    Re: What Keyboard Should I Get?

    I'll make this a bit easier for you - do you want a 'gaming' keyboard or not? Macro keys? Lights? Media buttons? WSAD highlights?
    This hot girl came over to myspace last night, she twittered my yahoo till I
    googled all over her facebook. Ask Jeeves...

    System 1: Intel i5-2500k OC STABLE @5.05ghz with a ThermaTake Frio (air power!), 8Gb 1600 (9-9-9-24) R3 Patriot G2 RAM, nVidia GTX980TI ;
    System 2: HP N40L Microserver;
    System 3: MSI 'Ghost Pro' laptop - 16Gb DDR4 RAM, nVidia 970M, i7-6700, 256GB PCIe SSD + 1TB HDD

    Logitech G11 from Staples (in store) as they are only £24.78 and you can't beat that price!

    Out of the two in the first post - The Razer, nice piece of kit.

    I have a G15 myself, excellent key actions, I'm pleased with it.

    Only one prob - the macros won't work with it as it's on a KVM.

    I like the look of that Wolf Gaming keyboard - any good?

    And do you have both keyboards connected at the same time?

    My G15 is plugged into the rear of the computer, hopefully I could switch the Wolf keyboard in and out of a front usb port.

    Re: What Keyboard Should I Get?

    My brother actually went out and bought a Razer Lycosa today. Got to admit I was really quite impressed by it. I like the fact that only the keys are back lit, not the entire keyboard so you don't get any light bleeding out between the keys: a classy look.

    Not so sure that I like the pressing action on the keys but everyone prefers their own thing. Best piece of advice is to see if you can't find a shop that sells them and have a quick type on them for yourself.
