Compact 60% Gaming Keyboard & Ultra-Light Mouse Set

This bundle pairs a SteelSeries Apex 9 Mini 60% keyboard with an Aerox 3 gaming mouse. The keyboard uses custom OptiPoint optical switches that actuate 33% faster than standard optical designs with a .2ms response time. Its aluminum alloy frame and double-shot PBT keycaps provide a durable, fade-resistant typing surface in a space-saving layout. The mouse weighs 59g thanks to a perforated shell and features a TrueMove Core sensor.

Ideal for Competitive Gamers Wanting Speed

The 60% form factor frees desk space for large mouse movements, suiting low-sensitivity FPS players. Hot-swappable OptiPoint switches let owners change actuation feel without soldering, while two-point actuation adjustment offers 1mm or 1.5mm registration depths. Buyers who need dedicated function keys, a number pad, or wireless connectivity should consider a different layout.

Build-Ready Peripheral Combo

The keyboard connects via USB and requires no additional software for basic 2-point actuation changes, though PrismSync enables 16.8 million colour RGB customisation across three zones. The Aerox 3 adds IP54-rated water and dust resistance for both its AquaBarrier internals and Golden Micro IP54 switches. Together they deliver an 8,500 DPI sensor and swappable switch ecosystem without mandating specific case dimensions or extra power.

Questions about this item

What type of USB port does the keyboard need to power its RGB lighting and OptiPoint switches?

The keyboard connects via a USB Type-C cable and draws power from any standard USB 2.0 or 3.0 port on your PC.

Will the Aerox 3 mouse glide smoothly on a cloth mousepad I already own?

Yes, the 59g holey shell and PTFE feet are designed for low friction on both cloth and hard pads.

How can I confirm the keyboard's 0.2ms response time is active after plugging it in?

Press a key and verify the input registers instantly on screen; the 0.2ms latency is hardware-level and requires no software toggle.
