What keyboard do you have and use, /g/? Also, fuck the mechanical keyboard thread. Let's just have a general keyboard thread.
I grabbed this for $4 today.

How'd I do, /g/?

>$4
>>51852222
What about it?
>>51852179
Cougar 600k
pok3r with blues.
This beauty. Even defies rage-punches.
My daily driver keyboard is a 60% Leopold with browns.
Ducky shine 4 with MX Clears. Literally sex on my fingers. Feels durable, looks great, would recommend/10.
I use a literal Chinese keyboard with knockoff chinese switches.
What should I cop under $80? Everything seems like for faggot "gaymers" and anyone else can just use $10-20 keyboards perfectly fine.
>>51852179
WASD V2 with blues. Literally baby's first mechanical keyboard...holy shit, the meme is real. Never going back to a rubber dome shitboard again.
Besides, this thing is built like a brick shithouse, feels like it'll last 30 years. As my primary interface with my computer, it feels ridiculous to know I skimped on getting a proper keyboard for so long.
Now, time to get me an IBM model M...
>>51852179
As somebody who owns one, you did fine.
Specifically because of the $4, because that's all it's worth.
Plastic heap of shit with spongy keys that heats up underneath the overly bright logo.

>tfw fucked LEDs
Fuckin
I have Corsair K95 with white LEDs. All of them still work after almost a year.
>There are people who are poor in my keyboard threads
All I fucking want is a 75% keyboard with Browns. Does this even exist?

How's the virgin life?
Got a CODE with greens on the way.I really hope I haven't made a mistake with getting greens over blues.
>>51852179
Quickfire TK with MX browns
>>51856059
dude, nice one. did you hear that from a 13 year old on xbox live? are you gonna say you slept with my mom next?
>>51856104
i DID sleep with your mum
>>51856109
does your uncle work for 4chan, too?
>>51856086
>not getting a tester

Is there a keyset with kana symbols?
>>51856130
No my uncle works for the brothel your mom is part of
He gives me a discount, don't need it though because she's already so cheap
>>51856155
I think you'd have to look on japanese sites for that and my moonrunes are pretty substandard so I can't help you out
>>51852179

Good purchase me boy
Ducky YOTG with MX Browns.
>mfw sad i didn't wait for shine 5 w/ blues
>>51856174
I mean look at this
the girls would be all over me
>>51856086
Just bought an openbox code with clears. Hope it was the right decision.
>>51856230
I'd be all over you too, anon
no homo
>>51856383
I'd maybe let you fondle my shaved balls
no homo as well
>>51856399
that's pretty homo, bro
>>51856415
nah man
>balls not touching
check
>said no homo
check
it's all fine
>>51856230
That looks so ugly, not even mentioning that it doesn't have a proper Japanese keyboard layout.
>>51856421
>balls not touching
but I would be touching your balls
>>51856430
with your hands, not your own balls
learn the difference, it could save your life
protip: missionary gay sex is no homo, since balls can't touch
>>51852247
Anything steelseries usually isn't that cheap.
>>51856436
mate that's not how it works
if my balls touch you or you touch my balls, it's homo
I want switches that are have a solid thump and are quiet. Are clears the right choice?

CM Quickfire TK
Some nice keycaps from signature plastics including G20 ones for the numpad
The plastic body is kinda crap, but I'm pretty sure it's still the only keyboard of it's class, so I'm ok with it for now.
>>51856452
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbYDZWlCBSc
listen to these and see if this is what you're looking for
>>51856473
looks like shite m8
>>51856460
Are topre switches quiet? Can you install o-rings other dampening on them like on cherry switches?
>>51856481
eh, call me when someone makes a hybrid that doesn't suck
>>51856486
see >>51856477
realforces downpress are very silent, most of the noise comes from the upstrike, which you can dampen with a pad
CM's novatouch has a much louder downpress but they allow o rings
>>51856477
>>51856511
Neat. the Realforce sounded nice. I wonder if they make a dampened version like that guys HHKB. If not I guess I can get the Novatouch and some rings.
>>51856545
top one every time
>>51852179
Recently grabbed a Func KB-460 with MX blues, I think it's really worth the price. What does /g/ think?
>>51856552
Are either of these sets being sold right now? I'm out of the loop with groupbuy stuff

