i meant the keycaps for the bottom function row of both razer and corsair are non-standard. means the sizes of spacebar/alt/option are different from normal standard keyboard layout. which means when you want to find new novelty/colourful keycaps to replace the stock keycaps, you're gonna have a hard time (probably paying more for it)

on a side note, imo razer boards not really good in terms of durability... many encountered dead leds/switches issues (ahem 80 million keystrokes) just google about it and you see many threads opened up in various forums.

with a budget of 700+ (for razer blackwidow chroma v2/corsair k70 speed) you are actually open to many other better options like ducky/cm storm.. probably even at a cheaper price for their rgb counterpart.

if you want your browns/reds to be more silent, you can consider putting o-rings dampeners onto your switches

thx bro...
i am not quite liking d razer product also...
as i tested 2 of their mouse...
both have double click issue about 1.5 years...
thx for pointing that out...
how bout durability of corsair?

btw...
i am using my pc in my bedroom,so will prefer more silent switch...
dun mind not using cherry if other switches are good enuf...
and i dun think i will replace any keycaps,prefer my keyboard to look ori...
plus some rgb keyboard can bind different colour for certain key also...

btw i look into d cm mech keyboard as u stated...
d price is like about 75% to 80% to corsair one...
den i think i will jz go for corsair...

see if u got ani other cheaper suggestion?
like fuhlen,tesoro or other brand...
coz survey too much recently...

My Blackwidow ultimate i think i bought in 2012...
Use until now also no issue. Not a single LED burn also.

I prefer standard keycap for typing. The keycap on the razer feels abit...small...dunu why (or maybe the spacing of the key itself).
My fingers are quite large so i always miss type stuff. Gets quite annoying. You might find this to be an issue if you are looking at Corsair/Razer.

Thx bro,used d blackwidow TE about a month...
And yes,i notice d key to be a bit smaller,so typing is a bit not as smooth as expected...
