qtan5370 is considered a reliable seller. I would bet it is very good, but I have not used it. Those Red switches will be much easier to press than Blacks.

I currently use a cheap (wireless) keyboard so for me it is very hard to know what switches suit me the best. I would love to try some of them instead of reading the description. The only problem is that I live in Europe (The Netherlands) and I have no clue where I could find some of the keyboards to see/try them. Anyone have an idea how I could find out what switch suits me or where I can see some of the keyboards in a retail store?

I've got exactly the same problem dude


Well at least for Germany they have Razer Blackwidows and Steelseries 6Gv2s in Media Markt or Saturn. I expect a big electronics market in the Netherlands to have the same.
It's not much, but at least you can try black and blue switches.

The Media Markt I tried didn't have a mechanical keyboard. Maybe I need to try one in a really big city :/


gamegear.be ships to other countries as well & they got filco's, they're getting those corsair red switch keyboards as well, steelseries 7G, ss 6gv2, razer blackwidow, zowie celeritas,....

they have a forum as well so you might want to visit the website and the forum & ask there.


Been getting my stuff from there for ages & there hasn't been a single problem, ever!

No delays in delivery or anything else like.. I can definitely vouch for them.

if your not looking to spend more than 110 euros I suggest you get a Ducky or a g6v2 if you can get your hands on one.

lol not true at all

if its your first mecha keyboard try that. its veeery cheap ~50E(i got mine at a local store near linz for 34E). and has everything except for nkrollover, so unless you need that try this
LS is mx blue LP is black and LQ is clear (little heavier browns, i very much recommend this one, though blue is amazing too). I have a filco too, but i dont think its worth 3-4 times the price at all, and you wont get one cheap here

E: the "EU" and "DE" at the end indicates the layout. EU is the same as the UK layout i believe and DE obviously stands for deutsch

Its all opinion on what switch to use. For example I prefer browns, most people only talk about blues and blacks because those r the ones that are most readily available.
Whatever happens, happens

browns are basically blue light. they are a bit less tactile than blues and a lot lighter than clears(my favourite, very tactile, but very rare) and less noisy. blacks arent tactile, they are linear so they are a bit different and for me at least not very appealing

Pretty sure its because blackwidow has blues and g6v2 has blacks, however I really think both browns and reds are better for gaming, though I'd say topre ranks first(But isn't worth considering if price-performance is a concern)

I'll buy a mechanical keyboard in the near future. I guess it'll be Razer Blackwidow (good for playing SC2?). But because I live in Finland, there has to be ä, ö and å in the keyboard. Where could I buy Blackwidow with those buttons?

Just an FYI...

www.amazon.com

Has some of these keyboards on their site.

I don't care if you don't like steelseries but they have the 6gv2 for $88 and change. That euro site up there is ~$101 and change and steelseries site lists the keyboard at $99

Edit: I know for a fact they have some Das and Ducky keyboards as well as Steelseries and Razer.
