Razer Arctosa of course haha

best damn keyboard i've had despite the low keys



Really?! I had it for about a week and thought it was awful - got a SteelSeries 7G instead... now that IS a keyboard. Can't fault it at all (apart from maybe the price )

Hey, does anyone have a razer blackwidow? Ive been looking into a new keyboard and it looks to be pretty good for me. wondering what anyone thinks of it?


Can anyone give a review about this keyboard, of your experience using it?

I would like to get a mechanical keyboard, and couldn't find anything else beside this blackwidow in my town.

Just got it today, after using a G15 for years I can't tell you in words how awesome a mechanical keyboard feels. I enjoy typing now and I can't get over the awesome clicks sounds haha.

same as mine but i have the blank keys


I wish they did a new black keyboard with black keys also.
Build quality of filco , blackwidow etc is nothing compared to these IBM style boards.

IIRC, Unicomp will sell you a bag of blank black keys with your keyboard for something like $25 or so (and maybe some other colours too) - email them for availability. That way you can replace the keycaps, pull off the ugly blue Unicomp numlock sticker and you've got yourself a poor man's Otaku!

Making black keys with white lettering uses a different dying process from the normal keys that Unicomp/IBM use, so your best bet for one of those is probably to trawl eBay and the like for one of the old IBM models that were made like that in the first place.

Found this browsing newegg, I think it's a really great deal and is similar to most of the keyboards discussed in the thread.

15$ wired mechanical anti-ghosting keyboard, no info on switch type. I just ordered one and will do my best to identify the switch type for those interested.

Thanks mate, I didn't do search with black widow as keyword ^^

I think I will wait some times before deciding.

Definitely NOT mechanical:

"Due to the integral elastic rubber dome design, it can prevent the rubber dome from being easily misaligned after being subjected to impact or drop."

I just bought a 6gv2 keyboard after reading a bit about mech switches - my first impressions :
The black Cherry MX keys are very lively (they give quite a feedback), they feel just a tiny bit heavier, but they feel great and robust, and give you the sensation that you can really abuse the keyboard and it will never fall apart. It does sound a bit louder than a rubber dome keyboard.

I can surely understand how the cherry browns might be better for typing, because of the feedback you get when the switch is actuated - the blacks need to be bottomed out so you can be sure the switch was pressed, which makes them ideal for button mashers. Overall great feel.

I also recently got a 6gv2. The black switches are a little bit heavier to press on and took a toll on my hands when I was spamming like crazy testing out my apm. My apm feels like its actually lower with the 6gv2 than my old stock keyboard.

If you mean in pure durability maybe, but I own both a unicomp model m copy, a real model m and a filco with browns and the filco is far and away the best keyboard in terms of quality.

So in the last two months I've gone from:

Steelseries 6gv2: good, but I didn't like the feel of black switches for every day typing and the ANSI layout was UK instead of US.

Blackwidow: also good although I didn't like the layout and the addition of macro keys that I would never use. I love the feel of blue switches, but my wife didn't like the sound. >_<

Filco majestouch w/ browns: perfect. Right layout and brown switches are a good compromise to the sound of blues.