>>51856529
novatouch with rings is still louder than realforce
I'd only recommend novatouch if you find a deal or you expect to get a different set of keycaps down the line. novatouch has special stems that allow Cherry MX keycaps, which are FAR more popular.
Here's a guide on how to silence your realforce http://imgur.com/a/cKxuu
>>51856578
>I'd only recommend novatouch if you find a deal
not him, but how does 109€ sound?
>>51856582
I bet you're the same italian anon that already asked and I already told you to get it if you can return it easily.
I'm just recommending him to get a realforce because he wants quieter keys.
>>51856577
I use dictionaries as a screen stand
>>51856578
I might go with a realforce then, seems like a nicer keyboard than the cm overall. I guess there's less ability to rice but the white/grey realforce looks handsome enough I think.
>not being Topre Realforce master race
>>51856567
i love that keycap style but i can't find anywhere that sells it
>>51856486
Topre switches are far more quieter (is this even a word) than any Cherry trash I tested.
Cherry fucking sucks
>>51856608
>I bet you're the same anon
it's a niche hobby after all
I'm just very indecisive when a lot of money is on the line
>>51856628
>more quieter (is this even a word)
quieter is a word.
the er in quieter signifies "more quiet" so you don't put more in front of it.

it kind of looks like granite but I don't think it is
>>51856628
are you bottoming out?
https://youtu.be/lFkl1Vet1eU?t=116
little sound on linears with o rings when bottoming out practically no sound when not bottoming out
also if you rate switches by the sound rather than the feel, you're a weird person
>>51852179
work: lenovo preferred pro (pic related)
home: CM storm rapid-i
both are decent but need improvements
>>51856653
Oh, thanks. I'm not native English speaker so I didn't know.
Neat.
>>51852355
no markings, its like a simple encryption
>>51856656
Topre has by far the best feel of any switch I've tried. Cherrys were all shit and I've tested new Cherrys and used ones.
>>51856661
^^^^^this
more quiet OR quieter
what is your native language?
>>51856678
Spurdo Spärde :-D
>>51856651
Yeah I'm the same. I went with my gut and bought a 70€ blue quickfire, because I didn't want to get the 20€ switch tester then to find out someone else bought the cheap quickfire.
If I don't like it, I'll just try to return it and get the switch tester afterwards
If you know you like topre and you don't mind the sound, the novatouch is good. if you don't know if you like topre it's a gamble because most people prefer cherries (unless there's actually so many people that haven't tried topre)
>>51856673
then say that instead of "CHERRY IS SO MUCH LOUDER CHERRY SWITCHES A SHIT"
Thing with Topre is that say, Realforce, that keyboard costs like 200 pounds which is nearly 280 euros.
who else /comfy/?
>>51856710
cool apple keyboard bro
>>51856728
it's not apple
>>51856694
>unless there's actually so many people that haven't tried topre
that's a given.
topre is rare and expensive.
It's like saying "unless there's actually so many people that haven't driven a lambo"
>>51856694
>(unless there's actually so many people that haven't tried topre)
Topre keyboards cost nearly 300 euros

http://deskthority.net/review-f45/my-take-at-novatouch-t8906.html
well apparently Matt3o himself trashed it and sold his Novatouch after a month.
Guess I'll spend my money on keycaps and maybe a case for mypoker II

also whats up with that escape key?

The escape key is the keycap that came with it, it's the Ducky YOTG. Looks better than the regular escape key imo.

