Has anyone tried this mechanical KB?

Go to solution Solved by ForsakenLive,

tbh it looks like a great keyboard. Too bad it doesn't have USB 3.0, but it's still amazing for less than $70

The Backlit Macro Mechanical Gaming Keyboard. I saw it on sale at monoprice. Link provided below. Is it a worthwhile keyboard? If anything it looks like an amazing deal considering it's normally over $200. I'm currently using the CM Devestator bundle keyboard. It's a cheap $30 membrane keyboard. I like it, but now I want to try out mechanical.

How much of a difference would it make if it was usb 3.0? Would that mean faster response time?

I'm talking about USB hub that comes built in near the number pad, the cable the keyboard uses for connection doesn't affect response time or other stuff in any way.

as far as I know USB 3.0 does not give better response time.
