I've never understood the need for backlit keys, if you are a shit typer and need to look at the keyboard, you shouldn't need a mechanical in the first place.

Just go with a cheap rubber dome that has HHUUURRR DUUURR FANCY LIGHTS.

I went with mechanical because of NKRO, better keypress accuracy, and longer life. If you are a shitty typer you probably don't need any of those.

EDIT: Let me rephrase, you won't need any of those.


I needs me dem lights.
But maybe in future there will be a better selection
Would only be going mechanical for increased durability and responsiveness. But gotta have dem hurrr durrr fancy lights.
And I'm not a shitty typer, but its not like I'm writing a book. Don't want to accidently send a sad face instead of a happy one. Could cause drama

NKRO really isnt for typing...



lolwat.

I'll never understand the facination with blank keys other than not wanting to feel any letter on the key.

Hope you bought a duster for your das :P  Needs cleaned so damn often to stay shiny :p


NKRO isn't for typing? Someone is a slow typist ^.^

Blank keys are sexy. Plus, use logic. If you don't look down at your keyboard, do you really need anything there? Unless of course you're Ghot and can only type like a gorilla (no offense ghot, you know it's true), printed keycaps are not needed.

We have gotten pretty elitist about keyboards around here, and I honestly think its a good thing. Keyboards are the most used item of your computer (apart from the mouse), but it usually gets as much attention as power supplies (which are equally important).

Just think about it for a sec. Would you rather spend $80 on a keyboard that would last maybe 5 years and start to feel shitty after a few, or spend $100-150 and have a keyboard that will feel new for 10+ years?

*numbers involving times are estimations and are varied depending on how much you type.

I gotta agree with this.

I've gone through so many keyboards before I went mechanical. Of course they were always really cheap rubber membrane, but then again all rubbers domes are essentially manufactured the same. There is probably very little difference from a $20 board and a $100 FANCY LIGHTS N SCREENS N SHIT CAAWWW OOOO DDOOODDDYYY Logitech/Razer board

Now my words per minute, accuracy, etc have all gone up and best of all I never have to replace this board in the foreseeable future.

And I only spent $100 on it since I got the student discount through Das.
