Compact TKL gaming keyboard

The SteelSeries Apex 3 TKL is a wired membrane keyboard built for gaming and daily use. Its tenkeyless layout removes the number pad to free up desk space for wider mouse movement. Whisper-quiet switches deliver virtually silent actuation rated for over 20 million presses.

Upgrade from full-size or loud keyboards

This model replaces a full-size board when desk space is tight or a quieter typing experience is needed. The jump is worth it if you want anti-ghosting reliability and a 60g trigger force that mimics a mechanical feel without the noise. It also adds 8-zone RGB lighting for visual customisation.

Check USB port and layout preference

Ensure your system has an available USB port for the wired connection. Verify that a tenkeyless layout suits your workflow, as the dedicated number pad is absent. Confirm that membrane switches with a 60g actuation force match your preferred typing resistance.

Questions about this item

Does the tenkeyless frame fit a standard keyboard tray?

The compact TKL layout removes the numeric block, giving you extra desk room for mouse movement and fitting most standard trays.

How do I connect it and what step do people miss?

Plug the wired USB cable into your PC; the keyboard works instantly with no driver install, but remember to download the SteelSeries Engine software if you want to customise the 8-zone RGB lighting.

When will the switches need attention?

The whisper-quiet membrane switches are rated for 20 million actuations, so under normal gaming use they should last years before any degradation appears.
