S.T.R.I.K.E. 2 RGB Gaming Keyboard

The Mad Catz S.T.R.I.K.E. 2 is a membrane gaming keyboard with a 104-key layout and a toughened aluminum faceplate. It features per-key RGB illumination with nine built-in lighting effects and adjustable brightness and speed settings. A 26-key matrix anti-ghosting design ensures simultaneous keystrokes register accurately during play. Twelve dedicated shortcut keys handle media controls and a Windows lock function.

Membrane switch upgrade with aluminum frame

This model replaces a basic membrane keyboard by adding a rigid aluminum alloy frame that resists flex and a 1.6 m cable for flexible desk routing. The jump is worth it when you want RGB lighting and anti-ghosting without the cost of mechanical switches. The 1083 g weight keeps the board stable during rapid keystrokes.

Suited for RGB-focused membrane users

Buyers who prefer a quieter membrane feel with full-size layout and dedicated media keys will find this a good fit. The Windows 7, 8 and 10 support covers most current systems. Users who need mechanical actuation, per-key programmable macros or software-driven lighting profiles should look at other options.

Questions about this item

Will the 17.72" width fit on a compact desk?

The keyboard measures 17.72" wide by 6.22" deep, so measure your usable desk space against those dimensions before buying.

Does the 1.6M cable reach a rear motherboard USB port on a full-tower case?

Route the 1.6M cable before plugging it in; the common mistake is connecting it while the keyboard sits in its final spot, leaving no slack for strain relief.

How do I clean the membrane switches and aluminum faceplate?

Use compressed air for dust between the 104 keys and a lightly damp microfibre cloth on the toughened aluminum faceplate; avoid liquid near the membrane layer.
