What Keyboard Does SypherPK Use?

SypherPK's keyboard history

SypherPK has had two keyboards in this timeline, with one switch between them. The ROCCAT Vulcan TKL Pro was his board for 30.9 months (2.6 years), from September 2022 to April 2025. That is the longest period on the list.

In April 2025 he moved to the Razer Huntsman V3 Pro Mini, which he still uses after 18.5 months (1.5 years). Neither keyboard has been picked up a second time, so the current board is the only one he has stayed on since leaving the Vulcan.

Switches and actuation

The Huntsman V3 Pro Mini is sold with Razer Analog Optical switches, and that is the only switch option listed for the model. The PCB is non-hotswappable, so the switches are not meant to be pulled and replaced. Whatever the board ships with is what you live with.

If swapping switches matters to you, the alternatives work differently. Both Wooting boards below are hotswappable and list a wide range of Lekker, Tikken, Wooting x TTC KOM and Geon Raw HE options. The SteelSeries Apex Pro Mini Black uses OmniPoint 2.0 and, like the Huntsman, is non-hotswappable.

Key binds

His Fortnite layout is built around the left hand, and the table shows the full list. Movement stays close to the usual spots: Space Bar for jump, L-Ctrl for crouch, and Caps for sprint, which makes use of a key that is otherwise easy to ignore.

Weapon slots 1 to 5 sit on E, R, C, X and Z, so the slots stay on the keys around the left hand. Building keeps Wall on Q, Trap on T, Roof on L-Shift and Building Edit on F. A 60% board has no dedicated function row or navigation keys, and none of these binds need them.

Should you buy SypherPK's keyboard?

The Huntsman V3 Pro Mini suits anyone who wants a 60% layout with analog optical switches and RGB. The compact footprint is easy to fit on a desk. The trade-off is the non-hotswappable PCB, which means you cannot change switches later.

The alternatives trade size and switch flexibility against each other:

• Wooting 60HE+: 0.2 cm longer, 0.4 cm wider and the same height. It is hotswappable with a long list of Lekker, Tikken, TTC KOM and Geon Raw HE options. 11 pros use it now.
• SteelSeries Apex Pro Mini Black: 1.1 cm shorter, 0.5 cm narrower and 0.24 cm taller. It uses OmniPoint 2.0 on a non-hotswappable PCB, and 8 pros use it now.
• Wooting 60HE v2 Silver: 0.1 cm longer, 0.7 cm wider and 1 cm lower. It is hotswappable with the same switch range as the 60HE+, and 7 pros use it now.

If you want the lowest board of the group, the Wooting 60HE v2 Silver is the one. If you want the smallest footprint, the SteelSeries is shorter and narrower. If you want to experiment with switches, either Wooting is the better fit.
