your budget range of "cheap"?

try g15. it is good and quite cheap (value for money) with those LCD and functions.

Well..In the sense of anything around RM100-150 if possible. I am not so familiar with these gaming keyboard. Just using the normal Microsoft keyboard only and in the feeling of trying one..LOL..

I have seen plenty of them including the G15 and Tarantulla and all of them are very pricy. Around RM300. My first choice is also the G15 but the price is killing me..LOL..I hated the A4tech one as a start and therefore, looking for other options if possible..

of coursela, the keyboard is really... really damn good (as for now, always keep accidentally hitting the G keys doh.gif)... the media keys (Prev, Next, Stop, Play/Pause) how to control? only Windows Media Player? apart from that... the "click-clack" sound is "softer" than my ex-NEC, but still acceptable, not too soft, not too hard... it's just great...
currently, i attached the MX-518 to keyboard's USB port (testing...) because one of my thumbdrive cannot be detected - don't know it's related to keyboard's USB port or the thumbdrive itself...

Just wondering here right, whats the difference that you feel when switching from normal keyboard to this gaming keyboard here? Is it worthy of a change for the price point that you are paying?

go  4 ms reclusa instead........

Seriously, for me, among the gaming keyboards around, the MS Reclusa does seem to be the weirdest around. It just doesn't look good and some people are having plenty of issues with them. I would go for the Lycosa instead. smile.gif

im using them at 100% puas hati lol

Well, i touched one before at LYP and to be honest, i feel kinda dissapointed with the built quality. Somehow, it seems very "fragile". smile.gif

Thats my personal preference though.

u touch oni
i bought and used lol
the key is good
fragile? u can even hit the keyboard to ur head lol
coz reclusa damn heavy compared to other gaming keyboard lol
*
LOL..No offense there but its just a personal preference for me. What i mean in fragile is not it easily broken. Its actually some kind of "fragile" feeling where the keys and sound they produce does not seem abit on the tough side. Not sure how to explain this though.

Anyway, as said by you, i never used it before. Maybe its not as bad as it seems to me but the design definitely aint something that is preferable by me. smile.gif

i think he means the feel of the keyboard's build qiuality feels cheap. i own 1 and i have to agree...even after so long with it i still think it feels rather cheap.

just because the keyboard is heavy doesnt mean its good build quality.
agree...typing with the reclusa takes getting used to. once used to it its actually alright..though still feel a lil off....

and i hate the fact that the space bar is HARDER then the rest of the keys.

Thanks for explaining what i try to mean here. tongue.gif Having a hard time expressing myself..LOL...

Good keyboard. But still have some flaws. Rubber keys aint too good and lighting aint just bright enough. Other than that, everything is just fine. smile.gif

Lycosa would serves u well..just the backlight will be a problem if u cant type without seeing the keys..

In the dark, its very hard to see the keys even with the backlight on. In the bright, its even harder to see. Thats how bad the light is. smile.gif

Have it like this, if you are viewing the keys at roughly around 45 degree, the key lighting are perfectly nice. Not that bright but viewable nicely. Anything further than that, its hardly noticeable. smile.gif

Luckily I can type without looking at the key, so I can have more choice in the future.

Well, its sometimes a matter of making it look good with illuminated keys tongue.gif

well given all the adv and pros the G15 gives. i can live with the fact that the silver paint fades of OVER TIME that is.....

But given that you are paying so much for a keyboard like Sniper69 and it fades like - in a few months, you will have your head scratched though smile.gif

well it does depend on how much usage and fraction u put on the keys as well rite.........

Well, yea, you got a point there. For me, its just not good enough. I mean, its a gaming keyboard. Of course, there would be extreme gamers out there (like sniper69 tongue.gif ) that will be using the keyboard for long hours for gaming. LOL..If it couldn't stand that, there must be some problem somewhere though. And the price aint that cheap either. So, buyer would be expecting something with better quality.

But except for the fading thingy, the G15 is indeed a good keyboard indeed. Very good. smile.gif