some of your keys are on the wrong way you freak
I use an acer rubber dome, but would look to try a budget mechanical keyboard with cherry MX browns.
Have my eye on the cougar attack 2, it is pretty cheap, trying to find a cheaper keyboard.
>>51856917
The alt keys are easier to press with my thumbs that way.
>>51856936
okay i get that but it looks stupid and clearly you care about aesthetics
>>51856927
>cherry MX browns
more like cherry regrets
just get blues or clears
>>51856888
you must love cleaning or maybe white hides the cum stains really well, i dunno lel
>>51856917
inverted bottom row keys are pretty common for comfort
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000ICZ546?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s01
It's actually a mechanic keyboard, except the switches aren't CHERRY™ MX™, so I guess that means it's gutter trash
Also has a PS/2 connection, which is nice
>>51856957
>not cumming into socks
>>51856948
what's wrong with browns? blues are too clicky and noisy.
Browns seemed just about right for my preference, low activation force with a tactile bump and no clicking sound.
>>51856944
I don't really mind 2 of the lower keys being upside down. I prefer the feel of it, and it doesn't completely ruin the look of the board.
>>51856957
It's held up well to dust. I usually keep my hands clean before using my keyboard.
>>51856983
>with a tactile bump
because it's not that
it's like a grain of sand stuck in your switch and scratches everytime you press.
>>51856991
Fuck, I've never experienced that with browns. What type of knockoff Kailh switches did you get?
>>51856991
god damn I wish i could just fucking try a bunch of keyboards with different cherry switches. Ill see if I can find a local retail store that has them on display. Perhaps harvey norman
>>51857002
Are you an Ausfag? JB HIFI usually has a few mechanical boards on display.
>>51857014
cheers big ears
>>51856845
I like it this colour when lying down in bed.
>>51857002
i know right, the only place i ever found a mechanical keyboard that i could try was selfridges of all places
Want to buy a Ducky Zero because I'm poor. Is it good and durable?
I don't want to expend almost 50% more just for the lights and cable of the Ducky Shine 4. But I don't know if the quality of the Zero is comparable with the Shine.
I use the Poseidon Z with Kahil blues. Picked it up on Amazon for $59.99 this summer. Definitely recommend it.
>>51857002
Get clears if you think browns are too soft. Unlike browns, clears have a distinct bump.
>>51852179
got the same keyboard. Feels comfy
>>51857106
because you're poor? i find ducky keyboards are just as expensive as anything else
>>51856832
there's people that prefer rubber domes over any other switch
>>51857106
yes, ducky zero & quickfires are the two main budget boards
maybe have a look at the Azio MGK if you're in the US & you want a different look or at the lolita spyder if you're in EU and want a different look.
Both use kailhs tho
>>51857222
The Ducky Zero is much cheaper than the Shine and compares to the CM keyboards in price.
>>51857714
yeah that's the thing, i have a CM storm rapid-i that costed me £90 and i see it as a mid tier/name brand keyboard. i expected ducky keyboards to be cheaper as a 100% chinese product but they're around the £110 mark, they look nice and do what i'd want for office use but i see why they cost so much
Should I do it? It has some chink copy of cherry switches but that name
>>51858358
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00WI5ITTY?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_1&smid=A2OBYCPECCAAML
this is a pretty good price
it uses kailhs yeah
Used a Filco Majestouch 2 with blue cherry MX since 2011 but I've just taken delivery of a 1987 IBM Model M (ISO layout).
Shit is so cache, I think I'll be selling the Filco on.
https://www.massdrop.com/buy/unicomp-ultra-classic?referer=2YVXYC&mode=guest_open
who here getting a wannabe model M,
>>51852355
Where'd you get those keycaps?
I'd love some blank ones for my Poker II but just don't know where to look.
>>51856253
looks like shit tbqh senpai
>>51856660
I have the preferred pro as well but with an L-shaped enter key. What do you think are the cons?
>>51856253
2itai4me.
>>51859870
i've also got the ISO model (uk)
well not so much cons but improvements, its quite a large keyboard and i have no idea what's in the hump along the top but it would be nice to have some media controls and a 2 port usb hub built in, more stable keys that don't absorb dirt like a sponge. also why are the enter keys both purple? and the whole keyboard is a very dark grey rather than black.
one minor thing i've noticed compared to the dell keyboards in my office is that the lenovo keyboards don't having drainage holes for those retards who spill coffee onto their keyboard (there's one every 3-6 months or so)
>>51855970
Clean your Keyboard mate
Just a Logitech K120
>>51859208
I ordered them from Banggood.
Shipping took a bit longer than expected, but I got them pretty cheap.
>>51861300
Same , good keyboard.
>>51852179
I had that keyboard once. The drivers were dogshit, it picked up fingerprints like all hell and the key sizes are retarded. Luckily, it literally just stopped working after not even 36 hours. I plugged it in to various computers and it didn't work.
Returned it and got a mechanical keyboard. Never looked back.
Just replaced my K120 with a Logitech G105 the homie gave me after he bought a mechanical keyboard
How do people on /g/ feel about logitech keyboards?
