haha I did take your advice though I did a lot more reading on the "gaming" brands and reviews showed no problems so far, and the design and features attracted me. My gf likes things which look diff haha so she said to get either those 2 since its a present from her I can't really complain I showed her some of the others but she'd like these 2 more and i'm happy enough that'd she shell out that much for me so I don't really want to seem like i dont care what she likes !!

I like these 2 boards as much as the others I saw.

withing that budget you can get rosewill mech keyboard or cm storm quick fire...

Added on October 19, 2012, 4:20 pmI suggest test it first, i was also in dilemma of these switches, until I went to heavy-arm shop and test it myself... Personally I felt the brown is much better in terms of feeling and typing as there is a slight feedback so that you can feel the key is being recognised...

At the end I choosen Ducky Shine 2 Mx Brown from heavy-arm...

Razer black widow stealth ultimate isn't finger print magnet? or they changed to mat?

from what I read stealth is now matte so no more finger print magnet. I will be going to heavy arm also soon to check it out so like you said la won't exactly will come out from there with either one of those boards I will survey first hand but just up to now from reviews and forum reading those 2 stand out thats all xD

for me, when i first migrate to mechanical keyboards, more specifically the cherry mx blue from rubberdome, the typing sensation felt great, it feels like you are not controlling your fingers, it just types.... and it definitely will improve your WPM later if not now. I also liked cherry reds, they felt very light and somehow easier to type faster XD

about gaming, im not really into gaming that much, so not really sure how they fare compared to ruberdomes

i wish i can have a change to try on topre XD

aint we all

You might not want to ignore CM Storm Trigger. It is Costar made.

If you still insist of choosing Corsair or Razer, well good luck. You'll need them.

Both blue and red switches feel great for gaming. Tapping (double/triple/quadruple/spam) problem, none.

If I'm dying need of a backlit keyboard, I'll wait for Shine2 or get the KBT Race.

To me, there's no point getting K90 or Blackwidow. because K90 isn't 100% mechanical, and BW for razer's lottery style quality.

Most of the reviews from those tech sites tends to bias.. probably the company is sending the best unit, or the reviewer actually receive something in return, you know la.. Worst is the reviewer himself isn't a mechanical keyboard user / first time user...

tell them to send one to us, see how it will go

@mikelanding - How much are we talking about, including shipping to Malaysia?

Guys I already placed order for the items you'all ordered,
now waiting for agent to calculate the price of items and postage,
after that, I will let you all know how much to pay,
and after you all paid I will pay the agent and the agent will pay the seller.

LOL... this can be a conspiracy also. What if Razer send us the "GOOD" quality one for review, and then the rest are using the "normal" quality? There is no definite answer to their quality unless someone go to their factory and then randomly picked one of the keyboards from there for review, else it would be as close to meaningless

regardless send good or not, we bash like madafakaaaaas

nahh all 'gaming' mecha juz strong at the brand names only..Steelseries the only one I can trust for gaming mecha even tho they hv freakin big enter...

hmmm i'll consider the ducky shine 2...im going to heavyarm next month so hopefully I have chance to try diff type of keyboards xD

The best choice

well, at heavyarm, the boss is kind and friendly enough to let you try all the types of switches, last time, i went there to buy razer mousepads, then i asked him to let me try some mechanical keyboards, and without any hesitation, he opened up some duckies for me to try, so in the end i managed to try out all the four switches even though i never bough any of them that day.

Pretty good service i would say, at least better than some sellers who are very reluctant to allow you to touch or open up products if you didnt express your intention to buy them

YOTD COMING SOON!

I wonder if the Trigger can change from red to blue LED xD

DIY yourself then. It will void the warranty though.

Added on October 20, 2012, 5:37 amAlso it should be pretty much confirmed that Logitech is using same OEM as Corsair for their mech kb. There are too much similarities between the two.
Corsair's keycaps


Logitech's
