In competition, the right equipment often makes all the difference.

AGON and AOC peripherals similarly enable competition-level performance, while providing complimentary design for a striking desktop system look.

As we continue our growth in the eSports and gaming space, adding these high performance and highly customizable products to our gaming arsenal is a seminal moment," says David Ray, Director of Marketing at AOC North America.

AGON Performance Gaming Peripherals Suite
AGON Competition-Grade Mechanical Keyboard with MX Cherry Blue Switches (AGK700)
The premium AGON Tournament Grade Mechanical Keyboard with MX CHERRY Blue Switches (AGK700) includes 115 high-quality double injection molded keycaps, with CHERRY MX Blue switches for better audible and tactile feedback, and also features n-key rollover and 100% anti-ghosting. It offers a USB pass through (1x USB 2.0), as well as a sleek, circular volume wheel in the aggressive red that gamers know from AOC's AGON monitor line-up. The aluminium body of the AGK700 is built tough for high-energy competitions. All keys are programmable and the custom keyboard layout can be recorded on-board. Users can save up to 5 profiles via AOC G-Tools software. Once set-up, the profiles can be selected on-the-fly without the need to access AOC G-Tools.

The AGK700 also comes with a magnetic, detachable wrist rest with a leather finish for a premium feel. Dedicated macro keys allow the keyboard to control gaming modes (RTS, FPS, Racing) and RGB illumination on supporting monitors, bringing the whole AGON ecosystem together. The light synchronization allows the entire set up, from the monitor to the mouse, keyboard and mouse mat, to pulse with color in unison. Users can choose from lighting effects that include breathing, radar, fireworks, wave, or W wave. The AGK700 includes an extra set of W, A, S, D keys and a braided USB cable with a gold-plated connector (USB 2.0 Type A).

The left and right buttons feature OMRON switches with a lifetime of 50 million actuations. With the on-the-fly DPI switch, users can switch between DPIs easily. Additionally, with the dedicated DPI sniper button, a lower DPI can be selected with a single button to track opponents more precisely, especially helpful when sniping in shooter games. The weight of the mouse can be fine-tuned with five included weights (1g per unit) to achieve optimal tactility and traction. AGM700's customizable RGB LED offers 16.8 million colors, which can be synchronized with other AOC peripherals. All eight buttons of the AGM700 are customizable via AOC G-Tools software, and three custom profiles can be recorded on-board through the mouse so it can be used in other PCs without the software. The AGM700 comes with a 1.8m braided USB cable and gold-plated connector.

The AGON AMM700 mouse mat rounds out the AOC AGON gaming suite. Its micro-textured cloth surface allows mice to glide smoothly over its surface, while providing accurate tracking feedback.

The surrounding RGB LED can be customized with 16.8 million colors, features four lighting effects, and can be synchronized with the other AOC peripherals/ monitors via the G-Tools software, thanks to the 32-bit micro-controller unit.
