Happens every two months like clockwork.

This guy wants the Geekhack name for bragging rights and name recognition.

I have to say it is working. I must have seen this pic on a dozen forums aroundd the world.

Hey guys! I posted a separate thread about coming to a conclusion about purchasing a mechanical keyboard. Basically what it's coming down to is people's testimonials about their particular favorite switch as it pertains to my usage. I'm a gamer, and I enjoy my typing, but it's all leisure and not work. I've heard that blacks and reds with their linear switches lend themselves towards gaming. To people using these switches I would like to know if you struggle with learning to actuate the switch w/o bottoming out while spamming keys, particularly the same one over and over again.

My other option is Cherry MX Brown or Blue switches. Any testimonies from gamers (the more important of my preferences) about using browns/blues?

The KBs I'm looking at are the CM Storm Quick Fire Rapid, the Rosewill RK-9000, or the Leopold Tenkeyless.

Also, who prefers costar to cherry stabilizers or vice versa?

blues are loud without o-rings or sound dampners!
I myself have a ducky shine with cherry blues and I can tell my parents get annoyed when I end up spamming keys when playing a MMO or typing rapidly.

can't comment on browns. I've used black switches but didn't really like them.

I'm very satisfied with my ducky shine vs the OEM dell keyboard that i used to use.

Is there a place where i can buy Custom Cherry MX keycaps and O-rings in The Netherlands or that will ship to me ?

Thanks in advance smile.gif

Hi All,

Has anyone tried the XArmor U9W? It's the only wireless mechanical keyboard I can find, and I'd like to try it out if it's halfway decent.

Thanks!

I have not tried it but: good OEM, good layout, great price on sale there. I would get it. Then let us know how it is.
