The keyboard is connected to the signal source via a 1.8 m USB 2.0 cable. The keyboard is equipped with 104 keys, as well as several additional media keys and a volume wheel.

Each key on the Strike 600 features customizable RGB lighting powered by MSI’s Mystic Light software. It is based on Kailh Midnight Pro Silent Tactile mechanical switches with a service life of more than 70 million clicks. Their volume level does not exceed 35 dBA. They also feature a pre-stroke of 1.9mm and a full stroke of 3.7mm.

The dimensions of the MSI Strike 600 keyboard are 441 × 138 × 38 mm, weight is 984 grams. The upper part of the keyboard is made of aluminum alloy. Strike 600 has built-in memory capable of storing up to three user profiles.

As stated above, the MSI Strike 600 has a recommended price of $80. That’s not much considering that a set of 110 Kailh Midnight Pro Silent Tactile mechanical switches is priced at $62 on its own.
