I was at Fry's today looking for LED strips because Microcenter didn't have them and I went by the keyboard isle. I've been looking for cherry blue switches and there was a thermaltake poseidon z on sale for $60 so I got it. It was on sale and you can always return it so yeah. Anyway, is this a decent keyboard? I know it's not high end like ducky or anything but is it ok I hope?

Google a product, get lots of info.

According to Google it's Kailh switches.

Alright, I just plugged it in. It's pretty nice. I have to get used to typing more on the left of the keyboard because my old one has function keys on left as well. The brightness levels tho. Level 1 is blinding. Level 4, I might need sunglasses.

Nope. Google is nice.

The normal poseidon uses cherry switches. The poseidon Z uses kailh.
