Title: keys registering faster?
Post by: Namkung on Mon, 12 December 2011, 12:56:30

So I just got my filco and I noticed that the keys are registering NOTICEABLY faster (compared to my leopold).
What I mean is like if I hold a key down it types it faster (I am not sure if I am making myself clear here lol) or when i press backspace, things get deleted faster .
Just wondering if there is any reason for this o.O
(both were connected via ps2 slot

Filco said they optimized the controller for speed in the Gen2.
