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 customisation service to NZXT BLD allowing users to ensure their system and set-up can fit their unique style.

The NZXT Function keyboard is a low-profile keyboard with an aluminium body designed to allow users to tailor their experiences to fit their personal preferences. It includes customisable 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 colour, 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 customisation so that users can match their system lighting and peripheral lighting with ease. Additionally, mouse pads will be on sale on NZXT.com and at local retailers in three sizes and colours for further customisation of their setup.

 In countries where NZXT BLD is present users can customise 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 colours, switches, accent keycaps, and cable colours 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 colour and cable of their choosing.
