i prefer braided..really much more durable
not really hard to clean ar..i use wet cloth to clean it i think still ok maybe it is not as flexible as pvc once bended will keep bend but this characteristic make it hard to be bend also |

QUOTE(mADmAN @ Oct 14 2010, 06:40 PM) SIGH...y do manufacturers like to do this shit? unless you get a flexible PVC tubing to put the wires inside there.it may look nice...but dust gets stuck to it...and cleaning out a PVC cable is a whole lot easier rather than braided cable....which is almost impossible to get the damn dust out.  |

braid cable involves something like dry cleaning, you can't use a wet cloth to wipe it just like wiping pvc cable.

QUOTE(Moogle Stiltzkin @ Oct 18 2010, 02:07 PM) Ducky MO is closing tomorrow :} got blank keyset for cherry mx?Choices are black, blue and brown switches. 165 SGD + 22.2 SGD for shipping to Malaysia + 6.8 SGD for paypall transaction fee = Total 194 SGD 194.00 SGD = 460.005 MYR  Ducky 9008 black (Cherry mx brown, blue or black) + free full set of key caps + wasd white keys with black lettering + key puller @ MYR 460 Cherry G80-3494 Lycus-2 black (Cherry mx red) @ MYR 556.855 Logitech G19 Keyboard for Gaming (rubber dome) @ MYR 539 STEELSERIES-7G (Cherry mx black) @ MYR RM539 Razer BlackWidow Ultimate (Cherry mx blue ) @ MYR 399 So basically i'm paying less, for a better mechanical keyboard. Rubber domes sucks (unless it's a Topre which is a hybrid) The price for the Ducky could have been reduced further if it was a Malaysian MO. However since the Singaporean bulk was pretty much already organized, i just tagged along with them  |

I'm talking about something similar to this laa. Cable tidy  the flexible PVC tubing. I've seen some people using this too.  This post has been edited by TechnoG: Oct 19 2010, 07:54 AM |

Yea, hard choice, but I still think the 7g is just average for typing. I still prefer my laptop keyboard at typing.Gaming 7g is great, but playing starcraft 2 I hardly notice the difference. Maybe thats just cause of my low apm. However playing platformers or spaceshooters with the 7g is just awesome. |

if say is just for 1 or 2 wire i think the cable tie is more than enough
but for plenty of wires i think the pvc tubing is better..cover all wires into it look tidier |
