Vortex Pok3r Giveaway sponsored by Massdrop

I like different keyboards when doing different things, when i play games i need every key, especially with gta v out now using the number pad, but when i am just working at my desk i use a 60% keyboard attached to my laptop, since i cannot stand to use the one that is so horrid and strange to the touch, ever since i went mechanical, when doing extended typing.

I preffer a full sized keyboard because it makes my work (which has a lot of numbers involved) much easier. If you cant fit a full sized keyboard on your desk maybe you should get a new one. lol

I use a tenkeyless and love how compact it is. I've never used a 60% keyboard before but I'm very curious as to how effective it can be in a gaming situation.

I prefer a full sized keyboard because it has additional keys for gaming when you need them (if you ever gonna need them)

Terve!
I am happy with full size Keyboards, especially if they have macros. I have adequate space for something like a G19 (from Logitec).

The reason is pretty simple: I like having all the keys I can use to do stuff and since I am using the num pad and the "home, end and so on" segment of the keyboard I, well, like to have them.

Sayonara!

Thanks for doing this giveaway

 

I like full sized keyboards more because it is more comfortable for me than an small keyboard

Yay for giveaways!

 

I only ever use the numerical keyboard when typing, can't use the regular ones. I'm willing to drop the mouse just so that I can type a few numbers. I guess that keyboard is going to be an excellent time to learn to abandon the numerical one.....

I love 104 key layouts the numpad is always nice to have but I need a good 60% or TKL for traveling cause 104 is just too much

My favourite keyboard size is definitely 75%. I've personally got a Noppoo Choc Mini and I absolutely love it!

They are about as small as a 60%, but still have all the functionality of a TKL.

my favourite is the full sized keyboards.... ive never really tried any other types so this is why. but if i had the choice of my current keyboard (Perixx PX-1100) or a Cherry MX Mechanical keyboard, including a numpad or not, id go for a Cherry MX keyboard. the feel of the mechanical keyboard and the keys are immensely impressive.

 

while im at it, thank you to the people who supply all these giveaways, whether i win them or not!

60% for me. Got a poker II a while back and have never regretted the decision. 

I have so much desk space and taking my keyboard with me has never been easier.

i love tenkeyless keyboard designs because of their compact but still functional nature. i like the design of the cooler master quickfire tk becuase of their creative implementation of the number pad.

My favorite keyboard size would be tenkeyless.

I don't have that much space on my desk so it fits just fine and I never use the number pad.

I actually like the pseudo-tenkeyless keyboard I have, the K360 Wireless keyboard from Logitech. The size is the same as a tenkeyless or a laptop keyboard (I'm using it to replace my laptop's dead onboard keyboard), but the size is great, and you get the numpad in place of the pgup/pgdn/ins/del keys, which are moved to the top of the keyboard. I would love to see more tenkeyless-sized mechanical keyboards use this exact layout, although I doubt anyone else does.

 

Edit I do miss my Poseidon Z from Thermaltake. I wish I knew how to resolder the usb connection from the cable to the pcb...

I currently have a full sized QPAD MK-80. While I don't find myself using the numpad often (Only when typing in really long codes, for example license codes), it has never really bothered me. Recently I changed my desk, and now there isn't much space for such a big Keyboard. I realized having a 60% Keyboard would make a lot more sense...

Currently using a 104-key layout keyboard, I feel there is too much spaced being left unutilized though so having my mouse closer to the center which the 60% layout allows seems perfect to me!

Although I am using a full size keyboard, I would prefer 10-keyless because I have too little space for the mouse. It's okay for the most part, but sometimes it bothers me that I have to lift my mouse and move the mouse.

My favorite is tenkeyless because I don't use the number pad. Having it, in my opinion is a waste of space on my small desk.

Ideally I would have a full size keyboard with the numpad moved to the left and the numpad can also become macro keys on my desk and a 60% keyboard for anything else.

i would really like to try out a 60% keyboard, i am thinking of a setup where there is a 10 key-less or 60% keyboard, my mouse and then a small numpad since it comes useful some times.

I have been using giant keyboards for quite a while.  I have a  Razer Black Widow Stealth as my main desktop rig and a Razer Lycosa for my XB1 keyboard/mouse setup.  Using a Logitech G11 with my laptop these days and kinda hate how big it is for my laptop setup and have been eyeballing a 60% board for a while and think the Pok3r may be the one.  Price aint bad but winning would be nice of course!
