HI guys, after reading a lot of the post and recommendations on this site i decided it was time to start a thread regarding my purchase of a mechanical keyboard.
It's primary use will be for gaming though i will do a higher lvl of education after my holiday( in Holland there are 5 forms i did 3 and will be doing 4) wich will probably require me to type a lot for school.
The switches i think are most suited for me are either RED or BLACK switches made by cherry.
I am quite strong in m fingers because i play have been playing the piano now for almost 8 years. (16years old atm)
I do not have a lot of money for the keyboard and even if i could afford the keyboard shipping would eliminate it from my list of available mechs, just because it's so darn expensive to get something shipped to Holland.
i have looked at:
CM STORM QFR with red ( 90euro's at the cm store and not available from dutch retailers.
Steelseries 6GV2 which uses black switches. this one is in my budget and i may be able to try it out tomorrow.
i was also looking at the Keycool 87 with reds and black case though i don't know where i can order one.(except for all those asian sites i don't understand =S)
And last i was looking at a Qpad mk-50 with reds (not sure about this one, a lot of ppl seem to be meh about Qpad)
*also ten keyless is not a problem, but the mini layouts seem really cramped to me, do those miss any buttons?*
My budget is around 70 Euro's 80 would really stretch it.
I have also heard about a forwarding service from some members @ GH but i don't know how that would expand my options.
I'm sorry about this epic wall of text but i'm kind of lost in the dark and i need someone to show me the light. =)
