Hi mech kb fans,

I'm looking to join the club - considering these few:
Ducky Shine 3
Das Keyboard Professional Model S
Logitech G710+
Corsair Vengeance K70

I do 50/50 typing/gaming - so I'm going for MX Brown keys for each. Any advise/personal recommendation based on your experience?

Seems Corsair is only available in UK layout here in Malaysia (distributor's choice) - so that 100% rules it out for me - I'll die before switching away from NA/US layout.

Yeah bro - most sellers on this forum only carry UK layout....I did get 1 guy who said his distributor got NA layout also - which is quite interesting - because I was told Malaysia only got 1 corsair distributor.

Das or ducky would do the job fine.

Thanks for the recommendation.....I think think....seems like will go for Das. I really like to have a backlit keyboard, but Das styling suits me better.

BTW - nice mods on your KB

Anybody here got use KVM with mechanical keyboards? Any issues? Any KVM to recommend?

My choice of KVM died very fast coz I wanna get a Das K/B.....most KVMs I see is USB1.1 compatible - Das (or at least the integrated hub - needs USB2).

Hi guys,

I must be reading too much GH dy.....now my desire to get das keyboard is nearly gone....

Before it completely die though - anybody here can share review of Das Model S Professional - MX Brown (should be sold in 2013 - and has media keys).

What I really care about is reports about poor quality stabs. I hit the spacebar a lot....probably the most of any key...so that should matter...

my friend's das keyboard died shortly after the warranty period is over lol!

wat's the good points for das keyboard is that it has USB ports, makes it convenient.
but that's about it, the rest is pretty standard.

bad points, fingerprint magnet.
not dat popular here.

Thanks bro....that means for now I will go for one of the CM Storms (I'll remember to avoid the Pros/Ultimates). Start low first....then maybe "graduate" to Ducky and Filco
