Gigabyte's new gaming mouse and keyboard look great and all, but can we get a round of applause for its web software

Overview & Key Takeaways

And yes, that's a split space bar, too.

For Computex 2026, Gigabyte has just announced a new gaming keyboard called the Aorus K10 Infinity and a similarly named Aorus M10 Infinity gaming mouse, alongside some new web-based software for them. Both the mouse and keyboard are available in black or white. To my eyes, at least, they both look in line with what we'd want from serious gaming peripherals in 2026, at least in terms of design and specs. We'll have to wait and see if they actually deliver the goods regarding performance and feel, though.

The TKL keyboard will have "tactical" magnetic switches, apparently: "Built with tactical magnetic switches, it supports 0.1 mm trigger-point adjustment, multi-stage trigger settings, custom macros, an 8000 Hz polling rate, and a 100-million-time keystroke lifespan."

More notable than this, though—and certainly more notable than the 8k polling, which is overkill even for esports—is the triple-button space bar. Split space bars are something we're starting to see more often, and our Jacob Ridley reckons they're gonna be the next big thing.

The idea is to be able to have a couple of extra keys free once you figure out which thumb you use to press the space bar and bind 'space' to just that side. I'm not so sure, myself, because even while writing these last couple of paragraphs, I've noticed I do sometimes use my right thumb even though I mostly use my left. But I've not tried a split keeb, so I can't say for sure.

The keyboard has an OLED touchscreen, too, which apparently is best used for its "built-in Combat Power feature." Which "allows users to monitor Actions Per Minute (APM), key mileage, precision, and error count in real time, turning the keyboard into an active interface for gameplay adjustment and self-analysis."

It also has 6, 8, and 13-degree tilt adjustment options. I'm a bit of a 'keep it flat' man, myself, but I know some like to have their keyboards tilted, and the more adjustment the better, I say.

So much for the keyboard. The Aorus M10 Infinity gaming mouse looks a little bit Razer Viper-shaped to me, but that's a very speculative guess based on a single top-down picture. The shadows seem to show a little flaring to the buttons, and the rear end of the mouse seems a little bulbous—more-so than a Viper.

Gigabyte says it has optical switches and 8 kHz polling, though the latter is absolutely unnecessary even for high-level competitive FPS gaming. Still, it's what all mice seem to be aiming for these days.

More than the actual hardware, though, I'm excited by the fact that Gigabyte has also launched a web version of its GiMate software that you can use to adjust all the settings. Apparently, you'll be able to use it for "easier control, performance monitoring, and lighting customization across the AORUS peripheral experience."

I've tested a bunch of different software for gaming mice, and my main conclusion is that any gaming mouse that launches these days should come with web software—it's just much more convenient and keeps your machine bloat-free. So there's definitely a big plus here in that respect, at least.
