Best for

What will you mostly use it for?

The Glorious PC is a more suitable fit for buyers prioritizing ISO layout availability, full N-key rollover, or its DIY/barebones listing. The RK84 leads for flexible desk setups and travel, with wireless modes, a battery, and USB pass-through. Both list hot-swap support and media controls, but those shared features do not resolve the main choice. Neither model includes a numpad.

For gaming

Pick the Glorious PC

  • The Glorious PC vendor description specifies full N-key rollover.
  • The RK84 lists a 1000 Hz polling rate, but the Glorious PC's wired-only connection may suit buyers who do not need wireless modes.
