corsair k65 vs steelseries 6gv2

[Miksnake]

so a few days back my keyboard stopped working. i've narrowed the list down to these two keyboard, but i can't decide which keyboard i should choose, i like the looks of both of them, however i've heard the 6gv2 key prints fades pretty quickly. and for the switches i don't have a preference, i've tried the mx black and didn't find these tough to use.

Depends on whether you need  the extra space the k65 will give you , otherwise either would be fine , corsair keyboards are built like tanks and so are the 6gv2.

K65, cuz if you loose at a lan you can still beat your enemy with it.

Really enjoying my 6Gv2. Sure its mostly plastic but it is pretty solid. (and heavy. Probably weighs more than my old k95)

I write novels for fun so i write quite a lot and i haven't noticed any fading on my keycaps on my 6Gv2.

But after a year they might fade since the letter is just printed on the surface.

 

The problem with the k65 which is similar to the k95 i had earlier with the raised keys is that you see all the dust underneath the keycaps.

But other than that it is pretty nice.

 

For me personally the k65 isn't even an option though. No numpad = no buy
