Posted August 16, 2015 I was curious what kinds of keyboards you guys had, as generally the consensus is that mech keyboards are just the way to go- yet expensive. If you have a mech board what switches does it use? If you don't have a mech board why/ what do you use? E.G. I personally am using a gateway kb-2961 (chicony model) <--this one. I have very little money and am unable to buy a mech keyboard and also picked this one up for 10 cents. It's a rubber dome keyboard, but check it out it still is rather satisfying and responsive. Tbh it's a rubber dome knock off of the model M I feel. Added poll, really interested in seeing what you guys use. The Vinyl Decal guy.
