I just ordered myself a CM Storm Quick Fire Rapid with Black switches.

 

I hope that this will be a nice improvement over a Logitech G110.

 

Also this is my first ever mechanical keyboard.

How is the CM Storm Trigger?
Do you guys think I should get the Ducky Shine or CM Storm Trigger in terms of overall performance/quality/build

I ordered my CM Storm Rapid with (Red switches) and I cannot wait to get this keyboard. I have been typing on a rubber dome my entire life and I have always wanted a mechanical keyboard. Anyways I will post a lengthy review of the keyboard as well as show off some custom keycaps when the keyboard arrives. Cheers!

Well buddy, you've made a great choice. Rapid with reds is my second mechanical, and I love typing on this thing more than my previous ducky browns. While brown switches have a nice tactile bump, typing on the reds feels a lot easier, smoother, quieter, and fun! Love the color scheme and rubberized frame too. Enjoy it!

You can mod it and put the red springs in the brown switches ^^

I've been through about 7 mechanical boards in the last few months tryin to find the perfect board for me and I too decided on the CM Storm Rapid w/ Reds. I absolutely LOVE this board for everything. I bought one for home for gaming and a little typing and one for work for a lot of typing (like now, lol) and zero gaming. It really is a great board if you don't need the keypad which I don't. Just awesome and for the fraction of the price of a Filco. I've also got a Filco TKL w/ Blacks and the build quality is nearly identical so I really can't tell the difference that would cost 50 dollars more. Just crazy talk. I'll be selling the Filco shortly.

Welp, I have a Filco Tenkeyless w/ Browns at home and just ordered a CM Storm QuickFire Rapid w/ Blues for the office.

I was so afraid of damaging the NON REMOVABLE cable of my Filco toting it back and forth everyday, even in the box it came in. Glad this one has removable cabling smile.gif
