We are now tracking a deal at Amazon that drops NZXT’s latest Function Elite MiniTKL keyboard down to $170 shipped. This particular model hit the scene earlier this year in January carrying a $200 price tag alongside the Lift Elite mouse which is also down at $68 right now. This is the first deal we’re tracking on this model, and it delivers a straight-up 15% markdown on its launch price. You can also get this in white, though it’s currently fetching $189.99 shipped with a lighter 5% discount. Head below for more details.

The NZXT Function Elite MiniTKL is one of the latest keyboards on the market featuring Hall effect switches for a better gaming experience. You can use the brand’s CAM software to configure each key’s sensitivity across 40 points. In addition to Rapid Trigger which instantly resets keys “as they travel upward for ultra-fast repeated presses,” this keyboard also has a new feature called Snap Overrides that lets you make quick directional changes, making it particularly useful for things like counter-strafing in games. Other noteworthy features of this keyboard include a space-saving MiniTKL layout, an aluminum chassis for a premium fit and finish, 8K polling rate, customizable RGB lighting, and more.

If you’re looking for alternatives, Logitech’s G515 gaming keyboard is currently going for $109. It’s a low-profile model with slim form factor overall, and it’s down from its usual price of $160.

NZXT Function Elite MiniTKL keyboard features:

• NZXT MAGNETIC SWITCHES — Hall effect sensors, powerful magnets, and fine-tuned firmware precisely track every keystroke, unlocking advanced ways to customize how you game and type
• ADJUSTABLE ACTUATION — Configure per-key sensitivity across 40 points within a 0.6 to 4.0 mm switch travel range—from light taps to deep presses—to suit your style
• ENHANCED GAMEPLAY — Rapid Trigger resets keys instantly as they travel upward for ultra-fast repeated presses, while Snap Overrides prioritizes your last input between A and D for seamless counter-strafing
• 8K POLLING RATE — Sends input signals to your PC 8,000 times per second, ensuring near-zero latency for instant in-game actions
• SATISFYING SOUND & FEEL — Sound-dampening foam and a tape-enhanced PCB create “thocky” acoustics, while the gasket mount design provides a soft, cushioned typing experience
• SMOOTH & STABLE — Dual-rail, pre-lubricated switches ensure quiet, wobble-free keystrokes, and custom stabilizers on larger keys guarantee consistent performance no matter where you press them
• DURABLE CONSTRUCTION — The heavy-duty aluminum case delivers a premium, rock-solid feel, and double-shot PBT keycaps offer a textured surface with crisp, fade-resistant legends
• VIBRANT LIGHTING — Personalize RGB lighting effects across the 45-LED keyboard perimeter and individual keys, all controlled through NZXT CAM software
