K70 RGB vs. Razer Blackwidow Chroma(Buying in 12hrs HELP!)

[EarlyGab]

Im buying one in 12 hrs! Please help which one to pick!

 

Im leaning towards the K70 RGB because:

-The effects that you can do with it.

-The build quality. (Metal)

-Dedicated media keys + the volume wheel 

-Its a Cherry MX.

-Amazing wrist rest.

-New LED mounting

(I have a K95 its a nice keyboard but i already have 8 dead leds on it. around 2months it had 8dead leds already.)

 

Razer Blackwidow Chroma:

-I have a razer mouse + headphone. if i get this it will make my rig all match.

-The simplicity of the razer.

-The macro keys

-Brighter LEDS

-Easy to program

-Im kind of scared buying this because of the way the LEDs are mounted like in the K95 i have.

-It NOT cherry MX. its china made switches

 

Please notify me of any news of dead leds on both I need to know its killing me

 

(Iv only seen dead leds on k70 rgb but it was firmware updates but was fixed cause of that)

Here in the Philippines both K70 RGB and BW Chroma has the exactly the same price(7950php). (Around $185)

k70 because razer no longer does cherry.

 

but i will give razer credit there back light is much brighter and consistent around the keys

No matter how i want to do that its hard for me to ship it back. The Philippines suck at this kind of stuff.

I know right! But im more likely going to test out both keyboards in the store just for the feel test. but i think cherry will win in my book

youre ordering or picking it up in store? if youre going to the store then just bring it back and get a refund/new kb if it doesnt work

k70, even sell the razer stuff and get better ones. 

I had a k70 and now I am waiting for my k95 mx blue rgb.

But I like razer stuff I love my naga epic and kraken 7.1 but yeah all of the replies so far are all K70 RGB so i guess its the clear winner

 

Thanks for the quick replies everyone!
