Mois what KB that u r using now? I heard u r pro gamer, so keng.

Unfortunately, power-hungry devices don't work very well with keyboard ports. I've read a lot about problems happening when you try to do that.

interesting. do you have facts for that?
i am not a pro gamer but tarantula has lots of problems reported that's why i chose the G15 the first place. lol...
and you dont really need response time for keyboards as it does nothing really. and laptop style slim keyboard is not really for hardcore springy feel keyboard gamers if you know what i mean.

read for fun

razer has announced the new keyboard.
arctosa.

basically the lycosa without backlighting...priced USD30 cheaper than lycosa...so should be somewhere around RM170-180...
when its available...i dunno yet...so keep referring to the razer thread

soo G15 is better than Tarantula?

plz reply

Basically yes. But you have to try to a feel on the keyboard.

Should drink more Starbucks during gaming hours

depends on the user, if u want fast response keyboard then get tarantula. If u want to feel comfortable while gaming and illuminated , get g15 then.

So many ppl recommend G15. Make my heart itchy now.

I'm using g15 v2 lah.

I know. But G15 is quite bulky in terms of size compared to lycosa.

Add me, I just bought Razer Lycosa Keyboard, but the led light not so bright

I have the facts before posting something dude. Cons of tarantula, keys will fade, doesnt work on bios.

Its funny to hear u said that response time for keyboards does nothing. Try steelseries 7g, u will feel it have much faster response than g15.
And who the pro gamer use a g15? normal gamer does. But im not a pro gamer as well. Just personal preference.

Which keyboard rae you use now?

I'm suppose there's a bunch of pro's in mmorpg games is playing using g15?

WoW players

response time isnt that important.
normal keyboard response is good enough.

to me, its the key travel thats more important.

well, i was hoping u share some facts or shed some lights. any source? will be very much appreciated. it is interesting to see what progamers have in their arsenal. don't get me wrong here. i don't know what progamers use. i guess progamers don't need gaming keyboards. because pro gamers existed long before gaming keyboards? ... i think most gaming keyboard buyers are normal gamers. unless there's a gaming device sponsor in the event, so you see they get all their equipments by a single brand or two. something like that.

welp, if it indeed have that faster response time, it is only good for fast moving combo games like UT series and sorts. lol...other than those, most FPS do not gain much extra advantage (i won't say none) compared to having a good mouse.
last time i was reading the tarantula reviews (a lot!) prior to purchase my keyboard, i didnt see anyone really performed keyboard response time comparison. other than mere highlighting the features. maybe there's an updated review or something. mind to share some links? or maybe the faster feeling is due to the shorter key strokes need to to hit the bottom unlike the G15.

erm, i think ur wrong there.. fast response time does have an impact during gaing especially for fps games.. and mois is right, most pro gamers use tarantula keyboard as their keyboard during a tourney except for those steelseries sponsored clan which they used the super expensive 7G keyboard.... (which basically, u r wrong) g15, good for games that require more macro keys (mmorpg, strategy), but for fps, just plain normal..

seems come with a lot of handy features
