I really don't like all the "gaming" keyboards. They have all those excessive details and plastic, it's really ugly. Get a filco, it's the best quality, you can choose among lots of switch types, and they've got simplicity and elegance.

Id go for thermaltake, since it has the longest name possible.

Using razor blackwidow and it's pretty good so far.

I have the Das silent with the Cherry MX Browns. This thing is amazing and I'd totally recommend it for gaming. I have a few friends that got blue switches for gaming and stopped using them because they didn't like the way it felt with gaming, but to each his own.

Still, you can't go wrong with any keyboard with brown switches. I'd personally stay away from the keyboards marketed for gamers and go toward ones marketed for quality.

What league are you in? As I explain in my own blog, I really don't think it's necessary to have an expensive keyboard if you're below high masters

its not necessary to have an expensive keyboard if you're in GSL code S either, but if he wants a nice keyboard and he has the money then he should buy one :T

Use the information on the switches from this page to find out which of them suit you.

I currently have the das with blue switches in them. I really didn't think that the difference would be all that noticeable, but I was wrong. It feels a lot better. I'm also typing faster because it requires less force to do a keystroke. The keyboard is made pretty well. Also I love the sound. I recommend you get the das.

I'm using a Zowie Celeritas, I love it so far. Had Razer BWU and enjoyed it for quite a long time but the Celeritas is by far better for the money in my opinion. gL ^_^

Quality > "Gaming"

Have a Daskeyboard silent ultimate. (No key engravings is pretty cool)

Blackwidow, while neat looking and indeed mechanical, has the Macro keys on the left, so the positioning of the whole keyboard is skewed to the right, and the ctrl key isn't the left-most key on the keyboard - you'll be recommended to pull the M5 out, like others do. Getting used to it, I expect, will be frustrating. Furthermore few other keyboards have such a layout.
Not hating on Razer, I have a Razer mouse/pad. But for the keyboard, das [blue or browns you choose] is my recommendation.
