The overall styling of the Alloy FPS RGB is subdued yet not dull. Hyperx has managed to take a quite plain design and make it interesting by adding a bevelled edge around the frame as well as including subtle branding on the space bar and the top right corner. Size-wise, it’s a fair bit smaller than most full-sized keyboards thanks to the slim border around it. It measures in at 442.26mm (L) x 129.81mm (W) x 35.59mm (H), whereas most others are at least 20 to 30mm longer.


The F keys on the Alloy FPS RGB have secondary functions when pressed in conjunction with the FN key. F1, F2 and F3 are set to cycle through three profiles which can be created in the NGenuity software. F6 through to F10 act as media keys and finally F12 activates the Game mode. Game mode can again be configured via the software, in which you can disable certain keys based upon the title you are playing.


The top right of the keyboard features the HyperX logo as well as three LEDs; these are used to signify when the Game mode, Caps lock and Num lock are activated.


The arrow keys on the Alloy FPS RGB also have a dual purpose as they can be used to adjust the brightness of the illumination.
