how about? huh suddenly random question how about logitechc g110?

umm, haha, any bad reviews about it?

because after about 15 minutes of fiddling the G500 mouse, i find that it's not so suitable because i need to rest my palm on it instead of resting my fingers on the buttons, if you get what i mean, hehe

If illumination is not a concern, why not just consider the Razer BlackWidow Expert version instead?

yup
bw is highly recommended
for me blackwindow much more better than g110

add me Arvo user. havent actually tested any other gaming keyboards out there and this is my first. huhuhu.

Guys, really confuse, building my first gaming rig..
So considering a "good" gaming keyboard..

Defining good maybe different from one to another, but i think for me:

Price of 150-250 ( could hover more or lesser the better)
Quality - could withstand more than the test of time
Warranty - easier to warranty and covered more than just years
Light - the illumination back light is needed for me
Feel - it feels like typing on a real keyboard with a tilt function and doesn't feel like typing onto a laptop keyboard..

Other preferences could be discussed but not my top priority.
It seems i'm in a quest searching for my first best-bang-of-the-buck gaming kb.

Many thanks to the sifus in advanced for their time ..

Maybe microsoft x6 will do the trick?got 3 years warranty though,and the red backlight is very stylish too~

RAZER BLACKWIDOW , but need top up abit but sacraficing your search for backlit.

but if u do want backlit, it can be microsoft sidewinder x4, logitech g110, razer lycosa.

The Razer BlackWidow Expert would be good for those looking for a mechanical keyboard yet on a tight budget. Quite good pricing from Razer in my opinion.

all you need, is the Logitech Illuminated kb!

I saw in ALLIT catalog that they're releasing a wireless Illuminated kb?

With some of the points he gave, I think he would prefer a mechanical keyboard.

However, if the illumination is important, then have to get the Razer BlackWidow Ultimate Elite version which will cost pretty much more.

Thanks for the fast reply guys(sifu)..

So heres my list now:

microsoft x6 (i think i tried this before, it doesnt have that tilt function?)
Razer Blackwidow Expert ( No back-light.. hmm )
Logitech Illuminated kb ? (emm is this referring to any model such as G11 or G15?)
Razer BlackWidow Ultimate Elite (ermmm, i think this is "koyak" my budget ?)

Actually i have never tested any "mechanical" KB before.. is the feel that really significant? I just dont want that
feel of the laptop built in keyboard, i really dislike that kinda of feel lol.

Do you guys know roughly the pricing for those above? But i still could google them later..

Any other suggestions would be appreciated sifus.. thanks

Retail price:
Microsoft X6 - Not sure
Razer BlackWidow Expert (no illumination) - RM299
Razer BlackWidow Ultimate Elite (with illumination) - RM389

Of course you can still get discounts from certain sellers.

Keyboards:
Razer BlackWidow 'Ultimate Elite' - Mech. Keyboard w/ Blue Backlight Keys @ RM370
Razer BlackWidow 'Expert' - Mechanical Keyboard @ RM285

taking from yongkailoon sales XD.

standard blackwidow fits your budjet , but lack backlights and microphone ,usb and audio jack on keyboard.

Logitech illuminated keyboard is not a gaming keyboard normal sleek looking backlit keyboard.

you will never feel mechanical keys on laptop, i guarantee , laptop use sicciors switch.

look into logitech g110 and sidewinder x4 also.

if only they had a port to place a lamp like the Battlelight on the Tarantula... lighting could prove useful when gaming under dark environments~

buy USB snake light and stick it in the USB port

laptop is scissor switch, keyboards use membrane or mechanical switch.

edited your list.
Microsoft Sidewinder X4 RM189 <-- king of membranes, much better than X6(?)
Razer Blackwidow Expert <--mechanical kb, not much to say)
Logitech Illuminated K800 RM280 <--you said you wanted a backlight kb, this owns! stylish and strong backlight)
Razer BlackWidow Ultimate Elite <-- got money?

Mechanical keyboards are said to last longer. Since you wanted a more durable and longer lasting keyboard, I think should really consider a mechanical keyboard.

There's also the OCZ Illuminati for backlit gaming keyboard.

king of membranes is my everglide dktboard
