mechanical keyboard suggestions

[PRIMO]

hi folks im looking at a new keyboard as mine has finally bit the dust. got the chance to splash out on a posh one.

can anyone recomend a good mechanical board with plenty of macro keys, preferably red lighting but not too fussed.

thanks in advance,
primo

I have a...Logitech G110 that has like 36 macro keys and changeable colour lighting...it wasn't expensive like £30 or so. I mainly just use it for typing words though :|

i would buy a mouse with programmable buttons

latest logitech gaming keyboard is almost always the best choice

@tai my friend has this board i quite like it but i got a fair bit of spare cash so wanting to get a posh mechanical board.

@ervinzed i have a cyborg mmo 7 with plenty of buttons on , just my macro keyboard has failed so need a new board.

@jacko ill have a look at what they got to offer just looked at corsair so far but the only buttons that arent mechanical are the f keys and macros (which is a bugger for mir)

Did you happen to use the 90% off glitch? Or you just loaded? :P

i got a pair of razer megalodan headphones, and while the sound is great the build quality is shocking, mic is garbage(which is a common problem) and a lot of people have issues with the lights not working.

I don't think id buy with razor again, so many better / cheaper alternatives out there.

Filco.

That's the company I use to send me my Mechanical keyboards. Got one for typing and one for gaming (blue and brown switch respectively)

They're pricey, but you get what you pay for.

QFT, razer + logictech keyboards are just cheaply built rubber dome keyboards with macros + lights to make them look pretty and boost the price up. Although OP wanted macro keys so I just didn't bother replying earlier.

Hard to convince someone to buy such a keyboard until they try the switches out themselves. got a red switch Majestouch-2 and it's the best keyboard by far imo.
