What will you mostly use it for?
The Wooting 80HE is the more focused choice for gaming, with magnetic Hall Effect switches and an 8000 Hz polling rate. The ROG Azoth leads in the categories where wireless connectivity, Mac and Windows support, or onboard controls matter. Its switch options and listed lubing kit also make it the more flexible starting point for switch experimentation. Both share a 75% ANSI layout and hot-swappable capability, but their switch systems are not interchangeable.
