They were the only mechanical switches I was able to try out personally and from what I read those were the ones to try out anyways. | ||

Looks like alot of people who had there black widows and steelseries, have all jumped ship to the Browns.... Seems like Brown is the new blue/black | ||

Filco Tenkeyless with Brown I prefer the red switches and key caps on the Noppoo (POM) but the Filco is heavier and has a more traditional layout. Then again, the layout on the Noppoo is better for sc2 than the filco imo since you can easily rebind 0987 to F1 f2 f3 f4. I know a lot of people have screens there but F5 and F6 plus the key to the left of 1 is good enough for me when it comes to screen hotkeys. I also prefer typing on reds. Chances are that I will try to get my hands on a Filco tenkeyless with reds at some point down the the road. Will most likely have to sell my future first born though. Some things are worth sacrificing for. | ||

Noppoo Choc Mini w/ Brown Ducky 9008 w/ Brown The Ducky is by far my favorite, slightly loud, superb feel when typing etc. Doesn't really improve my gaming though, its all about the typing experience. | ||

I personally use browns and I don't like them. I have to bottom out on my keys, and even then (attempting to bottom out) I miss keypresses sometimes. I was thinking the tactile bump of browns would be more pronounced or that it would feel different, maybe more like a silent blue, but that's not the case. I think I would like a black or blue switch, or maybe a combo of black and blue as strange as that sounds. Certainly not very happy with browns, but I didn't pay much at all for this expensive keyboard, so I'm overall content. | ||

Aside from the awesome front-printed keys, the keyboard itself is absolutely awesome. It makes me enjoy typing, and the only thing that annoys me about it is the fact that the keycaps I use more often have been pretty quick to get rather shiny. Still, the keys feel like an absolute wonder, and literally it makes me want to just ramble on when I type because it feels so good. It hasn't made my SC2 any better, in fact I had to take a few days to get completely used to it, but I still don't regret the purchase because it really does feel simply amazing. | ||

but touch-wise, I am not sure. Personally I feel the sound is more important than the actual typing feel :p On August 06 2011 20:17 Skamtet wrote: No, but it's all about the feeling, and it helps again RSI and such aswell. I would say yes, everything becomes more precise since I know I have pressed the key with just the sound. I am now more accurate in my typing too. | ||

That aside, I'm fine with typing with the blacks. Took a little to get used to, but I can type faster with this keyboard and my accuracy hasn't suffered too much. | ||
