This mechanical keyboard is not actually referred to as the cheeseboard however I could not resist the pun. It’s referred to as the ‘Ajazz AC067 Cheese Gasket RGB Mechanical Keyboard’, which really is likely to be even higher solely for the phrase ‘Cheese Gasket’.

This 65% keyboard is made by Ajazz, a Chinese gaming peripheral firm, and for its tacky exterior continues to be as a lot a mechanical gaming keyboard as some other. It comes with Kailh Box Yellow switches, specifically designed alongside the well-known key swap producer, which provide a easy linear keystroke. That’s a sensible choice for gaming, however you are not locked in with these if you would like one thing totally different. The PCB is definitely hot-swappable, which is a rising pattern with mech boards right now and a welcome one at that. It means you may pull these switches out and swap them out for others of your liking, if you happen to want. Or simply swap out a lifeless swap within the uncommon occasion one breaks.

This board comes topped by a mixture of yellow and white keys, together with a handful of cheese-themed particular designs for the Esc, Spacebar, and Enter keys.

The entire design is impressed by Tom and Jerry, which has made a wedge of Swiss cheese the de facto cheesiest cheese. No doubt that cartoon did wonders for the Swiss cheese market. Take that, Edam.

I’ve not tried any Ajazz keyboards so I can not attest for the standard of the board itself. With a good hot-swappable PCB you’d hope it will have the ability to stand the take a look at of time like most mechanical keyboards. The included PBT keycaps ought to assist with that—PBT is normally a stronger plastic than the extra frequent ABS plastic discovered on many units.

The tacky exterior can also be made utilizing CNC machining from aluminium alloy, and is not plastic as I had anticipated. That extra sturdy materials is sensible, although: this keyboard retails for $219, which places it right up there when it comes to price for a board of its measurement.

A small worth to pay for a Gouda setup? It’s the value you pay to make infinite cheese puns, not less than, together with shedding your entire associates.

If you need one thing much like the cheeseboard however one that’s not so straight dairy, it is extremely harking back to the Ducky One3 in Yellow Ducky. Granted, that keyboard is extra duckbill orange, however you get the concept. They’re each positive to make a vibrant centrepiece to your gaming desktop, that is for positive.
