The HyperX Alloy Origins Core is available in two switch options, and either version costs $89.99 from the HyperX web store for customers in the USA, as of the date of this review. Street pricing is the same from resellers, including Amazon.com, although...

We know that our readers may have heard that HyperX is being acquired by HP. What that bodes for the future of the company remains to be seen. As it stands, I have recommended HyperX headsets and keyboards for some time now and feel like the brand tends t...

The HyperX Alloy Origins Core with Aqua Switches launches at a price of INR 10,990/-. Which immediately removes it from being a budget keyboard by a long shot and is more of a premium product. Am I bothered at the lack of a Numpad? No, because they have o...
