    A few days ago we brought you a in-depth review of the latest mechanical keyboard by SteelSeries the 7G Pro Gaming Keyboard which thanks to its build quality and comfortable handrest might as well be the best in its class, or is it? Well today with us we have the latest mechanical keyboard by TteSports named the Meka G1 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard which according to its specifications could prove to be more than just an match for the 7G Pro Gaming Keyboard and that's what we are here to find out.

 

 

    “Challenge is the game” highlights the philosophy to bring out gamers’ addiction in gaming and the ambition of reaching to the extreme. Tt eSPORTS, a gaming obsessed division from Thermaltake, is uniting gamers from all over the world in a unique & fascinating eSPORTS culture, inherited the spirits of Thermaltake, is an energetic, powerful, bold and intelligent challenger who never says “no” to the extreme competition. We do not only provide gamers the ultimate gaming gears but also fulfills the passion to achieve the ultimate success. Thermaltake has been a well-known brand in the gaming & DIY market for PC Chassis, Coolers and Power Supplies PSU for many years. The brand personality of unique, aggressive, vivid and stylish makes Thermaltake an expert in creating exciting things and fascinating environment for gamers and enthusiasts. Tt eSPORTS inherited the brand personality with unique and creative design by observing users’ behaviors and requirements. The fan cooling design on Tt eSPORTS Challenger keyboard demonstrate the brand spirit. It is the worldwide first keyboard with fan cooling function that could dry your hand sweats and blow tension away during cut-throat competition.

 

 

    The Meka G1 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard comes with far too many similarities to the 7G Pro Gaming Keyboard including 50.000.000 keystrokes, 1000Hz polling rate, 7 multimedia keys (the 7G has 6), 2 USB ports, headphone/microphone mini jacks, detachable handrest and gold plated connectors. With so many identical features/specifications the very first thing that came to mind was IF both keyboards could be manufactured by the same company, something which we will see later on. Also this review will be slightly different since some of you asked if i could benchmark the USB ports found on the keyboard not only to see how well they do in transfer speeds but also to see the CPU usage while using them. Of course we placed the Meka G1 against other gaming keyboards we currently have here with us which also feature USB ports.
