hey all,

 

so, i built my friend a PC and i was going to sell him a razer keyboard (i think it's called ulimate window or some bs like that) and i was going to sell him this and upgrade  my keyboard

 

So, i see 3 options,

Corsair K70

Corsair Strafe

Logitech 910

 

I know most people pick the K70,

 

but i love the macros on the logitech not that you can't do that on corsair but it's nice. The strafe has mx silent switches that i'm not too sure about. And well the k70 is just nice but on the higher end of the prices of the 3

 

Speaking of prices, the logitech and strafe are on sell for $120 and $99 respectively. 

 

So i guess i need help which deciding on

I'd get the Strafe, but with Blue switches (you may be able to get brown as well...).

I have a Corsair Strafe with brown switches and some cheap o-rings. I really like this keyboard and would definitely recommend it. It has a plastic shell with a steel plate under the keys so it's very solid. It doesn't have dedicated media keys they are combined with the F5-F12 keys. But unlike the the K70 or the 910 the strafe has a USB pass through that can be handy for plugging in your mouse, flash drive, phone, or whatever, It's nice if your tower is out of reach when sitting or just to help keep your desk tidy.
