ROG Falchion Ace HFX | COMPACT & SWIFT

The ROG Falchion Ace HFX is a compact 65% analog gaming keyboard that features the ROG HFX Magnetic Switches with a customizable actuation range of 0.1 - 4.0 mm, along with a dedicated Rapid Trigger toggle for the fastest typing response. An 8000 Hz polling rate ensures ultra-responsive performance, making the Falchion Ace HFX considerably faster than competitor keyboards. Five-layer dampening and a silicone gasket mount absorb pinging noises and vibrations, delivering a superior typing experience. A multifunction button and interactive touch panel enable intuitive adjustments to actuation points, along with effortless control over media playback, volume, and keyboard lighting. Dual USB-C® ports on the left and right rear of the keyboard offer flexible connectivity, with a quick-toggle to seamlessly switch between two PCs.

Compact 65% Form Factor

Top Housing

PC top housing with the stem contact areas highly polished to ensure keystroke smoothness.

Stem Material

Made of composite POM material with low friction coefficient for smooth keystrokes.

Stem Design

The walled stem design enhances keystroke stability and protects against dust intrusion, while maintaining compatibility with most keycaps.

Customizable Actuation Point

The ROG HFX Magnetic Switches offer an adjustable actuation range from 0.1 to 4.0 mm to cater to all typing preferences. Tweaking the actuation point can be done via the multi-function button and touch panel, or through Armoury Crate software.

Rapid Trigger

A dedicated toggle switch on the top-right rear panel of the ROG Falchion Ace HFX activates the Rapid Trigger feature for the fastest typing response and key repeat rate. By default, only WASD keys are enabled when this feature is activated. Rapid Trigger for other keys can be enabled via Armoury Crate.

Traditional mechanical switches require a return to the reset point before the next click registers. With ROG HFX Magnetic Switches and the Rapid Trigger feature, the switch resets instantly as it moves upward, delivering maximum counter-strafing potential with minimal effort.

Speed Tap Mode

In Speed Tap mode, as soon as the system detects the input of two keys (e.g. A and D), it will prioritize the last input and automatically release the previous one. This means that in FPS games, pressing two opposing directional keys will no longer cause the character to stop moving. Instead, directional changes can now be done immediately without releasing the previous key, eliminating any time gap for counter-strafing and ensuring precise aim every time.

8000 Hz Polling Rate

A high-speed USB microcontroller delivers an 8000 Hz polling rate that refreshes input up to 8X faster than most gaming keyboards, reducing delay from 1 millisecond to a mere 0.125 ms.
