Gaming Keyboard

Hey GUY!!! im currently looking for a new gaming keyboard for my brother... as his bday is coming up next month... and hes been living on a PS/2 keyboard which we bought when we bought our first desktop...

i have 3 keyboard in mind at the moment... money is not an issue its all about the looks and what it can do...

first of all he loves to play DotA on my desktop cause i have the Logtiech G15 Keyboard (the one with the blue light, not the red)

so right now im tossing up between the keyboard which i got now and the Razer Lycosa - which one would YOU buy for your self?????

also i want to know if the Razer Lycosa can be programed like the Logitech G15..... while your in the game you can program your keys by pressing the "Memory" key which is above the Macro Keys and lock in the set of keys which is needed
If mostly for gaming, why not a keypad?

Why am I the only MMGNer who uses a keypad? :(
You're not alone Desi. I use my keypad too. ^_^

I think that board even has Skarteh approval [MOG]
Lights are about the only reason. Take the lights out of it and you have nothing special, just a DAS level of quality. Basically I'd put Ducky between BlackWidow and DAS quality wise, Leopold FC500R is miles better and FC700R miles better again.
Really? I thought DAS were the best of the best. Being German and all.

Nope, they look good but they're pretty meh quality wise. Just very light and cheap feeling compared to the Leopold keyboards.

Ah, good to know, since that was probably going to be my next choice for an upgrade.

Out of curiosity, what is your take on Tt keyboards? :P
Avoid Tt without exception.
Another vote for Leopold. This thing is tough. I dropped it on tiles when I was carting it around, and not a scratch on it. Great weight as well.

Why didn't you tell me this before I bought it? :P

It's ok, but nowhere near as good as my mates Leopold.
I probably would have if I noticed :P
u shud get a blcakwid0w bcoz razer r gud guise
Using a Leopold is like sticking your finger into a.....yeah it's really nice to use =_=
What keyboard would be better to buy. Thinking of getting the Leopold FC700R but not sure which switch to get, and also which colour keyboard to get. :P

Would the white get really dirty as in the keyboard changing colour. I don't really eat around my keyboard, but if I do it is usually a bag of chips or something.
Leopolds and Filcos are awesome, pity I have neither : <
Where do we stand on the Corsais K60?
Super tempted to get one because its like the only mech keyboard available at my local.

i wouldn't bother if it has Cherry Red. It wont really tell you what a mechanical is like. Leopold is very good for the money. FC700 to me weeks better than my new Majestouch 2. The Filco has nicer keystroke but the PBT caps make the FC700 feel way better, and adding the price into it further defeats the Filco argument.

Coolermaster Quickfire might be worth considering. I would recommend Blue or Brown switches to start with.

So Leopold over Filco, you would say?
Is it me or has there been a recent popularity boost when it comes to mechanical keyboards recently?
