Title: Gigabyte GK-K8000
Post by: Manyak on Thu, 30 April 2009, 02:13:46

Apparently Gigabyte's got a new keyboard coming out with cherry black switches. Its even got a built in sound card, lol. I think I'll be picking this up for gaming as long as its a full 10-key rollover (being USB and all).

It's certainly not the prettiest keyboard in the world, but I would proabably check one out if it had browns instead of blacks.

Yeah, it's been coming out for at least a year now.

I thought this was already out.  I say a place once selling it, and I've seen pictures of users that own it.

I heard the build quality is rather poor.  So, if you want a black cherry gaming board, it seems Steelseries is still the best.
