Filco for Gaming?

[iM8Pizza]

So... Hi guys, i'm new here (nobody cares) fine.

alright so, i'm thinking to get a Filco Ninja Majestouch Fullsize for my gaming setup (my current keyboard is OLD), and is it really good for gaming and worth the price? will it last long? or should i get another mechanical keyboard for that purpose on that price? time to find out from you guys.

please notice me senpai (that's lame).

No specific keyboard is "really good" for gaming unless you're asking yourself; your idea and experience of a perfect keyboard is totally independent on a per-person basis. My ideal keyboard could be a 60%, while yours is a 100%. That said, it should be fine.

Personally I use the G710+, NOT because Linus does either lol. But I am a Logitech fan for all their gear. I have the whole G series for Keyboard/Mouse/Headset combo.

 

But as mentioned, you may not like the keys the same as the next person. The best is to get a small list of contenders and then either go to store or watch a lot of reviews and see what you think matters in a keyboard for yourself.

You can't really label a keyboard a gaming keyboard. The term gaming is just a marketing ploy to lure people into buying more stuff. Sure macros and such can be nice for gaming, they are also nice for productivity. As for a filco keyboard, they make great quality boards. It will last you  a very long time as long as you dont throw your keyboards across the room or anything like that.

I don't know what to recommend you for a mechanical keyboard since you didn't specify what you want. Also, what key switches do you want? Do you know how each one is different? Getting the wrong key switch could totally change how you like your keyboard or not Also, gaming labled doesn't matter as long as it is mechanical since they technically preform better because of how they act and are actuated but some people may feel different if they some reason prefer membrane keyboards. Try to stay away for Kailh and Razer switches since they usually are not as consistent with each key as of feel when you press each one down while Cherry is basically is like 99% perfect with how each key preforms how it is supposed to.

 

But, the Filco you mentioned is great although it might have a higher price. If you can afford it no problem and you feel like it won't put a whole in your wallet, then it is one of the best options. Great pick though.

Filco is up there for the best keyboard build quality. Filco is most definitely a safe bet. Get whatever switches you like. Research using the link in my sig first.

I don't really know which one i'd pick, but i probably will go with the Black or the Brown switches. Since i want the "tak-tak-tak", i probably would go with the Brown or.... maybe other switches? I would mostly use it for gaming and NOT JUST THAT! I'm not the only one using it, my dad also, So..i also looking for comfort as well

When I hear 'gaming keyboard' I just think of MX-reds or some other linear switch.

That and gimmicky tat.
