Which Keyboard?

[Guest lilbman]

I am trying to decide on which keyboard to buy and I have it down to a refurbished Corsair K70 LUX RGB with MX Browns and the Logitech G610 Orion Brown.  I don't mind the color difference(RGB would be preferred but white would be okay) but which would be better for typing and gaming and which is smaller?

 

Basically, which is better?

have a G910 myself, typing isn't satisfying (feels like a chinese copy of MX reds to me honestly) but gaming is really good. 

mx brown =/= romer-g

orion brown

 

i dont know shit about g610, i assumed that orion brown would mean that it would use romer g or something like that, i think only the 710? has mx switches.

The Orion Brown uses MX Browns.

I heard that it had problems with the lighting or something, or was that the old version?

Lol, I have the second gen one, its fine.  There are better implemented RGB lights on the new ones though (like you are getting)

Okay.  Would buying a refurbished one be fine?  I really want one but I don't want to pay the money for a brand new one.

I bought mine used, something like 2 years of use on it when I got it and it is a champ.  The build quality is so good I think the 50 million stroke switches will give out before the keyboard

The keyboard isn't for me  if it was for me I'd pay full price.  I'm not getting another board soon, my K95 with MX Browns came in last week and my son wanted one like it
