GamePanel LCD - Keep informed
The GamePanel LCD includes apps for RSS, e-mail, system resources, media players, clock timers and more. Plus it can show info from over 75 games and apps including World Of Warcraft, Ventrilo, TeamSpeak, and Windows SlideShow. For more info on supported games and applications, visit Logitech’s dedicated page.

Custom-colour backlighting – choose your colour
RGB LEDs mean you can select a full spectrum of backlight colours – from bright red to deep purple and everything in between, even white. Set up three colours so you know your mode state at a glance. Choose your hue using the included Logitech Profiler Software.

18 Programmable G-keys – Hordes of macros
You’ve got 18 programmable G-keys with three modes each for up to 54 macros per game. Set single keypresses, intricate macros, text blocks, mouse events or Lua scripts. Tocreate more macros on the fly; hit the MR key, choose a G-key, enter your keystrokes, and hit the MR key again to finish recording.

Integrated USB Audio – on-board audio
Separate 3.5mm mic and headphone jacks let you use any analog headset as a USB audio device. You’ll get VOIP audio through your headset and game audio through your speakers. There’s also separate mute buttons for headphones, the mic, and your system, so can kill the com channel without masking game sound.

Game/Desktop mode – stay focused
Don’t let desktop menus break up your game. The Game/Desktop mode switch disables the Windows/Context Menu keys so you won’t get kicked to the Windows desktop accidentally.

Multi-key input – Issue commands
Multi-key input. Anti-ghosting capabilities. No matter what you call it, you can press, at a minimum, five keys at the same time and they’ll all get recongnised.

Full-speed USB
A 500MHz (2ms) report rate makes the G510 four times faster than other gaming keyboards. For the performance you need when every millisecond counts.

Your game, your profile
Logitech Profiler detects active game, so you G-keys have a different configuration profile for each game. You can also create multiple profiles per game with scripting for advanced macro functionality, backlighting control, and more.

Instant media access
Convenient one-touch controls give you instant access to volume control and media play-back.

Straight keyboard layout
A familiar layout features full-height keys with standard placement for the Enter key, Page Up/Page Down six-pack and arrow keys.
