I have a keyboard with Cherry MX Reds (Filco Majestouch Linear) and i must say, it isn't difficult to type on at all, i've tried almost every switch except for Cherry MX Clear, and i must say, Red is easily my favorite so far.

Is there anywhere you can get completely custom keycaps? Like, choose your inking method, and upload a bunch of vectors for the graphics, then pay out the ass, and have a boss mode custom keyboard 2 weeks later?



Not sure if wasd fully suits your needs but it's the closest thing I can think of:

Oh man I want a keyboard with reds, really want to try them out.

Finally checkered my Das Keyboard, probably gonna sell it to a friend or something and get something else with PBT caps.

I didn't think it was a big deal when I got the Das...but it feels so cheap...

I'm looking for new keyboard, is KBC Poker 40 Cherry MX Blue a good choice? Or are there better choices?

What is the difference between the regular Razer Blackwidow and the Blackwidow Ultimate? Also, if you had to recommend for mainly RTS play, the blackwidow or Das?

Ok if any one has questions about mechanical keyboards just PM and I will try to help. But to answer a few posts now, G force personally I think that the poker isnt the best for sc because It doesnt have a f row, to access your f keys u need to hit the function key which gets in the way a lot. There are better choices out there. Duke the Ultimate is backlite and also has an extra audio port not really worth the extra money imo. Both the das and the black widow are good for RTS but i would say das has a better overall quality to it.
Whatever happens, happens

Ultimate has LED lit keys. Personally I like the Das more then the Blackwidow but I don't think there's to big if a difference with them when actually use. Blackwidow looks ugly to me.

I don't think Blackwidow comes with standard keys. Like the right click key beside the left alt look different. Also you'd have to get the same font on the keycaps or I'd look absolutely retarded.

when using them i cant tell the difference between reds and blacks(10g?). youd have to have both next to each other to really tell the difference

I got a blackwidow
Considering the price, it's amazing
But there are several things that annoy me, mostly the left shift key and the a+1+2 (and other combinations) not working

Thanks! I don't mind paying a little premium to get what I want unless it's outrageously more expensive. I checked it out the links and it's about 130 pounds with shipping and VAT for the larger ones. That's just a bit higher than other mechanical keyboards I've looked at here in sweden and most of them not as well spoken of. Can you tell me anything about the keyboard company? Reputation and such.

I bought a Filco tenkeyless keyboard form Keyboardco recently and I have to say the service and everything was great. ;p

I got the keyboard about 5 days after I ordered it(I live in Canada) It was well packed, tracked, and one of the people working at keyboard company emailed me to give me a receipt, make sure I'd received it and was happy with it etc. So speaking from personal experience I'd definitely recommend them.(Everyone I've talked to who's dealt with them has said pretty much the same thing, which was what prompted me to order from them. It's stupidly hard to find good mechanical keyboards where I live -.-; worse if you want filco)
Goddamnit this is the most retarded thing I will read all week and it's only fucking tuesday. ~Hawk

as far as i know its great, a friend of mine ordered a filco from germany, no problems whatsoever, its pretty well known too and the only site where you can buy filcos in europe anyways, so you dont have much choice

also i doubt you get a swedish layout of filcos anywhere else(i guess you want one?)

Thanks guys. I've seen a few Filco's at swedish "e-bay" sites but they are not much cheaper and you never know where they have been.

And yeah I was primarily looking for a swedish layout, so that is great. I could do with a english version but that's only as a last resort.

I ordered a filco with brown switches from getDigital.de a german site. I think their shipping to us is pretty cheap. Note the site is available in english!

Did anyone play FPS games on blues? I'm thinking about blackwidow/6gv2 and i want to play SC2 and Counter Strike/Battlefield. How blues feel in holding keys down?

totally fine. why would holding down be a problem. only issue very few had with blues is doubleclicking keys. ive never experienced that. if you can play with a membrane keyboard both are like heaven compared. i find blacks boring though. and for typing no question blue are by far the best

http://geizhals.at/295893?plz=&t=v&va=b&vl=pl&v=e#filterform

look at those. first is blue second is with mx blacks. might wanna try one of these, very cheap(a bit cheaper than blackwidow/6gv2 for sure) and quality id rate above actually. might wanna google translate that site though its german
