Title: kinda stuck on next keyboard
Post by: Seize on Tue, 06 August 2013, 07:15:39
im currently trying  sell my razer black widow 2013, in hong kong,

but im going to keep my steelseries as i do enjoy the mx blacks and this keyboard has taken so much abuse from me already from games,

but i have tried the mx reds and i'm hmm i do like them but i like the blues as well, im quite the odd one, i enjoy blues and sometimes i get pissy with the clicky sound hahaha,

and im looking for a keyboard without the numberpad as well,

any suggestions guys? :)

Filco TKL with browns.  Swap out the stock keycaps with doubleshots from Originative.

or you could get a realforce 45g :D

I'm liking those keycaps, as soon as i saw hello kitty ones my first thought were troll LOL

i will have to look into it as im currently situated in Hong Kong but im going back england in sep, so hopefully i can sell both my keyboards by then, =/ and one thing i found a bit irritating about the steelseries keyboard is that the letters on the keyboard they tend to start to go black and dark due to the everyday usage of it and i cant get it off =.=

The legends went black because the stuff used is probably wearing away.  Doubleshot keycaps wont have this issue.  Or you could try PBT dyesub keycaps they will last a long time too.

CM Storm QFR with brown switches might be a good choice for you. They are fairly affordable with good build quality. Great value.
