Tryin' to cop me a new keyboard - Colonel Z.e.r.o. - 05-23-2011

As the title says.

Upgrading from this.

I'm heavily considering this one. due to price and design.

I'm also looking into this one though the price isn't as welcoming.

My question to you is is there any better choices I could make for this? I'd prefer not to exceed 150 for a combo set or 200 for separate ones.

They don't have to be combos or logitech.

EDIT:I'm also very interested in gaming keyboards at the moment, any recommendations would be appreciated.

Gaming keyboard? Then I'd definitely go with Razer, had much good experiences with their keyboards.

Razer BlackWidow

I kinda prefer this second one, BlackWidow, just because it's mechanical.

Buy the 6Gv2 if you want a keyboard that'll last you pretty much forever.
It's not per definition a gaming keyboard - it doesn't have fancy lights, it doesn't have macro keys, and it doesn't show you the time or your CPU
usage, but, damn, it's one of the best keyboards I've used in a while. I don't think I'll be changing keyboard the next 5-10 years.

EDIT: The BlackWidow or any other mechanical keyboard would be recommended too.

if you can do 10-finger writing - i can deeply recommend the kinesis keyboard ergonomic

[Image: contour.jpg]

it is sturdy and enables you to easily increase your letters/minute ratio. - to use it for gaming, it doesn t really offer too many extra functions and the keys are not arranged perfeclty ( or rather, you have to get used to it ) - mostly cause they are not meant to be used in the default "WASD" pattern ( so you need games that allow custom key bindings ) [not in that pattern means that the keys are not arranged diagonally like a normal keyboard - but fully vertically]

another problem is that it does of course cost you more ( expect ~ 150 '‚¬ ) - but its really durable and lasts for years easily ( unless you spill coffee or other crap into it )

[color=#FFFFFF]Ok this might sound retarded but as far as gaming is concerned I just adore my laptop keyboard. It's PC style (with the num pad and standart arrow keys) and the buttons are separate but it's somewhat more compact so I can press almost any key with my thumb

This what I am using, it's wonderful.

I love being able to choose any color I want. And I seem to use the G keys a lot for basic Windows uses, suprisingly.

I bought it for WoW, and it has been working great. It's really simple to type, no need to press hard, it simply flows.

Although, the spacebar is a little small, but that's my only beef with it.
