NZXT,  a leader in PC gaming hardware and services, today announces a new step into the peripheral market with the Function Modular Mechanical Keyboard and the Lift Lightweight Ambidextrous mouse. NZXT will also be adding a deeper customization service to NZXT BLD allowing users to ensure their system and set-up can fit their unique style. 

Mr. Naqui Ahmad – Business Manager South Asia updated that the NZXT Function keyboard is a low-profile keyboard with an aluminum body designed to allow users to tailor their experiences to fit their personal preferences. It includes customizable features that the custom keyboard community looks for, like hot-swappable switches, detachable USB C cable, and standard bottom rows. This allows users to finely tune their board to their exact color, sound, and feel. 

The NZXT Lift lightweight ambidextrous mouse is a minimalist mouse designed for gamers. Each Lift mouse is packed with a High-end PixArt 3389 optical sensor and Omron switches which allows for the speed and ease of use that keeps players competitive. Both products have RGB lighting that is controllable via NZXT CAM, allowing for further customization so that users can match their system lighting and peripheral lighting with ease. Additionally, mouse pads will be on sale on NZXT.com in three sizes and colors for further customization of their setup. 

Mr. Ahmad added that in countries where NZXT BLD is present users can customize their Function Keyboard, for a $9.99 service fee, and Lift Mouse and have them shipped to them directly. It will allow users to change their base colors, switches, accent keycaps, and cable colors and have them shipped to you with options not available found in retail Function keyboards. And allow for Lift mouse users to purchase a mouse with an accent color and cable of their choosing.
