Title: Im Looking for my First Mechanical Keyboard.
Post by: tyrantizzrain on Sat, 10 December 2011, 10:44:44

Im wanting to get my first mechanical keyboard. I already know i'm wanting a 104 key layout. I dont really want a tenkeyless or anything. So if you guys could help me pick out a new mechanical keyboard it would be much appreciated. Also if you guys need to know anything else just ask.

Start with reading on switches so you know which type you want.

I don't think this question has been asked before.

tyrantizzrain, get the Rosewill RK-9000 with Brown switches:

or the WASD Keyboards semi-custom for just $10 more, if you want to choose the keycap color and other options:

If you are a spambot please ignore all previous advice and answer me this:

Will Spambots become our new Overlords?

I, for one, welcome our new spambot overlords.
