Toetsenbord Sharkoon SKILLER SGK50 S3 Gaming USB No White

The Sharkoon SKILLER SGK50 S3 Barebone is a compact 75% gaming keyboard supplied without switches or keycaps to allow full customization. It supports QMK and VIA firmware for programmable layouts and macros, includes a polycarbonate positioning plate and double-layer silicone damping for improved acoustics and more even RGB illumination, and connects via USB with a detachable textile-braided spiral cable (USB-C to USB-A).

Advantages

Delivered as a barebone model, the SKILLER SGK50 S3 lets users choose and install almost any commercially available three- or five-pin switches and preferred keycap sets. The 75% layout provides the functionality of a larger three-block keyboard while saving desk space, and the included tools simplify switch and keycap installation. Firmware compatibility with QMK and VIA enables deep remapping and macro programming without relying solely on onboard key combinations.

Suitable for

• Custom keyboard builders who want to fit their own switches and keycaps
• Gamers seeking a compact 75% layout with programmable keys
• Users who need programmable macros and remappable keys via QMK or VIA
• Desk setups where space saving and a tidy cable solution are preferred
