well, the blackwidow costs rm299 atm, but otherwise, the steelseries i think should be rm4XX?...

i heard that if you really want a good keyboard, the blackwidow isn't one, and many said that razer has good mouse, but not keyboards...true? lol

well, technically, what i believe is that those "pro" gamers already have a liking towards their own equipment and it has a better feel to it i guess, so using other eq is just...weird to them i guess?

oo, thanks evo...was thinking of getting a SS keyboard...was wondering between the 7G or the 6gv2...done some homework and many said that it's pretty much the same, except that the 6g doesn't have wrist wrest and some earphone usb port...thus, makes it cheaper

cool, will try to get it some time in the future, haha

i've checked out one persons opinion between the 7g and your filco brown, haha:

Steelseries 7G
Key feel: Stiff and Linear
Tactile feel: None
Noise: Very Little
Rollover: Full NKRO
Key Delay: Untested
Key travel: 2mm to actuation, 4mm to bottom
Typing: 4/10
As you've probably figured out by now, Cherry Black switches are best as pure gaming switches because of their stiffness. And this board gets a lower score than other boards because of it's layout. The Enter key is larger than normal, and the Backspace and Left Shift keys are shrunk. If you are comfortable with keyboards with that sort of layout then just ignore this. But if you aren't, then be ready to reach further away with your pinky to fix your typos.
Gaming: 10/10
Just like several other boards here, this one is perfect for gaming. The Black Cherries help against accidental keypresses, it has full NKRO, and a PS/2 connection for near-instant response. It's added benefit is that because of it's smaller Left Shift key and addition of another key between it and 'Z', you get one more key that you can reach easily while gaming.

Filco
Switch Type: Cherry MX Blue, Brown, or Black
Key feel: Light (Blues), Very Light (Brows), Stiff and Springy (Blacks)
Tactile feel: Crisp (Blues), Rounded (Browns), No tactile feedback (Blacks)
Noise: Light click (Blues), Silent unless bottoming out (Browns + Blacks)
Rollover: Full NKRO on PS/2, 6-key + 4-modifiers on USB
Key Delay: 3ms on PS/2
Key travel: 2mm to actuation, 4mm to bottom
Typing: 10/10 (Blues), 8/10 (Browns), 5/10 (Blacks)
As long as you pick the right switch to suit you you will not be disappointed with this board. It is excellent in every way.
Gaming: 9/10 (Blues), 8/10 (Browns), 10/10 (Blacks)
The reason the Cherry Blacks are better for gaming is because they are a) stiffer than the others, so that you don't press keys accidentally, and b) have no tactile bump, which makes it easier to rapidly press a key over and over (like for dodging in Unreal Tournament). But besides the switch type, this keyboard is perfectly equipped for gaming with a native PS/2 controller and full NKRO. And you can also switch out the WASD keys for purple ones!
