well, my lycosa's backspace key is broken (have to highlight a mistake instead of backspacing it) , snapped spacebar (therefore dosent sit in place) and a missing f11 key.
which means, i need a new keyboard.
vote for whats best, or say down here what i should get if its not in the poll
i am looking for a mechanical keyboard, but its still fine if i get a non-mechanical. if you could recommend me to a non-razer mechanical keyboard, please do.
thanks, mike

out of those? the 6Gv2 definetly

(L) my trusty g15

for mechanical, could go for one of these if you find one.




sensuki and myself use them and they are bosssssssssssssssssssssssssss

in b4 Mayo

get that or the Steelseries 7G or a Filco if you are willing to spend the money

ThermalTake Meka G1 ?

I prefer the feeling and clickyness of the Black Widow over the 7G, but it's all up to you. Not every second person has a mechanical keyboard, but definitely try a few out then research what switches (which dictate how the keys feel) are in them, and what you like.

I'd never buy a dome keyboard again, and no one I know regrets buying their mechanical keyboard.

Lol? You're probably the only person I know who prefers the Blackwidow; it's quite bad apparently.

go for a G19. by far 1 of the best keyboards i have uses in my life time

Zowie Celeritas.


I've got the low profile model, it's treated as a treasure and is packed away.

I haven't heard that, and I haven't used one for long periods of time, so I probably haven't seen the longer-term issues.

never used mechanical to any decent extent, no_doubt

Once you've gone mechanical there's no going back.

Blackwidow feels terrible in comparison the 6gv2/7g, typical razer build quality trash. Not sure on the Zowie Celeritas but i'm sure it's better than the Blackwidow.

The most praised gaming mechanical keyboards are the 6g/7g. Otherwise you buy Filco

dobbie i bought some new shoes they are brown suede with a heel

i feel like a fkn ****** wearing them but i get in everywhere now idk??

finally dressing to reflect your personality
