It's useful, in my opinion to demonstrate that the typical overclock.net user rocks the logitech and saitek keyboards quite often. :P

Anyone notice how you can get ghosting over USB on NKRO boards? Try this:

(Left) Control, alt, and shift. Try some 4-6 key combos with Z, X, A, S, Q, W etc. You will notice some strange key behavior -- particularly ghosting. And I mean the correct use of the term. Keys you did not press will be pressed. Of course, the same keyboard using PS/2 behaves normally, with absolutely no ghosting.

I think I read about this issue a while ago, but I haven't actually been able to fully test the issue myself until recently.

On my Realforce 87U I only appear to get it on the 6th key pressed down.  For example, pressing CTRL-zasxd is fine.  As soon as I press something else I get that letter and 1 to 3 ghosted letters. CTRL-zasxdc gives me CTRL-zasxdcw.

At that point I kinda lost interest.  I only have 5 fingers on my left hand you see......

Ouch.  Does this happen with cherry blue filco with NKRO over USB?

Ghosting on the topre.  While this has no relevance in real world usage, it sucks to see this exists.

Yeah. That's the board I used when I tried it. Judging by the fact that this doesn't happen over PS/2 and that I don't think anyone's come forward with a USB rollover board that doesn't have this issue, I'm thinking it's a USB issue.

But as Ripster said, this really is not that big of an issue. I don't think I've ever needed to press all modifiers plus six keys at the same time.

It's as if USB has a "memory effect" problem. If you start playing with different keys the original problem clears itself, but if you repeat the test it happens again consistently.

I like that most of them are getting widely varying results.  I suspect that many are not holding down both shift keys, don't know how to type, don't know how to spell, are drunk, are REALLY drunk, stoned, or are actually gaming the stupid test to appear leet.

Blah, this is why I really don't like mega sites... too low of a signal to noise ratio.

In general; I notice the site does provide some inaccurate information to certain products or should I say people aren't providing proper information.

I'm no expert on computer equipment. But often times I see people post like on monitor section or the sound card section. And just out right buy said item by word of mouth and not proper research. Or just remain ignorant on newer technologies, maybe it's just segregated to a few sections of that site. But there really needs to be an overhaul of the information provided.

I'm not saying other electronic equipment sites are perfect but at least you see one or a few people come in who know what they are talking about, provide proper information.

THE QUICK BROWN FOX JUMPS O1900312120d3d0001er the lazy dog

Model F through a Blue Cube. The fact that both shifts and V will print 1900312120d3d0001 followed by releasing the shifts (probably reseting the keyboard) is probably to do with the adapter. Rather interesting effect... thanks OCN!

EDIT: Confirmed, the Belkin doesn't show that same effect. Scratch another point for the Belkin being the finest USB adapter on the market.

Yeah, it's doable. And ch_123, the implementation I'd use, if it were me designing it, would be a common "ground" plus one wire for the other side of each switch, all going direct to the connector (which would be huge of course) with all key interpretation happening inside the computer.

So, basically, doable...but if you're gonna do it, do the heck out of it.

He deleted it? I hope he used Delete AND Backspace, to be on the safe side.  :evil:

EDIT> I dug out my G11. It passes using the key combinations that my G15 failed (Shift or Control with arrow keys.)
I found a few combos that the G11 failed:
qa,
q,1
q1=
qa [Down Arrow]

So it's still 2-key rollover, just better thought out than the G15. (Unless anyone spots an unfortunate combo of 3 keys that it fails on.)

You thought double-shifted brown fox test was boring. Try hunting down keys that ghost.

I thought that it was more accurate if you alternated the right and left shift button with each keystroke, with the CAPSLOCK key on?

I believe they are doing the wrong tests. I for one never claimed that Shift-Up-Left failed. In fact that combo works fine on my G15 (Version 1 [strike]I assume since it has no version number[/strike]. The one with 18 macro keys.  P/N: 867619-0120 PID: BT619DG)

holding down the right Shift and/or Ctrl keys stops the inverted T direction keys from working well. E.g. Shift-Up-Right fails, Ctrl-Down-Left fails

I like that most of them are getting widely varying results.  I suspect that many are not holding down both shift keys, don't know how to type, don't know how to spell, are drunk, are REALLY drunk, stoned, or are actually gaming the stupid test to appear leet.

Sounds like me.

With all due respect, I wouldn't say that judging an entire forum that is specifically overclocking/gaming orientated on their knowledge on keyboards is fair.

That'd be like me coming here and assessing you on the effect of the PCI-E frequency when trying to use a high BCLK on an i7 CPU, then calling you stupid if you didn't fully understand.

Again, the 'with all due respect' thing of course...

The problem isn't that they're "doing it wrong" or "failing to understand". Nobody should be made fun of for that.

The problem is that while doing it wrong and/or failing to understand, they are also claiming that they are doing it right and/or understanding completely.

In order for your example to fit, we'd need to be claiming without prompting that we already do fully understand such timings.

I can't view the thread any more (it's been deleted for whatever reason) so I have absolutely no idea if the majority of the OCN userbase claimed to fully understand the subject at hand :o

But I see what you're saying. It's just that your... descriptions were a bit strong. It's not necessarily their fault that they're ignorant on the matter - there's a lot of misinformation floating around the internet, and they may have been told by someone at some point that what they're doing incorrectly is in fact correct, or something like that.

Maybe I'm just overly-sensitive because OCN is my home forum, or maybe I just wouldn't particularly like to see a huge group of people being generalised/branded for their ignorance on a specific topic.

Since every keyboard with moving parts of any kind is mechanical...well...whatever.

"Mechanical" is a lot more concise than saying "with individually engineered mechanisms that provide clean movement and ensure reliable switching." A model M fits this description. But yes, lots of fun to be had with people who don't know why the membrane is not a handicap to the model M.

If I was to be really anal, I'd argue that the only true mechanical keyboards are typewriter-derived keyboards which uses a completely mechanical mechanism to register the key presses.

I'm a member there, where I found out about the mech/topre keyboard community and then once you join that you realise they're all ignorant too the world of keyboards, it's quite funny the more you delve into a specific subject the more other people irritate you, I imagine having a PHD in something would drive you crazy.


It reminds me of when I got into lasers, at first Kipkay was God, you do a bit of reading and oh god he's hated by everyone and is in actual fact a tit.

sorry I rambled on slightly :p

Don't worry, the test has been fix'd.

Some people have replied saying that you should be using CAPS LOCK held down as well to get the most out of this test. If you want to update your tests, please try it again with CAPS LOCK as well.

A lot of today's generation has a problem with the concept of minimum and maximum.  See this revised version at HardForum (http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1627829).

Where did HiroPro go?  Reminded me of Hamblet.

I'm here...

Hey guys, I've been using cheap keyboards for many years... BUT I was working on a machine for a client that was an old IBM server and it has one of those old IBM keyboards. WOW is all I can say as I haven't used a Cherry mechanical in many years and I forgot how good it is. This got me thinking about purchasing a new keyboard. What do you guys think of the brand Mionix? They seem to have a nice stencil Cherry MX board with backlight keys that looks interesting but it's very expensive. Do any of you know who the ODM/OEM is as I don't think Mionix would manufacture anything but would just brand/stencil it.

Mionix Zibal 60

Opinions?
