There are a number of manufacturers out there that develop products meant to satisfy and fit the needs of extreme gaming users. This is mainly because this kind of users are in permanent need of gear which can help them improve their gaming skills. Razer is one of those manufacturers, with a slight difference, namely the fact that they only create and manufacture product for extreme and passionate gamers. One of their first attempt at creating a keyboard fit for extreme gaming, was the Tarantula keyboard.



And if your keyboard is dubbed Tarantula, then the name itself might strike some fear in the heart of your virtual enemies. Everything about the keyboard is meant to look and feel good for the passionate gamer, with enough features to keep them satisfied for a long period. The black Tarantula keyboard features a blue Razer logo on its palm rest, so your competition will know you pack some serious gear.



One of the most important features on a gaming keyboard is represented by its programmable keys, which users can setup according to different gaming requirements. And the Razer Tarantula packs a good 10 keys which can be used for user configuration. Another important feature concerning the keys of the Tarantula keyboard is that they are meant to be eight times as responsive compared those installed on normal keyboards, due to the fact that the Tarantula has been created using 1000Hz Ultrapolling technology. And because setting the keyboard make take some time, the 32KB of memory will ensure the user of up to five onboard profiles kept by the keyboard itself.



Gaming sometimes has its negative parts and when the action really gets intense, users tend to press more keys at once, which will make possible the appearance of the “ghosting” effect. The Tarantula is said to support up to 10 keys pressed at once, without the “ghosting” effect. You can acquire the keyboard for an approximate price tag that settles around $90.
