Anyone used latest Microsoft Arc keyboard? How is it for gaming? Anti-ghosting? Is there a wired one?

Also, if possible a few words for Logitech K300 wired.

don't buy the K300 if you're serious about gaming.
K300 is designed to minimize space. The keys are also shallow (think laptop keypad). The arrow keys and Insert/Home/End/Delete/PgUp/PgDown have all been relocated so that the keyboard is smaller.

Look at the K300 pic and you'll see what I mean.

But it's very nice if you want a slim compact keyboard that's really tiny.
It also looks really nice cos it's shiny and the orange background under the keys look pretty neat. The additional shortcut functions are quite cool too.

But like I said, not a gaming keyboard.

Oh~ Anyway I has a E-Blue Mongoose keyboard, laptop styled keys, serve me wells these years, just need to find something to replace it hmm.gif
Any other keyboard that's flat keys and gaming grade? Logitech G series keys is a bit high to my taste. whistling.gif

The different is person to person, I feel comfortable even using a cheap mouse pad, a clothe one I guess. No budget to get those RM100+ mouse pad sweat.gif

If you move your mouse without mouse pad the mouse rubber underneath would worn out fast and have lots of scratches, become not smooth after some great time of use. I would say get clothe one instead of cheap rubber/plastic for better non-sticking smooth tracking.

Saw the chinese review of the keyboard, one word, "sux" LOL... no offence if you do read them.
What can I say, it's what you pay for.

I gonna summarize the cons here for someone who can't read.
- G keys are way too near the Ctrl, Shift, Caps Lock, Tab keys.
- USB hub feels like v1.1 only, located at the top of the keyboard, not side-way.
- Keys feels unbalanced, much worst than logitech precision 200??
- Keys also feel too near to each other (too compact).
- Paints falling off problem within a week. (probably for some ppl)
- Ghosting issue, yes, this is BIG issue for FPS and O2Jam gamer.
- Pricey (LOL?!)

The Pros:
- Backlight.
- Lots of keys, multimedia, G-keys, M-keys... lots.
- All keys programmable.
- Good multimedia controls.

No prob. That's what happens if you sleep at 12am, get a nightmare, and wake up at 3am.

Was googling for info from 3-5am. biggrin.gif
How can it be too near, when it's 95% like the G15?
Also same like G15, on top of the keyboard.
Too near? Compact? It's roughly the size of the G15/G19.
Yeah, I am aware of this problem. Happens around after 2-3 months of usage.

Well, beats me, those are users' reviews at the site, I just summarize them all.
But overall their build quality really can't beat logitech and other much popular brand.
