# ATK RS6 Ultra+ Keyboard

The [ATK RS6 Ultra+](https://www.atk.store/products/atk-rs6-plus-series-aluminum-magnetic-switch-keyboard?variant=47689321808090) is my daily driver. This 65% keyboard supports a wired-only connection that delivers premium performance at a very reasonable cost.

The performance specifications speak for themselves, and I have yet to find another keyboard to rival them:

- **0.08ms** Minimum Transmission Latency
- **0.28ms** End-to-End Latency
- **8KHz** Polling Rate
- **256KHz** Extreme Scanning Rate
- **0.001mm** RT Precision

Typing over 100 words per minute isn't breaking any world records, but I'm quite content when I do.

All [RS6 series keyboards](https://www.atk.store/products/atk-rs6-plus-series-aluminum-magnetic-switch-keyboard?variant=47689321808090) share the same underlying PCB and can be easily customized with ATK's configuration software, which rivals Wooting's Wootility.

I purchased the RS6+ and RS6 Ultra+ in their own variants: [Spectral Ranger](https://www.atk.store/products/atk-rs6-plus-series-aluminum-magnetic-switch-keyboard?variant=47689321808090), [White Shadow Warrior](https://www.atk.store/products/atk-rs6-plus-series-aluminum-magnetic-switch-keyboard?variant=47689319809242), and Leviatan.

The sound profiles are similar, and all are a little louder than I would've expected. I prefer keycaps with backlit legends, although the keyboard's theme would be lost. I have tried several different keycaps, and [Womier's PBT Shine Through Keycaps](https://hashnode.com/draft/6ad462d2b8acba4c804079a2) worked best for me.

The differences between the RS6 keyboards pertain to the switches and case finish. The Snowblades are close rivals to my favourite Gateron Spark HE switches.

I highly recommend the ATK RS6 series keyboards, and as I mentioned at the start of the post, it is my daily driver.
