QUOTE(Moogle Stiltzkin @ Oct 23 2010, 03:12 PM) Wow are you serious ??? I didn't realize a Malaysian already had one, congratz man hmmm...I must ask you, how does the red cherrys feel like ? Is it too light for you or just nice ??? Especially for gaming. The Ducky i am getting uses browns which is tactile non clicky. It's slightly harder than red, also has tactile bump. The red cherry is totaly linear non clicky, with very little resistance. Some interesting facts you might want to know about your Cherry G80-3494 Lycus-2 black keyboard 1. has POM key caps. POM is expensive and high quality plastic. No shiny effect 2. laser etched. Imho i like the Cherry key cap fonts. Of course the older Cherry keyboards with double shots are better, but laser etch should suffice, 3. Cherry uses it's own stabilizers with rubber. So it's much easier to remove shift, caps, enter and spacebar keys, compared to Costar keyboards that have a metal bar gripping the keys underneath which make it tricky to remove/install keycaps. 4. The Cherry switches on the Cherry keyboard are pcb mounted. Although it is less sturdy (heavy/durable) you can easily remove the switches without having to desolder. Particularly useful if you feel the need to replace the switches in the future. And although it's pcb mounted, some users say it's sturdy enough, so it's not as if it will break easily on accidental drops. for the 1st time I type in this red switch, it's really very light. Maybe because i've being using scissor switch keyboard for a very long time. It's still very hard to catch the actuation point and i find myself bottoming up most of the time. For gaming, double tapping is superb, i can tap faster than before for the keycaps.... i don't know what material it's using, and no, it doesn't shine. The letters, i think it's laser etched. I can feel the engraving on Overall, i found this keyboard to be awesome. I juz love the sound of every key pressed. Feels so solid |

If your on a budget, then i don't recommend the leather wrist pad since it cost a bit
It's nice to have, but for me i rather not pay the asking price for it QUOTE(THEswordmaster @ Oct 23 2010, 03:40 PM) hmmm... Awesome review for the 1st time I type in this red switch, it's really very light. Maybe because i've being using scissor switch keyboard for a very long time. It's still very hard to catch the actuation point and i find myself bottoming up most of the time. For gaming, double tapping is superb, i can tap faster than before for the keycaps.... i don't know what material it's using, and no, it doesn't shine. The letters, i think it's laser etched. I can feel the engraving on Overall, i found this keyboard to be awesome. I juz love the sound of every key pressed. Feels so solid Maybe when your free you can take some nudity shots ( of the keyboard of course) for us The casing is using ABS, and the key caps are using POM. The backplate is PCB mounted, not metalic like the Filco and Ducky (aluminium). By the way if people are wondering why i listed Topre keyboard, it is because although it's not fully mechanical, meaning it's a hybrid as it uses mechanical/rubber dome/capacitive parts; many people seem to think this keyboard is close to godly for a keyboard (for typist anyway). Also despite having some rubber dome elements in it, it's very durable just like a mechanical. Sorta expensive however The price range for Ducky, Filco and Das is more to my budget This post has been edited by Moogle Stiltzkin: Oct 23 2010, 03:56 PM |

Oops after reading more about your conditions for a mechanical keyboard, I have to withdraw myself!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsGeEDQrlzo is that a mechanical ?? Well as long as it can type "a,s,d,f,g,h,j,k" simultaneously i am sure o2jam players would find that sufficient :} |

QUOTE(wKkaY @ Oct 23 2010, 06:10 PM) Doesn't necessarily need NKRO. Heck even the black widow is max 6kro. just that it needs to have mechanical switches, whether it be alps, topre, cherry, buckling spring or some unknown. R urs mechanical |

The TVS is actually not bad for people under a budget and want to squeeze the best out of every last drop of their money.
The looks is quite a turn off to me though. |

QUOTE(jasmineivan @ Oct 23 2010, 07:44 PM) I know which is friggin ridiculous. This is why i started this thread so people don't get dazzled by the bling/marketing speak, and not realize that actually as a typing/gamers keyboard it isn't any better than mechanical yet they are expected to pay more or less the same price as one !Yes mechanical keyboards also have bling, e.g. Deck Legend. You want macros ? Razer Black Widow Ultimate has them. It's a good thing Razer has hopped onto the mechanical bandwagon, although they have much to do (such as make nkro possible for a start). Hopefully Logitech follows as well. This post has been edited by Moogle Stiltzkin: Oct 23 2010, 08:24 PM |

Though I doubt they can produce really high quality mech keyboards simply because they focus so much on gaming they don't care the core of mech keyboards - typing feel and quality.
I mean... Just look at BW |

Black widow review
http://www.mrinterface.com/reviews/Keyboar...er%20Blackwidow Steelseries 7G review http://www.mrinterface.com/reviews/Keyboar...teelseries%207G Cherry g80-3494 review http://www.mrinterface.com/reviews/Keyboar...erry%20g80-3494 Filco Majestouch Cherry Brown review http://www.mrinterface.com/reviews/Keyboar...0Cherry%20Brown Topre Realforce 103 U UW review http://www.mrinterface.com/reviews/Keyboar...%20103%20U%20UW Well if you look at the reviews, the BW is good try, but it certainly is not the same as a Filco if you ignore the macro and led bling. And it's certainly not a Topre which is considered one of the best keyboards for typist. |

deck legend is nice..but just before blackwindow released
now blackwindow is the top mech kb with bling and macro i think but for best typing experience i think majestouch is best compare to 7g and blackwindow |
