WHY DID I BUY THIS WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

I'm not an accountant

Looks like you're just another retard who fell for the gaymur meme.

no it was just on sale and my build budget was tight. I deeply regret it

I have that keyboard and I love it. I bought it because I had a Logitech G110 and the long length of the keyboard started to annoy me. So many unused keys to my left and right, and it never fit right on my desk. I love my Logitech G Pro Tenkeyless. Perfect size and the keys feel amazing.

>the keys feel amazing

lmao

neither am I but I still have a real keyboard

The best purchase I have ever made.

spent like $130 on a keyboard with a down syndrome layout.

I had a shine 6 on my last built but I cheaped out this time. happy with the PC but the keyboard was a mistake for sure
I will never use the numpad and it ruins the ergonomics + spacing with my mouse.

I really like that keyboard. The size fits well with my desktop and the keys feels nice.

>retard is a chloefag

I got it because it's tenkyless and has a lower click delay than the vast majority of keyboards. Almost all mechanical keyboards are shit anyways because of how tall the keys and actuation distance are.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know etc etc,

As someone who uses the numpad for games, X3 in particular, it's totally not needed for most games. Most games put the buttons you use around WASD, and are made with the expectation of you keeping your right hand on your mouse, and being compatible with laptops that have an Fn numpad. The ergonomic benefits of a shorter keyboard letting you keep your mouse closer to you, without putting your keyboard at a weird angle, outweigh the functionality of extra buttons you probably never use.

Da fuck kind of connector is that?

>tfw bought a rosewill mechanical for total of 80 canadian rupees
Pretty good value

I emulate a lot of games and usually use my right hand on the keypad since mouse doesn't work with emulation. Even apart from that though a keypad seems handy because typing numbers isn't that uncommon, even if its just typing in credit card to buy video

>not Topre

Need, no. Enjoy using, yes. You buy one because hitting the keys feels more satisfying than a membrane. It's not going to make you magically better at vidya/typing, but it will feel better.

Old games use them, plus they're a godsend for entering more than 5 numbers at a time. More importantly, the keyboards that don't have TKs aren't significantly cheaper, so why bother buying a board that's missing a standard part?

>They are so useless
they are used to type numbers user

That's what the number row is for.

there are already numbers on top

That makes you chicken peck with both hands instead of being able to enter numbers blind quickly with one hand.

The G Pro is a tight little keyboard. Big keyboards are clunky. With the G Pro, you can kick back with the keyboard solidly on your lap while playing. Try that with a big keyboard and watch how quickly the keyboard ends up on the floor. Plus, I can't rememeber all the key assignments for all the games I play and programs I use, so I love that I can create custom LED colored keys for any game or program. I use a subtle dark red for all the keys I don't use often, and then I use bright colors for the keys I need to use. It's a very, very helpful reminder that you learn that you cannot live without once you don't have it. And the key-presses are like some combination in between dome-switch and Cherry mechanical, truly the best of both worlds and a very satisfying feel once you get accustomed to the board.

I own one and it's the best keyboard I've owned.

If I get a mechanical keyboard should I get red or blue switches?

Red if you play games. The actuation force is great.

brown

Tenkeyless and a separate numpad is Godtier.

Just move it out of the way for gaming sessions.

if I EVER need a numpad, I'll buy a separate USB one
and I do in fact have one for when I use Blender

Get whichever switch feels better to you. A particular switch type isn't going to make you noticeably better (or even better at all) compared to another switch type.

Sup Yea Forums, I rescued this razer keyboard from a friend who was about to give up on it. One night he got really drunk and ended up puking all over the lower right side of the keyboard. I asked him to hand over the keyboard so I could attempt a resuce mission. After cleaning up the extensive puke damage on the board, the fucker finnaly turned on and now works like a charm.

How does it look /mkg/? Did I do good? Sure, its not as fancy nor as expensive as one of those filco keyboards, but hey, I got it for free. Has razer gree switches (pretty much blue switches)

i can see that causing problems in some games if the input method isn't swapped automatically since you're technically using a controller and m+kb at the same time but i don't think many games have issues with that nowadays

I use Blender every day and I have no idea how you can stand having a separate numpad, that shit gets old fast

how does this receive a signal from video though

mouse buttons

It works by having a second layer of functions behind a function-key. It's actually pretty neat once you've gotten used to it, never having to leave home row. The only thing I miss when using a similiar kb is the numpad.

it's on your computer, otherwise you have to split the HDMI signal, get a HDMI to composite adapter, composite USB capture card, and a raspberry pi or something
but even with all those things, the pi is probably the most expensive part ($30)

>he doesn't use a numpad for extra binds

>tfw have nonstandard layout that nobody makes keycap sets for

if you just want to use it on your computer, then you don't have to do anything special with HDMI, it just captures your screen, there are millions of guides on youtube

sure that makes sense if you're playing something that affords you the time to reach over to the other side of your keyboard. most sensible people use their extra mouse buttons for that though.

You use mechanical if you find yourself using a keyboard rigorously over long periods of time. Whether or not they're better for video games is debatable, but you definitely notice a large improvement when typing up long reports, spreadsheets, and other office type work. Place I work at has a longtime partnership with monoprice so everybody has one of these to type with, and even then we're allowed to bring our own if we choose.

Turns out I was wrong about Filco downgrades but you're really out of the loop if you think the names I mentioned are not as good as or better than Filco boards in the current day and you really obviously don't follow the keyboard market enough if you think their success is a majorly a result of advertisement.

