Sup everybody, so i've had the CM storm for a week now and im getting pretty used to it, nice keyboard overall.

Untill this morning when the keyboard decided to die on itself. I thought it was maybe the connection on the ps2 that was fucking it up, but atlas the USB doesnt respond whatsoever either, any other keyboard works fine.

So i guess im going to go return it and see what i will do, don't really feel like getting another one after this, but living in the netherlands its pretty hard to get my hands on a brand such a filco =/

Does anyone have any suggestions? Many thanks!


I live in The Netherlands and imported a Ducky keyboard from qtan's store. Quoted in the OP (qtan5370's E-Bay Market (Ducky, Filco, KBC, Keycool, Noppoo, Pulu, and HPE + custom keycaps to buy) Link)

Took over two weeks to get here, but I found that well worth it.

I ended up ordering a WASD v2 TKL, hopefully it lives up to expectations. I hear it's pretty similar to my old Filco, which I loved. Anyone who's received their v2 yet? It says they are in stock but I ordered 2 days ago and they haven't shipped it yet.

I want to give a formal message of gratitude to Vete: Thank you, this keyboard is awesome.

I like the clicking, but if it becomes unbarable at some point, what are your opinion on o-ring dampeners?

Which one is better? They are both CM Storm, except that one is a Trigger, while the other is Quickfire Ultimate. I have no clue what's the difference between the two. A quick Google search indicates that the Ultimate is newer, which might be the one that Polt is using, as I remember his was an unreleased product when I asked a few months ago.

I'm trying to decide between getting a cmstorm green switch TKL and a noppo choco mini. Anyone have experience with either of these keyboards for starcraft? Anyone have any experience with green switches.

No experience with those boards or the Noppo or greens, but greens are very heavy. They're even heavier than blacks and I wouldn't recommend somebody to buy them blind.

Edit: Just realized you said TKL cm storm. I'm assuming you mean the QuickFire Rapid, which I do have with reds and it is a fantastic keyboard.

polt uses quickfire pro, but ultimate is practically identical it's just fully backlit.

This keyboard is interesting.
Not just the hardware switches included but also the material (niiice), and Cherry MX Clears (!) for $150. Available in 10keyless as well

I bit the bullet and bought a CM Storm Quickfire Ultimate Cherry Blue. However I noticed that there's no wrist wrest. Is there any way to get a wrist wrest installed? I can feel it in my wrists already so I'll probably have to alternate between my CM Storm for gaming, and my Microsoft Natural Ergonomic 4000 for every day use.

By installed, I mean make it permanent. Not by buying a gel type of wrist wrest and leaving it on the desk.

np Bro.


Well I never bought O rings also I cannot share experience about them . Normally I hear my sounds with in-ear phones or with my Logitech G430 so I haven't got such a problem .

I guess the others should share their experience because I only buy hardware things in Germany due to warranty and shipping.

Hi

I'm thinking of replacing my Steelseries 6gv2 MX Red with something. I'm looking into the Ducky 9008 Shine 3 MX Brown.

But I have some questions before I decide. Do I have to install anything for the Shine 3? (Software and stuff) and does the Shine 3 have media controls because I can't seem to find it.

You don't have to install any software, and it does have a volume up/down/mute feature. If your looking for something more advanced, then it doesn't have it.

How resilient is the Blackwidow TE? There is a ton of negative feedback about the Blackwidow keyboards... I feel bad for ordering it and think about cancelling my order tomorrow.

Uhh.

I wouldn't buy a blackwidow TE simple because there are far superior keyboards in the same price range.

foolish to knowingly buy a lesser quality product for the same price as high quality products.


having said that, if i was going to buy any razor keyboard it would be the TE without a doubt.

They released a firmware update more than a week ago that added a new feature which is called 'Aurora Lighting Mode'. Otherwise it's just plug and go.
