Which is better for typing all day?

The Razer BlackWidow V4 75% is the easier pick for long sessions because it includes a wrist rest and keeps arrow and function keys. The HyperX is fine for typing if you are comfortable with 60% layers.

Which is better for FPS gaming?

The HyperX Alloy Origins 60 gives more room for mouse movement and has a shorter 1.8mm actuation point. The Razer's 2mm actuation is close, so pick it if you want the extra keys.

Is the Razer worth the extra money?

At $129.99 at Best Buy as of November 8, 2026, the Razer adds a wrist rest, a 75% layout, and macOS support. Whether that is worth it depends on the HyperX's current price, which was not given.

Which one lasts longer?

Both use hot-swappable mechanical switches, so a failed switch can be replaced on either board. Neither listing gives a durability rating, so switch replacement matters more than brand here.

Can I use either with a Mac?

The Razer BlackWidow V4 75% lists macOS and Linux support. The HyperX Alloy Origins 60 lists only Windows 7 through 10.

Do both have RGB lighting?

The Razer lists multicolor RGB backlighting. The HyperX listing does not state backlighting, so confirm that before buying if lighting matters to you.
