Razer BlackWidow Stealth Edition

Description:
The Razer BlackWidow was the first mechanical gaming keyboard designed to pave way for a whole new feel and accelerated gameplay. Now, the Razer BlackWidow Stealth Edition delivers the same superior gaming-grade response with a quieter but no less distinctive tactile feedback to your fingertips, all in an ultra sleek finish. Its five additional macro keys, on-the-fly recording and optimized key matrix allow you to stay in complete control of every covert assault on your adversaries.
Silent mechanical key architecture for superior tactility and faster response
The Razer BlackWidow Stealth's mechanical key technology provides a distinctive yet silent tactile feedback in form of a light pronounced tap to your fingers, giving you an entirely new feel on your gaming keyboard. With an optimized actuation force of 45g and a reduced actuation distance of 2mm, the Razer BlackWidow Stealth Edition's keys allow actuation of your commands faster than any other standard keyboard.
On-the-fly macro recording and profiles for effortless configuration
Record an unlimited number of macros on-the-fly without having to take an eye off the game, and immediately change between up to 10 profiles without delving into the driver software. With a simple press of two buttons to initiate and end macro recording, you're all set for world domination.
Macro keys and Gaming Mode for an uninterrupted gaming experience
Expand your repertoire of easy-to-reach commands with the additional 5 macro keys on the side and avoid any distractions by switching to Gaming Mode.

Awesome keyboard

review by overclock noob

If you are thinking about buying this keyboard and know what you want, buy it. Has an optional gaming mode to turn off the windows key(every board should have this!). Non-glossy matte finish unlike the older BlackWidow. And uses Cherry MX Brown switches for a quieter keystroke. Macro keys might be a bit close but can be removed. The selling point was no back lighting. For an additional 50$ you can get the back-lit one. Would've been a plus but for 79$ +shipping it couldn't be beat. Too sum everything up, This is the best keyboard I've owned so far. I didn't bother with the Logitechs and went straight for the best. Price to performance cannot be beaten. Razer has great customer support and their products are even better. I use a DeathAdder BA and this keyboard goes perfectly well with that. If you are a gamer, BUY IT.

ProsCons
Great keyboard for gaming no back lighting, but not a con. I knew what I was buying.
