Post new keyboard
I need a new keyboard,any suggestions? It needs to be from a good company and have pretty springy buttons.Money is no problem but that doesnt mean it has to be the most expensive one you can find.And i dont really like the way that logitech one with the lcd on it looks.Ive been using a dell for the past 5 years but sadly they dont make it anymore and the new ones look like shit.

Lawlers.

Yeah I use a Dell one too. They are simple and have good keys. I don't know how good of a typer you are but my next keyboard will be http://www.daskeyboard.com/ because apparently it has really good keys, even if the letters aren't on them.

The Razer is my altime favorite. I couldn't afford it when I just bought a new one, so I had to go with this one.

I like it because the keys glow and I can play better in the dark. It's pretty nice, but no macros.

Just depends what you are looking for.

I've seen the Saitek in stores before and it just looks like a cheap Piece of Shit to me.

I bought the NEW SAITEK ECLIPSE 2 two months ago. Pretty badass. It comes with three backlight colors (red, blue, violet) you can change it to your preference if you're into colored backlights lol. A very good choice if you dont want to over spend your money for a razer tarantula (which is like a 100$) http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1 ... 578,00.asp

It should be available in all best buy or circuit city branches everywhere.

bout $60+

Turk im digging that saitek but i have one question.Does the knob control the volume? or can it? My old dell has a rotary volume in the same place and i had much rather have that than the up down thingys.

And thanks for the help guys,I also like the one that has no lettering on the keys but i cant type that well and i like the tarantula also.

The little knob controls the backlight intensity.... the volume control(just the up/down thingy) and the mute buttons are right beside it.
