What keyboard does /v/ use? I'm in the market for a mechanical keyboard under $100 to replace this shit $20 Logitech keyboard I'm currently using. Is there anything decent for under $100 that's not Razer?
CM Quickfire XT
Save up your money for something good.
There's /mkg/ on /g/ if you want actual help.

Definitely don't buy fucking Corsair.
>>337920719
Personally using a Filco Majestouch, think it was around $120. Honestly not really worth it, even if you're typing all day. It's sort of like wearing a less tight fitting shirt, it may be noticeably comfier at first, but you completely forget about it after continued use.

Have the keyboard in this pic as well, would spend a bit more on something from Logitech or similar.

I valued typing over video games, so don't use me as an example of what to buy for video games.

I'm actually using that keyboard right now.

mechanical keyboards are a meme
>>337920719
Mechanical keyboards aka the most counterproductive thing you can buy for gaming. Yes, even with red switches which basically feel like membrane keyboards.
People were talking about significantly better longevity & reliability of Cherry MX switches, on paper they aren't not wrong, but in reality those switches are way more fragile than any other Keyboard type. I didn't expect them to be that fragile. I doubt that a modern mechanical switch will ever reach 50mio keystrokes let alone 60mio like Razer claims.
Red switches were created to imitate the rubberdome feel. A Mechanical Keyboard is basically an oxymoron. I mean what's the point of that? Why create something that costs more than 70 - 100 bucks to produce (guess) and sell it for more than +120 bucks to imitate the feeling of something that you can get for 20 - 60 bucks (a decent membrane one)
In short: I fell for the mechanical meme and they are disadvantageous for gaming no matter what switch you use.
>>337920880
What switches? Reds or browns?
>>337923295
I got blues, but I think it comes with reds, browns and greens as well
>>337923202

Get a load of this guy.
>>337923202
What game is that?
>>337923417
They do m8
In fact, some felt worse than my second gen G15, I agree.
Other switches (i.e. brown, blue, black etc) are not made for gaming and only help with writing at best. For gaming you want something as linear as possible with short key travel. (scissor switch/chiclet keyboards)
There are some pseudo religious attitudes when it comes to mechanical keyboards. Most are just not suited for gaming. Deal with it mate.

i been using the best scissor-switch keyboard ever created for 5 years, then got myself a simple 10keyless mxred, after getting used to it for a couple of weeks i like it more now, both in typing and playing gaems

QPAD MK50 was the best option I could find a few years back, solidly built, high key travel, not ridiculously loud with browns, cheaper than comparable options from Razer/Logitech etc.
Cost me about £80, dunno what that is in freedom bucks but I imagine it'd be cheaper because tech always is over there.
>>337924957
Sorry, €80 not £80.

I'm using chinese keyboard i bought for 10 bucks maybe 7 years ago or so.
Seriously who gives a shit about keyboard, they're all smae and there is no difference between them besides gimmicks like LED's and shit.

If you pay more than $5 for a membrane keyboard, you're a retard. Plain and simple.
Got this thing for 60€.
It's good enough.

Kill yourself. You wasted 60€ that could have been used towards a keyboard that's actually good.
Also Logitech sucks dick. They haven't been good since 2004.

Anyone have this keyboard?

what switches? if it doesnt say MX any color - its not worth it
>>337926284
post up a gallery friendo
I used to use this before my cousin spilled soda on it. I thought I could remove the switches and clean it up, but the shit was soldered to the PCB.
It was very basic which I liked and was connected via micro usb to the back of the keyboard making it super easy to unplug and clean.
By some miracle though I managed to get a replacement though. So I'm just using one of those $10 dell keyboards till it gets here.
>>337926171
I wish Corsair would offer a customization service.
I'd love a K70 with
- clears everything on any non mentioned key
- mx speed or reds on arrow keys
- mx red on left shift
- blue with o-ring on spacebar
- blues on numpad
>>337925392
is this bait
>>337920719
I currently have this keyboard with red switches. I like the looks. Got it for 30bucks.
>>337926393
It says blue switches
>>337926020
Regardless of manufacturer, the switches are going to be the same. Feel free to tell me what I could've gained.
CM Storm Quickfire XT. Unparalleled value imo. Very low on bullshit but the font is ugly as fuck but I try not to care. It's sold under some other brand too with a non shit font but I forget what it is. Also it doesn't have dedicated media keys.
I like that it's just a keyboard. You'll need your own wrist rest, it doesn't have USB passthrough, lights or other bullshit that you probably don't use.
>find a good mechanical keyboard
>can't find the Nordic version of it anywhere
>>337926462
I actually don't have that much more. Check her instagram, facebook and flickr for more.
>>337927031
Just get the UK version. It's the same physical layout.
Any cheap (and by cheap I mean dirty cheap), no bullshit, plain and simple, keyboard that I can get an hold of? I want a keyboard that doesnt get my AWSD/SPACE keys jammed after months of usage.
>>337926878
i checked it and they arent mx or any other brand switches, just noname switches that clone mx blue ones. I've never seen such a cheap mek keyboard though, so it might be worth it for that price, but beware, mx blue or their clones are very loud
