The ASUS SCAR II GL504 has a carbon-fiber design running over the whole C-board with a camo print overlay on one half.

There’s an appropriate numpad on the SCAR II which is continually something to anticipate. Also, the bolt keys bulge out by one column which makes them simple to discover without looking down. With non-standard designs like what we see here, having such markers assists with the general client encounter. Talking about markers, the WASD keys are translucent so you’ll see them regardless. In any case, much the same as the RGB strip on the front, these have a tendency to be a little in your face.
In conclusion, we have the trackpad with physically discernable catches for the left and right snap.
