Title: Can you name that board?
Post by: digitalleftovers on Fri, 04 March 2011, 14:10:04

Lower right corner.  This is the only pic I can find that shows it.  It has an extra row of keys of the F row like a POS, and it looks like it has audio ports on the side.  Any Ideas? And yes, I realize that there are three people touching that topre together... Hmmm...

Gah, I think I've seen that board on here before.

I want to say it had Cherries?

I have seen a board with a similar profile ( bump starting on the left side) and I think it was a gigabyte board, but I'm not sure if that is what that is....

It's that Gigabyte alright. Not sure if those are still in production.

its an interesting design.  Too early to market, or just not enough press?

"Worldwide 1st Mechanical Gaming Keyboard"

Is that true?

EDIT: I thought the Raptor K1 was older...

Rightfully so, the K1 came out ca. 2005. The Gigabyte was announced when I was already on here, maybe 2009 or so.
