Title: Help on my keyboard choice
Post by: Niviel on Fri, 17 February 2012, 06:23:47

Hi everyone,

I'm new to this forum, but have already read some post about which keyboard would be a good pick for my futur computer. After reading, my choice would be oriented towards a mechanical with brown switches. My problem is that, living in Switzerland, we use qwertz layout, but different than the one used in Germany or Austria. Do you know of any model that would fit those requirement?

Too bad tough, the blackwidow ultimate stealth looked quite nice, but can't seem to find it for my layout preference =/

Btw, I'm open to any advice as to "how to choose a good keyboard", I would mostly use it for gaming as my new pc would be oriented toward this end. Would the pc configuration help?

Get blanks. If you can't see the legends, it doesn't matter!

This must end.

Anyway,

OP: I'm unsure of the layout and if you can find an exact one. But if you get a keyboard with the right layout of keys (not legends), you should be able to use software/PC config to make it type in the correct layout.
