Mechanical Keyboard Club! (Now with fancy title!) - Page 738

I recently got a Corsair K60.

359

The wrist guard is alright, not for me though. I like how it holds the keys for you.

700

Also this tool that it comes with it great for easily picking up the keys.

700

The esc-f12 and prtscn through pagedown buttons are rubber domes, but everything else is mechanical. It's a good keyboard for me at least since I came from a crappy rubber dome 90's IBM keyboard to this. I like the volume scroll thingy on it and the mute button and the lock windows buttons so that you don't accidentally exit your game by pressing them when you're gaming.

Really? IBM's look pretty well built to me, and they're more textured and a cream-ish color, well, at least that's what it looks like on my monitor.

I'm still kinda on the look out for a CM Storm Trigger. The red back lighting and Cherry MX-Brown switches are what I am looking for. The keyboard also seems to have minimized t he CM Storm branding compared to their other mechanical keyboards. It also has powered USB ports and they're placed in an optimal spot. I wonder what's taking them so long to get into US stores.

I also would like to get a Topre in the future...

Ugh, this mechanical keyboard thing has become something like an addiction.

I've decided that if it's inevitable that I will go Mech keyboard insane, then I might as well skip all the middle steps and just go straight to the best mechanical keyboard available.
