Source12Measurementlttlabs.com/compare/CHILKEYND104-vs-corsair-vanguard-pro-96Read 7 October 2026Actual public Chilkey ND104 versus Vanguard Pro 96 comparison, Vanguard column, Performance Latency: Avg. Latency (Wired) 0.8 ms. Mean, not minimum. Test Configuration firmware 1.4.110, software 1.1.180, debounce 0 ms. Product maximum wired polling 8000 Hz plus LTT method highest supported polling establish tested 8000 Hz. Method uses microcontroller-driven solenoid/copper contact detection and Beagle USB 480 analyzer to timestamp individual key contact versus matching USB report. Exact actuation distance, Rapid Trigger state, individual key and aggregation are not published. No default or numeric actuation is inferred. https://www.lttlabs.com/articles/2025/12/03/how-labs-conducts-keyboard-testing.16Measurementrtings.com/keyboard/reviews/corsair/vanguard-pro-96Read 7 October 2026Row 2 only. Actual public Raw Performance prose explicitly states effective update rate tops out at 2000 Hz while advertised polling is 8000 Hz. Wired Vanguard Pro 96, methodology 1.4.3. This is the rate of new input updates, not the advertised USB polling rate. No locked individual results used. Exact tested firmware, numeric actuation/debounce/RT settings and cable for this run are not stated. Review reports cable/firmware issues. No single/multi/chord/release latency is inferred or mixed with LTT row 1.17Measurementrtings.com/keyboard/learn/how-we-testRead 7 October 2026Method for row 2 effective-update result: raw keyboard USB output checked with Beagle USB 480 analyzer to determine maximum effective input-update rate and rollover. Keyboard performance preparation minimizes debounce, adjustable actuation and Rapid Trigger, enables low-latency/competition mode, disables RGB effects, and uses highest supported scan/polling. This general method does not provide missing model-specific numeric settings or firmware. LTT row 1 remains separate.
