Posted June 21, 2017 Hi there, My G710+ is due for an replacement. I have no idea which keyboards are good today, so I hope you can help me out. Heres what I would like: Mechanical RGB Macro keys Separate volume adjustment (prefer a scrollwheel like on the Corsair Ks and G710+) Numpad Got any suggestions? Fractal Define R5 - i7-5820K - Noctua DH-D15S - GLH GTX 1070 - Strix X99 Gaming - HyperX Fury 2400MHz 16GB - EVGA SuperNOVA 650 G2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted June 21, 2017 I don't have a suggestion, but i do have a recommendation. Do NOT, i repeat, NOT, get a razer keyboard. DON'T get one of them. Everything else is fine imo. I even have a cheap-ass chinese knock-off for 27 bucks (no numpad, no macro's, fake MX blues but it does have LED's) and tbh it's better than razer crap. I tried a blackwidow once with "razer green" switches, there were complete crap, just awful. If you want my attention, quote meh!

It has PBT keycaps, much better than usual abs shit. Or CM masterkeys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next keyboard I buy (if the K70 dies) will likely be a K95 plat. Want to custom loop? Ask me more if you are curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrong, shine 6 has volume control buttons and it is fully programmable, even without any software. CM can be also programmed via it's software. Yes, no multimedia keys on that, but there is an fn-layer, so not a big deal. I can't recommend k95 because I didn't use one. Also I've heard that rgb effects are not available without software running for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can change static colors permanently on it but not special effects. Want to custom loop? Ask me more if you are curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all person opinion imo, i had razer keyboard for almost a year and i was able to resell it at same price i got it. It actually not that bad. I enjoy the switch, some of my friend also did, some not. Personally, why do people still have RGB unless your color scheme is not one of standard colors. Ducky, is good for decent price and quality standard backlit keyboard. Magical Pineapples
