I got blue cherry and even though I never tried anything else I imagine how black or brown feels like so I think for RTS the best is blue cherry if you don't mind the sound of course.

-.- .....

Brown is blues without a distinct click noise and a VERY small difference in actuation pressure.

45 for brown
50 for blue.

IMO blues and brown are essentially the same. Just blues have a loud click.

Browns are still pretty loud to type on.

Well I read that blue ones have little bit bigger tactile bump, and that should be better for RTS.

Anyways as I said I didn't try browns.

Browns are quieter, that's the only difference between browns and blues.

Also, as someone who imported a Ducky (only $90!) I have to say it's a pretty solid keyboard, with ONE exception: the arrow keys are sunk into the keyboard, which takes a bit to get used to. Also, I used to pull my keyboard around with my arrow keys (horrible habit I'm sure) and now I can't do it anymore

Just bought my Filco Majestouch with browns as well as a pimped out escape key here. Looking forward to receiving it. I was toying with tenkeyless, but there are certain little features I like more with the full keyboard. The gold filco lettering, the led's and I do use my number pad quite often. I paid a lot. But this will complete my desk/peripheral set up quite nicely, and now I should be done spending money... I hope.

I'm debating getting either a 6gv2 or a Filco Majestouch; the latter does seem a bit pricy, but the former has a slightly weird layout. Does anyone know how they compare in feel with the old amazing Keytronic keyboards (and with eachother)?

I bought the Razer Black Widow not too long ago. I'm super satisfied.

Gotta be honest and say I've had my issues with Razer, but this is working pretty flawless.

And the click sounds from mech keyboards are pure sex.

Happy with my RK9000. High quality keyboard for a decent price. I'd pretty much only replace it for a tenkeyless Leopold or Filco.

Since this seems to be the primary mechanical keyboard thread I thought I would post in here and let everyone know that EliteKeyboards has started pre-orders on the Leopold Ten-keyless. Buying myself the "Otaku" version, which is Cherry MX Browns + blank keys. Been wanting a blank ten-keyless for a while now, but don't feel like paying $250+ for a Happy Hacking or RealForce keyboard. Also, I use a Rosewill RK-9000 atm and am interested in seeing how different browns are from blues.

To all you guys waiting for them to come in the mail. Totally worth every second/cent, if you have never had a mech keyboard. Red switches are really hard to come-by it seems someone should really jump on Keyboardco and snatch those up.

I just got my Filco Majestouch cherry browns in the mail today, had to wait for a week, which is ok, it was a bit expensive to get it through customs, but I live in norway so I guess nothings cheap.

That aside, the keyboard is simply amazing, it feels really good and I love typing and gaming on it. The feel is a bit weird at first coming from a rubber dome keyboard, but after a few hours you get used to it and its damn awesome.
