Wow, the difference in equipment

MasterCraft · Oct 24, 2014

I bought some of the new corsair stuff. Corsair vengeance K95 mechanical KB and a Corsair Vengeance M65 performance mouse (standard issue OD green of course :salute:

)

These things are incredible. the quality of construction, the comfort of the keys and fitting. It's night and day.

It's such a huge difference from my steelseries mechanical and logitech mx5 I had to say something. :drool:

Same difference in quality for me from my cheap stuff of the past to my Logitech G710+ mechanical keyboard and G700 mouse.

I'm happy with my $8 keybo.

You are for now, but once you experience a high quality keyboard, especially a nice mechanical one, there's no turning back. I have brought in nicer keyboards and mice to the office.

QFT, I wanted to try a Mechanical keyboard just to see what the fuss was about. Bought a cherry brown KB and I will never buy a membrane again. When I do have to use one it just feels so budget, the precision and feel of the keystrokes on a Mechanical is awesome. Enjoy it MasterC!

I've used a DasKeyboard Ultimate. Meh... not worth the money for me. My keyboard keyboards. When I get my X99 system I'll get a mechanical keybo just because it would be very odd to run an $8 keybo with a nearly $4000 PC.

Same here. I bought a Ducky Shine 3 Cherry Brown and, Man-O-Man!, am I lovin' it. The only downside is my wife, who thought I was crazy for buying it, insists on using it so I'll have to get one for her.

I'll never go back to the old style.

My girlfriend used my G710+ and it was her first time using a mech.
I thought she was going to try to take it back home with her.

lol.

I've used mechanicals forever, most recently the razer blackwidow ultimate. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008U5ZNIG/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Corsair has me sold, It's night and day even to that. Anyone who has never tried one, I encourage you to do so.

I've been using a mechanical keyboard for about two years now, you can say I'm a mechanical keyboard convert almost 30 times over...

Wow lots of mx browns here eh? What, you people don't like the clicking? I think the click of my mx blues is my favorite part!

MasterCraft · Oct 27, 2014

Reds for me.

So, my question is, do all mech keyboards make the clicky noise? That's what has been keeping me away forever. I'm due for an update anyhow, but do not want the clicky.

Janus67 · Oct 27, 2014

Not when you have other people around you

No, of the main 4 (red/black/brown/blue) only the blues make a clicky noise. Past that, if you bottom out the keys on the other keyboards they may make a bit of noise, but not like blues.

Browns with silencers here. Dog gets more sleep this way.

bamato · Oct 27, 2014

The G710+ has rubber o-rings on it's browns to keep the keystrokes more quiet. Love mine.
