HX-KB7RDX-RU

Solid aluminium base. An interesting variation of red switches. Nice RGB lighting with flexible settings. Built-in memory for three profiles. Detachable cable.

Compact ANSI format model with a universal USB connector, which allows you to connect it to both a PC and a laptop. The wire length of 1.8 metres makes it possible to use the keyboard not only on the table, but also on your knees, which in some cases provides additional convenience, given that this is a gaming model. Mechanical buttons are reliable and have a long service life.

According to the manufacturer, the keys are designed for tens of millions of keystrokes. The Kingston HyperX Alloy Origins Core keyboard is equipped with a detachable cable, which makes it convenient to transport — packing a device with a wire removed is much easier than with a coiled around the case. The game mode provides blocking of individual buttons, allowing the gamer to fully concentrate on the game, and not think about the consequences if the finger hits the wrong area. The keyboard has a Skeleton body, making the keys easy to remove and insert. The backlight provides convenient use of equipment in the dark, and lighting effects make the device beautiful and dynamic. To expand the functionality of the technique is equipped with the "Fn" button.

Model overview based on user reviews  
The HyperX Alloy Origins Core Red Switch keyboard is a compact, wired gaming keyboard known for its solid build quality and aluminum structure. It features proprietary HyperX Red linear switches that are smooth and responsive, often compared favorably to Cherry and Gateron switches. Users appreciate the bright RGB lighting and the detachable Type-C cable, which adds convenience. However, some users note that the keycaps are fragile and made of ABS, which could be improved with PBT material. The keyboard's stabilizers are a common point of criticism, as they can be noisy and lack lubrication. Despite these minor issues, the keyboard is generally considered reliable and accurate, making it a good choice for gaming, though some feel it is priced on the higher side. Overall, it is praised for its durability and performance, especially for those who prefer a compact design without a numpad.

Compact keyboard with good build quality and amazing switches
28 March 2021 
Among HyperX keyboards, this is the best model. Among other brands - no, it's not the best. But much better than average. What's great here are the proprietary switches. Similar to Gaterons, smooth, in my opinion cooler than Cherry. And they don't wobble like that.
Switches, bright backlighting, decent materials, Type C, Cherry stabs, soundproofing.
ABS mouthguards. If they were PBT, that would be awesome.
Serg use HyperX Alloy Origins Core Red Switch more than year
For 10,000 it’s too expensive, but if you find it for 7, then feel free to take it! You can't go wrong))
23 March 2021 
Very cool switches (red HyperX), incredibly linear, soft, smooth, in general, reeeally awesome switches, even better than Cherry and Gateron. Very bright and beautiful backlighting. "Skeleton" - this is, of course, subjective, but for me, who likes the "classic" type of structure, it is aesthetically more pleasing than the "classic." However, since I have a long-haired pet (dog) at home, which sheds a lot, the "skeleton" suits me better because it's easy and convenient to clean anything that gets inside. Also, the "skeleton" doesn't disgust me, so that's a plus. Now about the materials used in the keyboard, it's aviation aluminum. The keyboard is monolithic; you cannot bend it in any way. Aluminum is both on top and bottom, making it very heavy (900 grams). When you open the box and take this keyboard in your hands, it feels like a really expensive product.
Now about the minuses: 1. Keycaps - the minus of these keycaps is that they are incredibly thin, they are ABS with engraving, but the keycaps are covered with a very pleasant SoftTouch coating (rubberized). In short, the keycaps are poor in execution, but they feel like a bomb to the touch. 2 Stabilizers are a sore point for HyperX; they make noise, and they make a lot of noise. This is essentially also subjective, but still, the keyboard costs 10,000 (without discounts) and is still too expensive.

For my money, the keyboard is not very cool. It’s awesome in the field of keyboards

I have been using this model for 3 months and I will say that keycaps are not the same as in FPS, FPS Pro. At Origins Core, they are pleasant to the touch, but also fragile, the candles are lubricated here, I liked it. Good RGB lighting, and the form itself is compact. Claims only to fragile keycaps, and then they are pleasant to the touch
Cool lighting, oiled candles, candles themselves and pleasant to the touch keycaps

Tournament version of the popular keyboard

Over the past couple of years, the Kingston HyperX gaming division has been heavily leaning on gaming peripherals. They rarely shoot, but accurately, so most of the products do not pass by the players, and some become real hits. We do not undertake to judge what is the fate of the new HyperX Alloy Origins Core keyboard, but the impressions from it are the most pleasant. Like the original HyperX Alloy, this esports version stands out with interesting custom-designed switches and a body made from a single piece of aluminium.

Red switches of our own design

Let's start with switches. Among their advantages, Kingston / HyperX engineers note a short stroke to the actuation point and an increased resource for failure (up to 80 million clicks). The total key travel is 3.8mm, the travel is 1.8mm, and the actuation force is 45g. They resemble traditional red switches in character, but unlike them, they are not as light and do not accidentally press under the weight of the fingers.

Lots of pros and no cons

After a couple of weeks of use, the impressions from HyperX Alloy Origins Core are the most positive - it's a simple, elegant, reliable and very comfortable keyboard without weaknesses. At the same time, it has additional goodies like a removable cable or built-in memory, which allows you to record macros, control the backlight, or change the assignment of keys. Up to three profiles can be stored in memory. To this should be added a bright, but not annoying backlight and proprietary software that allows you to fine-tune the keyboard functions, if it is really necessary.
