Device Latency Breakdown
Time to detect key position changes.
MCU processes scan data internally.
USB polling rate interval.
Lower Latency for
Faster Response
The higher the scan rate, the more frequently the keyboard checks switch position changes. This allows key actuations to be detected earlier and processed with greater consistency, delivering quicker feedback and achieving very low input latency in real gaming and typing scenarios.
More Precise and
Stable Rapid Trigger
At a 32K scan rate, even slight finger lifts are captured instantly and reliably, allowing the switch to reset with exceptional accuracy. The result is finer actuation steps, repeatable trigger behavior, and a predictable feel — ensuring stable rapid triggering during fast-paced, high-precision input.
Optimized Architecture
for 32K Scanning
To support 32K scanning without increasing processing latency, M1 V5 HE adopts a re-architected logic framework. With 15 dedicated logic ICs offloading auxiliary tasks from the MCU, processing load is reduced, ensuring lower TProcessing and stable high-speed performance,even under extreme data throughput.
0.005mm Precision
Achieve ultra-accurate 0.005mm Rapid Trigger and adjustable actuation distance in 0.005mm step. Fine-tune your typing or gaming experience.
8K Polling Rate
With an 8000Hz polling rate in both wired and 2.4G wireless modes, the M1 V5 Hall Effect Keyboard delivers ultra-fast response times and smooth, precise inputs. This ensures every keystroke is accurately registered, making it ideal for competitive gaming and high-performance tasks requiring speed and precision.
Rapid Trigger
Rapid Trigger allows dynamic adjustment of keys’ actuation and deactivation points. Using the MonsGeek Driver, users can select “All Buttons” or “Per Button” customization modes, and enable “Continuous Rapid Trigger” for near-instant key response, giving FPS gamers a decisive advantage in fast-paced gameplay scenarios.
Turbo Mode
Turbo Mode can be enabled for quick recognition and easy management of keys. Keys with Turbo Mode activated are marked with a “flash” icon, so they’re easy to spot at a glance. For example, assigning Turbo Mode to WASD enhances responsiveness and significantly improves the overall gaming experience.
RT Stabilizer
The “RT Stabilizer” mode is most effective when Rapid Trigger precision is 0.01mm or smaller, as magnetic keyboards can register unintended inputs from slight hand tremors. Activating this mode helps maintain consistent performance and a smoother, uninterrupted gaming experience.
・Reset：Fixed Position
・Reset：By adjusting the RT sensitivity,even the slightest upward movement will immediately reset.
→ after the reset, pressing down again will instantly retrigger.

Snap Key
Snap Key is MonsGeek’s implementation of SOCD, prioritizing the most recent keypress for swift directional changes without releasing previous inputs. This ensures fluid, responsive control in FPS games, where quick reactions and precise movement are crucial.
Mod-Tap
Mod Tap is a design that provides convenience for gaming. It enables the creation of dedicated or dual-functional keys based on key press behavior. A single keypress can achieve two functions: holding down the key for one function, and pressing the key for another, improving efficiency and control.
Dynamic Keystrokes
Pressing a key can trigger four different key operations.Depending on your keypress force: a light press triggers action 1, a deeper press activates action 2, and releasing the key also supports a two-stage key setting.This multi-stage input design enhances key more flexible control.
Toggle Key (TGL)
TGL, or Toggle Key, transforms a key into a toggle switch. When you press this switch, you can activate one of two scenarios: either continuously hold down the key/function, or trigger the key/function multiple times at a high frequency, improving overall efficiency.
