Is there a point to buying memeboards unless you are a gamurr?
The silent bits on the strafe seem ok but if there are cheaper alternatives I'm down
Dont buy what you dont like nigger.

If you're epileptic you can give yourself a seizure
If you absolutely must get a mechanical, pick up something for typists. Half the companies that put out the gamer mechanical keyboards use their own shitty switch brands these days.
Anything with excessive use of backlighting or other useless features is invariably overpriced trash. Your pick is a great example.

Shouldn't you telling store employees how to sell your product?
I had a great keyboard with brown cherry and loved it.
Then dropped beer on it.
Only buy buckling springs.
>>343606102
Typing on a mechanical is magical.
I never even considered one until they bought mechanicals at the place I work at. After a couple months of that I hated typing at home on my old Logitech G11.

Who? Logitech are the only major, mass producing keyboard producers that is using proprietary over Cherry MX.
>>343606976
>Your pick is a great example.
His pick is an excellent keyboard, turn the lighting off if you're an autistic retard.
>>343608896
I thought Razer was doing it too.
Highlighted WASD is always disgusting, especially because ESDF is objectively superior.
>>343606976
>shitty switch brands
the only company that i'm aware that doesn't use Cherry is razor. then again I don't bother looking at cheap chinese keyboards either.
what i'm saying is, nah, almost everyone uses Cherry switches.
People shit on Razer constantly on /v/, but this was the best $50 I ever spent.
Thoughts on the G810/Romer G?
I despised the thing at first but I cant go back to Cherry now.

>lower-case r
why
>>343606102
my brother, sister-in-law, and good friend all have this keyboard. its seems nice, but i don't think i could be that shameless...
>>343608896
I think it changed recently since some patent owned by cherry expired.
>>343606102
Mechanical keyboards are more comfortable to type on for longer amounts of time. Cheap membrane boards work fine but don't have the same tactile feedback.
That being said, the RGB color trend in boards is the dumbest shit

Mechanical Keyboard with dedicated Media Keys and Volume. Is this still the best one?
>>343609534
I like the look of it, but I really don't care about RBG lighting. A dull white light setting is the most I'd ever use.
>>343609494
>no numpad
lol
Best keyboard reporting in.
I can't live without that scroll wheel anymore.
>>343609130
Razer only puts out gamer shit.
>>343609130
Razer is using Kailhs, which are just cheaper MXs, but Razer is charging MX prices so everyone hates them on principle
>>343610297
>using the cuckpad
what's the best? Das, Ducky, Noppoo?
>>343610297
80% is godly though, for a gaming setup the tenkeys are useless and the closer position of the wrists means your mouse hand doesn't get tired or sore.
>>343610269
The gskill 770 coming out this year looks alright if you want a version with rgb.
Which do you prefer? Brown or red?
>>343610585
>cucking yourself out of 17 extra buttons
yes hello best keyboard here
>>343610741
I use Blues
Anybody know anything about the KEL ES-87? Been looking into mechanical keyboards for a little bit and they're highly recommended.
Also, is there a way to try out different switch types before settling on one? I don't know of any stores with display models.
>>343610297
i use an actual cherry brand kb and sometimes I wish I had a tenkeyless board for if I'm like typing a paper or something for more ergonomic kb and mouse placement
that way i could have the kb centered directly in front of me and the mouse closer in, but for gaming I keep them far apart so it doesn't matter
>>343610767
why the fuck is it so expensive
>>343610767
is there a black version?
>>343610741
Tactile>linear

>17 redundant buttons that cause you to hold your arms at an unnatural width
Yeah no thank you
>>343608953
My 710+ uses MX browns. Not sure about their other boards.
But yeah, mechanical keyboards are worth it imo. Feels like sex with virgin lolis.
>>343610741
i have red but i kind of wish i had brown
>>343610860
Not him but super compact keyboards have less demand, so they charge higher prices to make up for less sales.
>>343610861
yes
anyone have experience with Noppoo? Choc mini is discounted on amazon
>>343610741
brown is tip-top tier
>>343610860
its like 250 now. i bought it when it was 300. well worth it in my opinion.
>>343610861
yes there is
>>343611004
oh the price is at around 200 now
>>343610920
How small are your shoulders?
>>343610741
Browns best.
>that clackety-clacking
>>343610741
I hadBlacksin my old keyboard.
Went Browns with this one, and I love em. That tactile feedback is just great, and they just feel so good to type with.
I got a ducky shine 5, the backlighting is pretty nice. Went with blue switches and i love them.
>>343606102
If you're on your computer for 4+ hours a day, I'd say so. They genuinely make typing feel much more enjoyable (if you get one with tactile feedback, that is.) I got one because I was getting sick for certain key combos not registering due to rollover.
Pic related, it's mine. Obnoxious as fuck, but I love yellow.
>clean my brown cherry
>keys never feel the same
Almost want to buy another
Fucking beer.
>>343608836
what brand did your work get?
>>343611712
youre right, its outrageously ugly.
i like the feeling of linear switches a lot
>>343611712
christ thats terrible
hang yourself
THE QUICK BROWN FOX JUMPED OVER THE LAZY DOG
I bought mechanical because i like the way blue switches sound.
*CLACK CLACK CLACK CLACK*
If that doesn't get your dick hard you don't deserve to play on PC.
>>343613193
I'm thinking about getting the K95, and it has brown switches, what's the difference?
>>343613584
hybrid between the red and blue switch. Good for typing. Okay for gaming.
>>343612078

Xanthophobes plz go
>>343606102
mechanical keyboards are a meme
why would anyone want a keyboard that makes a louder noise everytime you press a button
CLACK CLACK CLACK
annoying as fuck
rather have a normal keyboard
>>343615115
Well they were the norm at one point
