Jeeesus all those colors... but i like my Razer Chroma https://cdn1.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/iu.....n-Chroma.0.jpg

Yeah I was actually looking at that one at best buy when I got this one. I didn't know if I really wanted the number pad or not. I went with this one due to the keys being much more quiet.

Its a lot of money for the Black Widow, but that Cosair is pretty damn nice too and cheaper

well at best buy it was 130 for the tournement edition of the blackwidow chroma. this one was 120. Another thing that helped me choose was that this one came with MOBA/FPS keycaps, and a wrist rest.

Wrist rest are nice -w-

Got this sturdy one here:

Mechanical keyboards for the first time = amazing experience, aren't they?

Well I am enjoying it, although the staired steps are going to take some getting used to, its making my fingers ache a little bit and I've only had it for an hour or so xD

What switch color did ya get?

They determine actuation length, responsiveness, and noisiness as shown in this vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OfUAQiIOWQ

They are the new Cherry MX-Silent switches. Same actuation force and distance as MX-reds, just without all the noise.

Huh, interesting! Must be great to type without disturbing folks around you.
Funny thing about this V80: Normally $150, I was in a MassDrop for a Cooler Master Quickfire TK, but a bunch of delays and timing (when there was a freight strike) had MassDrop send this one over instead.

Not too shabby, $80 KB to a $150. The wait was extremely long but worth it, I suppose. X)

Its mainly my right pinky that is getting tired. It doesn't like the spacing for the shift key xD

Hopefully that goes away over time though x.x

Takes a bit of time to break in, maybe. X)

One can only hope. Though that isn't the only thing that needs to be broken in with this mare. *wink wink nudge nudge* hehe. xD

Hahah, I see what you did there.

Fairly popular one. I like the coolermaster mechanical ones as well.
