buying mechanical keyboard

[nothingzzz]

I'm looking foward to buying a new mechanical keyboard, and i'm cofusing between cm storm rapid-i, ducky shine 3 and corsair k65 RGB.

May i have some advices what to buy?? I havent had any mech keyboard before so i'm not really have much exp in this, but i've tried switches and i prefer brown switch. Thank you.

Ducky Shine 3 for sure. I have one and I absolutely love it!

the rapid-i is great.

but i depends on which switches you prefer.

First of all, welcome to the forums

Good choice on the MX browns BTW (i love my k70 with mx browns)

 

Theyre all very good choices for a keyboard. it all comes down to which features you like and which one has the best looks in your opinion.

My vote would be for the k65 all day (see if you can find one with the old logo. the new corsair logo looks like shit)

 

EDIT: lol.. the first 3 posts recommend the 3 different keyboards

Location and budget would also good information if you're asking for advice.

Both are great choices but since I have the Shine 3 I can definitely recommend it although the K65 RGB looks pretty cool. It's entirely up to you to decide which you want more. The Shine 3 is clean and simple while doing it's job perfectly then the K65 is more fancy with all of the lights. Can't go wrong with either really.

Well, he's given us three keyboards he's looking at, so not really.

Ducky shine 3 is significantly more expensive than the other 2 in the UK and a hell of a lot less convenient to buy.

Ducky all the way.

Depends on what you have to spend. The Ducky keyboards have a few more options with lighting and switches (depending on where you get the keyboard from), though, like the Corsair, they have a premium price tag. 

Even so, I'd go for the Ducky. Their keyboards are some of the best manufactured in the world. Up there with Filco.

I vote Rapid-i if it were money money and the Ducky a close second. K65 RGB (and regular K65) come with Red switches and Red switches only.

Let me guess, 99% will reccommend what they own. For me, the Razer Blackwidow 2013 works just fine.

I would REALLY reccomend you try them out if you can, either in store or at a friends' house, if anyone owns a mech. The very least you should is try out different switches to see what you want.