Ghosting was unnoticeable/nonexistant in Starcraft 2 while ghosting made SC2 unplayable on a similarly priced Logitec g510 keyboard. It's been almost 5 years now with this board and it's starting to miss a click here and there. I wouldn't buy anything new from Razer though. Shit's gone south.

of course not, they're luxury items for people with money to waste, but it's a fun waste at that

I got mine for like $5 five or six years ago, still working perfectly. Never saw the point in investing in a more expensive one, don't see myself getting mileage out of it.

I got a K120, it looks almost exactly the same but it doesn't have that useless bar of keys on top of the F1, etc buttons. I also don't even remember when I got it, and it's not showing any signs of breaking anytime soon. Best $5 I ever spent on a computer peripherial.

wait, i have this keyboard. What's wrong with it?

>chiclet
there are chiclet/low-profile mech kbs, but they all seem to have issues (or not enough reviews to tell). but it's a new market. subsequent batches might have the kinks ironed out.

hope they take off. minimal distance with minimal force would be ideal for shmups. better be ideal for something else too, though, otherwise this tech is doa.

Somebody help me out, I'm pretty retarded when it comes to these things

Bought this to replace my shitty PS/2 keyboard the other day. Its mechanical and doesn't have a billion LEDs or obnoxious branding, which I appreciate. I like the loud clacking sounds the keys make.

>WHY DID I BUY THIS

Because you have patrician taste. The G Pro is arguably the best keyboard on the market. I use it with a G602 mouse. Why is this combo the patrician choice? Because maximum comfort and maximum customization. I can reprogram every key and button to any command or macro. I can make any key a unique LED color as well as turn off the LED of any key. And I can do all of those things for a per-game or per-program basis.

Okay, so I read most of the comments in this thread and I'm still left with the same thing, wondering if I should get a mechanical keyboard. Contrary to the general consensus, I would like to get one that doesn't have the num pad. I have a generic $10 keyboard and I bought a non-mechanical gaming keyboard, I ended up not liking how bright the LEDs were and how sick and bulky and high the keys felt. So I ended up returning it and using my old keyboard and I liked it much better.

for me it's G513

I also really want this. When razer made their Deathstalker I was really hyped because I was hoping for a low profile chicklet keyboard with the performance of one of their mechanical keyboards.
Oh jesus was I wrong.
This keyboard has been my albatross for years now. The build quality is fine, surprisingly enough, but everything else about the keyboard is pure garbage. The keys are mushy, the thing only has three lighting zones, the OTF macro button is confusing and only works sometimes, and the keys jiggle like crazy.
Razer has always been overpriced but this was just a massive insult. This is literally a worse keyboard than the apple stock magic keyboard.

What's worse is that it won't fucking die. I want a new desktop keyboard but I can't justify it when I technically have a functional one. This keyboard is still working like 7 years later and I just want it to fucking die so I can throw it in the trash and get a new one.

I have had the logitech mouse, keyboard, and headset since I got my pc. The headset is pretty bad but it was 100 and got it for like 5 through amazon credit saved up on cyber monday so worth, keyboard isn't bad for the most part but I have the one with a number pad on it, mouse is pretty good too. Headset is truly dogshit though, what is a god tier headset?

Tried my cousin's a few times. Didn't feel any difference except for loud clicking noises. To each its own, I hate unnecesary lights

i'm really sick of console garbage games
games with actual keyboard support when?

My friend has a mech keyboard and when I try it, it feels okay, maybe I was too accustomed to membrane

all "gaming headsets" are shit; get a decent pair of headphones and a standalone mic

Personal taste then, i can never go back after trying brown switch

>no numpad
Seriously, why? The only keyboards that shouldn't have a number pad are media and couch keyboards, where they're replaced with a trackpad instead.

Really pisses me off because it is the perfect design for my needs.

I have both keyboard and mouse from G series. I don't have any problems with keyboard but this piece of shit started double clicking randomly and it's driving me mad. It's fucking sad, because it's aesthetic as fuck but discontinued and now I can't get a new replacement easily.

And required AMD you retard.
Now Nvidia users can use Freesync though.
Gsync was still far superior to Freesync in every way. Since each module was physical they had to be approved by Nvidia (I mean they were made by them) and had a SET standard unlike freesync displays where the ranges vary and can have issues.

6 years in and I’ve never regretted my purchase once. As a matter of fact, this is the last artifact from a time before marriage/kids that I have.

Don't get anything but red or black switches if you ever plan on gaming.

Any non-linear switch is bad for gaming, period. Just because you bought one and feel buyer's remorse doesn't mean you have to trick someone else into buying a non-linear switch.

Less space between your mouse and keyboard. Don't have to move arm as far, more comfortable arm positioning for gaming.

Infinitely better than a numpad that I would never use.

10keyless are cheaper now but even if they weren't I would still buy them.

Tree of Savior?!? I thought I was the only one

What games do you play that can't handle ghosting after 2-3 keys?
The most "intensive" games I play from this perspective are FPS games where strafe jumping is a thing, and not even there do I run into problems.

A good mechanical will last a LONG time and retain its consistency, a membrane under vidya conditions will result in worn out wasd that makes typing those letters a chore. On the other hand for regular typing you'll likely wear down a membrane keyboard evenly. Though mechanical is still superior.

Reminder that keyboards are highly customizable devices and taste is subjective. Always use whatever switches and layouts you like and don't listen to anyone who tells you you're wrong.
