[Keyboard] Mechanical keyboard?

[hopelessnoob]

My Rosewill rk9000 died and I am looking to replace it with another brown switch keyboard. I was hoping to get a keyboard with wrist rest under 150. The corsair k70 looks very good but it's slightly above my budget. Any other alternatives?

corsair k70 (non-rgb) but buy from amazon??

 

[hopelessnoob]

It's 129 usd which is about 5 dollars cheaper than in sg...

Is the k70 better than all other keyboard in the price range?

I saw this brand Func. Red led. Its a rebranded tesoro I think. Ard 135 at Tecdrome. Looks quite nice with positive reviews.

is there anywhere else to buy from other than SLS?
Funan has 1 store but seems expensive there.

No more IT fair promo for keyboards? i got my rosewill from IT show at 99 3 years ago.

Either SLS, Funan or online stores like Amazon/Lazada. IT show prices are usually quite similar to what is currently being sold in SLS stores.

Yup, I'm using this too and I really like it.

Could be better aesthetically, but nothing wrong.

"CM Firestorm Quick Fire Pro" cannot be found in any sim lim shops. There is other type like the xt,tk,stealth, ultimate...any ideas which to get? I prefer the bronw keys. Any guidance from hardwarezone bros?Thanks

I'm using the QuickFire Pro MX Blue. 2.5 years already, still going strong. I think the ultimate is the quickfire pro's replacement model (full backlit led on the ultimate vs partial backlit led on the pro).

Thanks bro for the reply....Any ideas, what is good for RGB keyboard? Now thinking of getting either K70 or Quickfire ultimate...both looks awesome to me, first time getting expensive keyboard.

I have no experience on the k70 so i wun comment. Stayed away frm corsair keyboards during my purchase period coz i read corsair k60 was mixed mechanical and membrane keyboard.

My bro bought the ultimate mx brown from PCThemes recently. List price $158, managed to bargain till Yilong gave me as $138. The different MX switches come with different led lighting: Blue for MX Blue, red for MX Red and White for MX Brown.

Overall i feel this ultimate is still the ultimate buy if u wan a full-sized full-led backlit keyboard. Looks and feels more decent as a keyboard than the cheaper Tesoro Durandal (u need to actually see the Tesoro keyboard layout to get wad i mean), yet build quality and performance is on par with the overpriced Ducky keyboards.

i like cm kb but i can understand how some would prefer dedicated media keys, which only a few brands like corsair and razor have them.

Oops I made mistake, mine's the Ultimate.
Looks just like the Pro, lol

that is for rgb. there is also non-rgb version.

 

[Synchroniza]

Deciding between cm quickfire ultimate and steelseries 6gv2 both in red switches... anyone ever compared these two?

 

[Sensational]

that is for rgb. there is also non-rgb version.

but i read that its better to get the rgb version because corsair fixed the LED issues there. the previous one got problems?
