This week I have been putting the Knucker gaming keyboard from TteSports to the test, but this one is a little different to a lot of gaming keyboards on the market as it sets to combine some of the benefits of membrane keyboards with some of the benefits of a mechanical keyboard, yet its going to do it all for a very reasonable price tag, I aim to find out if it's managed to succeed.
A quick search on Google will find you the Knucker available for around £35 including delivery and that sounds like pretty amazing value for a gaming keyboard, especially one from a well-respected brand such as TteSports. Of course for those of you who haven't heard of TteSports before, they are the gaming orientated branch of Thermaltake, who are one of the most popular chassis and component manufacturers on the market, but their gaming brand TteSports have been working at the grass roots level within the pro gaming and eSports scene, even sponsoring a few gaming teams along the way such as Team Infused.
TteSports are building a firm fan base and a good reputation thanks to their strong affiliation with pro gamers, eSports and of course the millions of fans who follow the sport, attend events and of course play the games themselves. Gamers always want the best peripherals to enjoy their game with and if they're priced fairly and performance is up to scratch, then a product can get very popular very quickly, so its important to get these things right.

Most people i know are not very much into gaming and computers in general (surprise) so they always use cost effective, mainstream level keyboards which usually last just a couple of years at best. Gamers however and enthusiast alike have a plethora of gaming keyboards to choose from to cover their needs from impressive ones filled with bells and whistles such as the ones manufactured by Logitech and Roccat and from the more durable ones such as the Mechanical Keyboards manufactured by SteelSeries, Razer, Qpad and TteSports. Today we will be taking a thorough look at the latest Mechanical Keyboard offering by TteSports that listens to the name MEKA G-UNIT.

TteSports are one of the most popular names in the PC peripheral business. Time and time again, they’ve proven that they can make incredibly competitive products, for competitive prices. Today they’re going all-out with their new Poseidon Z Forged, a premium grade product that promises a lot of cool features that will appeal to both at-home gamers and eSports gamers alike.

Competitive gaming is big business, quite literally big business too as peripheral brands, pro gaming teams and their related sponsors fight for the lime light much like they do in any other sports. Year on year were seeing huge advances in the popularity of eSports and this has been backed up by an even more robust range of gaming peripherals than have ever been seen in the PC industry.

The release of strong and popular game titles in the market almost always marks the release of several gaming related peripherals by many manufacturers, some of which are even designed after a specific game to maximize exposure. Just over month ago Bioware released the final chapter of their popular Mass Effect trilogy and although it was indeed a great game and offered many things not found in the past 2 titles still the ending was far from what anyone expected (honestly i never want that game to end so i hope we see an ME4 soon). In 3 weeks we also expect Diablo III yet another popular game title to get released. Unfortunately Diablo III has been in the works for far too many years (Blizzard used to be a lot faster) and so all of its excited fans are certain to devour pretty much every gaming peripheral launched under its name. Thermaltake and more specifically TteSports have yet to release a product based on a game title (which i agree is not what really matters with any product) and instead they just launched the Saphira gaming mouse we have here with us today.

For those of you who are avid readers of eTeknix, you've seen how quickly eTeknix has grown in terms of content and of course, staff members. Our team has grown by huge amounts, allowing us to produce more content than ever before for both news and reviews.

It was only a few months ago that we reviewed the Theron mouse, where we awarded it our Bang For Buck Award. It wasn't perfect in terms of sensor quality, but it offered performance and quality that far exceeded its price range. Now TteSports have revisited the mouse, given it a new sensor and now it is time to get it back on the test bench and see just what it is capable of.
TteSports have been taking the gaming peripherals world by storm in the last couple of years and they've won plenty of awards from us here at eTeknix, but also from many other major review websites and for good reason too. They've produced some of the most reasonably priced products on the markets, without compromising on features and performance and we are hoping to see those same values in the Theron Infrared today.
Were not expecting much new with the Theron, after all it is just a new edition of their other Theron mouse, the hardware looks pretty much the same, but the big question is, will the new sensor be a minor change or will it take the Theron to the next level of performance?

TteSports are back on eTeknix once again, this time with their latest gaming mouse, the rather unique looking Ventus X. The Ventus is tuned for gaming performance and comes with a bunch of funky features that will help you dominate in the digital battlefield of choice, but we’ll get to taking a closer look at those in a few moments.

TteSports are making big impressions in the gaming world, especially when it comes to eSports. They’ve been integral to the eSports community and its development for years now, both through sponsorship deals, operating gaming teams of their own and by creating some great peripherals that have proven popular with both the premium and budget ends of the eSports market.
While they may cater to the high-end with their Level 10m headset, or mechanical keyboards, they also have the best range in terms of price vs performance on the market. Their mice and keyboards are often some of the cheapest on the market and still offer impressive performance. Value for money and great performance are becoming the hallmarks of a Tt product, so they will be the two main things I’m looking for today.
One extra feature that has become the norm for TteSports is novelty, a little fun twist that makes them stand out from the crowd and that is something that is truly apparent on the Volos which features “console style” buttons on the side, an interesting diversion from the usual configurations and I really can’t wait to see how they perform in a gaming environment. Lets move on then, get this thing out of the box and see just what it has to offer.
