Whats the best gaming keyboard with a LCD (or what ever else) screen and also works as a usb hub. It does not have to be mechanical but mechanical is prefered.

May i ask, do you really think while gaming you would want to look down at a tiny LCD on your keyboard to read a piece of info you can look at the screen for? seems so gimmicky to me. Anyways check out the logitech G510 or the G19

I personally love the Corsair K90. I have one and I can say that it is an absolute beast.

Yea well its more for "because I can" than anything

 

I had the G15 when it was first released. And, the first few days in WoW [was still playing at that time] I actually liked the screen showing me my stats and so on. After about day 3, you don't look at it anymore, it's more of a gimmick than anything usefull.

 

If you want high quality keyboards check for:

Ducky

Cooler Master Storm

FIlco

Das Keyboard

WASD

 

They might not look "uber pwnzor" but those are actually the best keyboards you can get your hands on. Mechanical, choice of switches, and close to indestructible [even at nerdrage]

Frost upon these cigarettes.... lipstick on the window pane...

The most well rounded board I've used, the CoolerMaster Quickfire TK MX Brown.  If I had to pick one and only one board to use, that would be it.  However, if the Corsair K70 MX Brown was available right this second, I might say that one.

^^ What he said! ;)  I have KB's from three of the five listed, and they're all of excellent build and quality. I have the CM Storm, a Trigger Cherry Red and a Quick fire TK Cherry Blue, a Filco MJ2 Ninja Cherry Brown, and three Duckys - two DS II (a hybrid and a Blue) and a G2 Pro Cherry Black TKL model......wouldn't trade any of them for a Razer, no freaking way! I also have another Trigger Cherry Green on the way, as well as an oldie, the Model M with buckling spring.
