Playing video games for an extended length of time on a computer or console can certainly takes its toll on your body. In a matter of hours, your back, waist and legs could get stiff from sitting, your eyes feel strained and tear up from staring at the game screen and your hands get tired and perspire from using a controller or keyboard. As a gamer myself, I’ve found that sweaty hands is one of the most common issues I face when playing video games. Well, if you hate dealing with hot, perspiring hands during your game-playing, then Thermaltake has a solution for you.

They created a gaming keyboard called the Challenger, which actually comes with a small fan. This fan is a 6,000rpm unit designed to connect to the top of the keyboard’s panel and it sends cool air across the keyboard to relieve your hot, sweaty hands. The keyboard also has two USB ports and a headphone and mic jack on its back. Furthermore, the Challenger comes in three different models, which each have individual characteristics. The Challenge Ultimate has the most features, which include 256 backlight cool options, 64KB of memory and fourteen macro keys. The mid-range Challenger Pro comes with only ten macro keys and the entry level Challenger offers six macro keys along with 32KB of memory.

According to a marketing representative, all three versions of the Challenger are available for a retail price of under $100 and the Pro model in particular is in the $65 range. In addition to this gaming keyboard, Thermaltake is featuring a red-glowing, 4000dpi Black gaming mouse as well. With this keyboard, you might finally be able to spend more time enjoying your video game and less time having to rub sweat off of your hands.
