keyboard targeted at users who really liked what they saw with the 700K but didn’t have the cash for its price tag since it is a mechanical keyboards.
