About this deal

The software that comes with this keyboard is really easy to use. Through software you can assign keys and edit macros seamlessly. Are these the best PBT keycaps to come with a prebuilt mechanical keyboard? Nope. Are they better than almost every keyset found on “gaming” marketed mechanical keyboards. Yes, 100%. Stabilizers Unboxing the product reveals the keyboard along with many accessories and a detailed manual in both English and Chinese. Considering this is a gaming keyboard it needs to be capable of withstanding some pretty heavy abuse on a daily basis. Durgod has produced a really strong product that should be up to the task. Normally at this point I would disassemble the keyboard to examine the internal parts and build quality. Unfortunately I was unable to find a way to remove the top plastic shell from the bottom case without breaking it, and I wasn’t willing to do that. Conclusion On The Durgod Taurus K320 Nebula What’s neat about the USB-C connection of the K320 Nebula is the retention method Durgod has implemented. The Type-C connector that plugs into the keyboard has protruding ridges on each side that slide into grooves molded into the keyboard’s case. This method holds the cable very securely without putting additional pressure on the USB-C port, which is a common failure point of mechanical keyboards. You won’t have any worries in regards to the USB failing due to stress on the port. It’s just one of Durgod’s many simple yet smart design features.

The K320 Nebula already has a slight natural incline, so giving users the choice of a smaller angle adjustment is great. The large feet raised the keyboard too much for my liking, but the smaller feet provide the perfect typing angle according to my own personal preferences. You should be able to find a suitable angle of your own, whether you keep the keyboard flat or make use of the flip-out feet. You have three levels of height adjust: without the feet it sits 1.5-inches high, the small flip-out feet raise it to 1.75-inches and finally the large flip-out feet max the angle at 2-inches high. This keyboard has become one of my favorites for the sheer typing experience alone, and I think it would be an incredible option for working from home or gaming. Lots of accessories, including: 2 USB cables, branded cable tie, dust cover and a wire keycap puller. Mechanical keyboards often come with a few pieces that help get you started, which is really helpful to have everything in one place right when you receive the keyboard.The result is a much quieter typing experience with only a slight hit to key feel compared to non-dampened MX switches. I found the small drop in key travel wasn’t all that perceptible unless you have the two side by side, but bottoming out does result in the keys feeling lightly cushioned. It’s not a huge difference compared to Cherry’s regular MX linear switches, but you do lose just a little crispness. The small loss in key feel is a more than fair trade-off for those who want the mechanical experience, but can’t tolerate the typical noise levels produced from mechanical keyboards. Ideal for office environments, online gaming that requires voice chat or bedroom use ( that sounds kinky…). Keycaps Connectivity is provided by detachable USB Type-C. Type-C is the newest USB standard that has many advantages over the Mini or Micro USB ports found on older mechanical keyboards. USB-C is a more durable connection method that provides higher power delivery, reversible connectors and improved bandwidth capacity over older USB iterations. Two USB Cables: This keyboard comes with two cables, a USB-C to USB-A, and a USB-C to USB-C. While I only have use for former, it is nice that they include the Mac-friendly cable.

In contrast, PBT ( Polybutylene Terephthalate) is a tougher material that retains its texture much longer, doesn’t shine when worn and won’t yellow at all. ABS has merits of its own. It’s cheaper, easier to mold and has more color options making it a popular material for aftermarket keysets. However, PBT is generally viewed as a superior keycap material for longevity. Velcro cable management attachment: A little handy item that can help deal with unruly cables, this attachment can be placed on your desk to keep cables from getting in the way of your setup. The keycaps are floating, which means the base of the switches are exposed. With this keycap style, hair and small particles may collect easily in crevices and under keycaps, but this also means that it is very easy to clean.This particular Durgod gaming keyboard also has a secret hidden under the hood. Silenced Cherry MX linear switches for much quieter gaming experiences and tolerable noise levels for typing in the workplace. Just how quiet are they? Does a dampened switch hurt the key feel? Let’s find out…

A smaller set of flip-out feet is inset inside the larger ones ( hence the 2-stage design). This smaller set of inset flip-out feet only raise the keyboard an additional quarter inch, from 1.5-inches without feet to 1.75 inches with the smaller feet flipped out. Let me start by saying that this keyboard has a super sleek, pleasing appearance. I sometimes find tenkeyless keyboards to be clunky and We have the space grey color scheme, which is a nice two-tone grey design. The K320 has a no-frills yet appealing aesthetic, perfect for an office or any other professional environment. A two-tone keycap design and high-contrast legends contribute to this functional, sleek look. The switches are really the selling point for the Durgod K320. On afforadable keyboards especially, it really seems like a toss-up on whether the stabilizers will be rattly or smooth. With an extraordinarily smooth typing feel, the Durgod K320 is an affordable tenkeyless keyboard that exceeds expectations.

The Durgod’s larger keys and spacebar use plate-mounted Cherry stabilizers. Cherry stabs really need to be properly lubed (and possibly clipped) before they can provide the best key feel that isn’t mushy with rattle. Also keep in mind plate-mount stabilizers will require you to desolder the key switch should you need to remove the stabs for clipping or adding lubrication. Increasingly Mac users are ditching their Apple keyboards and seeking the more comfortable and satisfying experience of mechanical keyboards. This makes it difficult to fit other cables than the ones included, but the cable management paths allow you to direct the cable out of sides or middle to fit what works with your setup. Underneath the Durgod keyboard you’ll notice an integrated three-way cable gutter. These are excellent tools for cable management. The channels hold the cable in place without putting stress on the connector and allows the cable to exit the keyboard in three directions (left/right side or the middle) depending on the needs of your setup. My only complaint about the structure is the location of the USB port, it is on the bottom of the keyboard in a recessed area.
