Our Verdict
Geonworks Venom 60 HE
MonsGeek FUN60 Ultra
The Geonworks Venom 60 HE and the MonsGeek FUN60 HE are high-performance gaming keyboards with magnetic switches. The Geonworks is only available as a custom PCB, so you need to buy all the other required components and build the keyboard yourself. This offers a much greater degree of hardware customizability, but it can be a barrier if you're unfamiliar with building custom keyboards. The MonsGeek, on the other hand, is a pre-built keyboard, making it a much more accessible option. It also supports wireless connectivity via 2.4GHz and Bluetooth and uses TMR sensors, which support both magnetic and mechanical switches. While its performance is also superb, it falls just short of the Geonworks in terms of raw performance.
