Need suggestions on buying a gaming mechanical keyboard! [with GA trainzzz]

Another thing, give me an awesome synonym or replacement word for bump

Thrust.

Best of all, it works as a replacement for bump and stab!

I have the G.Skill KM780 RGB. I don't recommend it. I bought it because of the features (USB passthrough, Audio passthrough, media controls, wrist wrest, 6 ft cable, Macro keys), but the software is crazy buggy and the keyboard makes an audible buzzing sound when the RGB lighting is active. Loud buzzing also emits from any speaker or headphone connected to the audio out jack on the keyboard.

I recommend Corsair or Das Keyboard.

Knock!
Give advice on the keyboard I cannot, because I have the cheap A4Tech-keyboard with illumination...

Just wondering, is that necessary ?

I mean, probably a mechanical keyboard is better than a random 10/20€ keyboard,
but... is better enough to justify the price difference ? (~ +1000%)

I know nothing about keyboards but I recommend a word karamba as a new bump.

I'm using keyboard bought in 1992, rubber dome afaik. Haven't found anything even remotely comfortable. But it was selected from the batch of over 20 by hand-testing. And this is what you should do too: test it yourself. Keyboard, mices and displays are like shoes. If they don't fit, everything else is irrelevant )

K70 Brown.

Bump!

Bump and really i cant help you cause i work/play on a laptop! :D I hope you will find something good! :D

If you want quality, go Ducky. Simple looks, no useless keys, a lot of different switches to choose from. Sure, they are quite expensive, but for a reason. Still rockin' my Shine 2 with Cherry MX Brown -switches, white leds. Extremely satisfied.

The brand is more or less inconsequential, since good-quality mechanical keyboards in reality are the exact same: all of them use the exact same keys made by Cherry. So the only question is usually the button layout (for example, it seems to be nearly impossible to find a mechanical nowadays with a real Enter button, a full two-row one), wrist rest shape (or even existence of), and if you need them, how many USD/audio jack slots it has (although those have a point only if your PC is far away/doesn't have USB slots left in the front).

Since with things like Razer and Steelseries, literally half of the money is spent on buying a brand name (because, as I said, all of them are actually the same keyboard), your real question is to choose what kind of Cherry MX buttons do you need? YOu can use these to choose:

Once you choose the switch type, all you need to do is lok for any mechanical keyboard that has these and has the layout/features you are comfortable with. As long as they use these switches, their quality will be the same, regardless of brand.
An advice: be careful though. Black switches are considered "hard" and I had people not believing it. They are great for games, but if you type on it, a post like this one would be enough to make your fingers hurt from the force required to press these many keys this many times. On the other hand, some people find Red/Brown so light that they press several buttons accidentally without realising it (especially on Red, which gives zero feedback on button press). If you can find an actual store that sells mechanicals, try to try those before buying/ordering one.

So... my awesome word for bump is:

KOWABUNGA.

(Thanks!)

I don't really know much about keyboards so I can't give you any technical info about why it's better or which switches are the best for which games etc, I'll only talk about my experience with the 2 Logitech keyboards I'm currently using.

My main setup has mechanical Logitech G710+. I think it uses Cherry MX Brown switches. I can only tell you that I'm simply in love with this keyboard. It was expensive as hell but it's the best keyboard I've used in my life. Keys are extremely sensitive; typing and gaming on that keyboard are very smooth.

The secondary setup I'm using while I'm away from my main setup for 4 months every year has a budget option from the same company: Logitech G103, this isn't mechanical. I'm currently typing this message from G103 and I already took half of the typing time only to edit the constant mistakes because buttons get stuck quite frequently after only one month of use. All buttons too; D, M, Space, A you name it. It takes considerable amount of power to make the commands register in the game or while typing a simple message.

I have a Logitech G15 refresh which is probably 10 years old now.
Don't see the need for a mechanical keyboard for me. Expensive, louder.
Old Microsoft Internet Keyboards (15 years old?) don't want to die either ;)

Bop :)
Since we're drifting away from bumps

I recently bought the Logitech G910 orion spark.. it's my first mechanical keyboard and I'm really satisfied with it

Burp :)

Le Bump.
