It ranks mainly on source trust: TechPowerUp is the most reliable outlet we track on this subject, and is the only one on the story so far.

Single-sourced. No second organisation has confirmed it yet.

Link-outLink-out, because only one organisation carries it and no first-party source is on it and the subject could not be identified from the text. Link-out means we point at the publisher and say nothing of our own.

Corroboration counts distinct organisations, once each, and only from tiers 1 and 2. Freshness halves every 10 hours, so this ranking is a snapshot and will differ at the next build.

What happened

It seems as though Iqunix is finally getting serious about its Hall effect gaming keyboards, with firmware updates becoming more frequent for keyboards like the EV63. The latest firmware update for the EV63 HE keyboard adds controller emulation, a feature that has otherwise only been available from a handful of HE keyboard makers, including Wooting, GravaStar, and Keychron. Controller emulation is called Gamepad Mode in the Iqunix EV63 HyperCore software, and it allows users to assign controller bindings to keyboard keys, which is particularly useful in games that allow for walking or driving at different speeds depending on how far a joystick is moved or how deep an analogue trigger is depressed.
