Mechanical Keyboard and Headphone

[DriZyo]

In my list now is Corsair K70 Red Switches Mechanical Keyboard and HyperX Cloud II. I play fps game and adventure game. Is this good for connecting with people and compatible typing? I need your suggestion if have other brand.

I would recommend trying the switches before you buy. I bought a mech keyboard a couple of days ago. Went into the shop fairly sold on getting strafe with Cherry reds, but couldn't stand them IRL. Ended up getting a logitech g610 with cherry browns.

Personally I love the Red switches on the k70 but it is, of course, personal preference.

I second try them first thing. Possibly with multiple different switched in row to compare. My selection was between Cherry brown and black mainly, some thoughts on reds too. I went for brown after testing multiple times with switch kit, shop samples and lastly close to normal writing angle at tech convention. Noise wasn't that pleasent coming from membrane. But some rubber o-rings and I'm 2 years in with this Ducky Shine 3 TKL.

There is no problem here.

I literally meant what I typed. I'm not sure what you meant with that specific sentence since it's oddly worded. Asking for clarification.

Its decent for a gaming headset but if u want a good microphone quality the sennheiser pc 373D is the way to go or u can buy separate modmic 4 but it will cost around $60-70 for the microphone alone.

There is no quite mechanical keyboard even those Mx silent arent actually quite.

Red is linear keys,brown are tactile non clicky both of em is pretty similar in terms of quietness.

Blue is the loudest its tactile and clicky switch.

But u can add rubber O Ring to make it more quieter.

as for the typing experience RED are sucks for typing imo

$200 for a crappy headset?

You sure?

I went from Cherry Reds which are technically silent if you don't bottom out but I was never able to get used to them and always bottomed out my keys. Recently I switched to Romer-G switches on a Logitech G-Pro and they are a lot quieter only because they have a bump in the keys actuation point so it's very easy to type on without bottoming out the keys. If you don't want Romer-G switches the Cherry Browns give a very similar experience to the Romer-G's.

 

Food for thought.

Well u know..its gaming peripherals and sennheiser so..

 

What? So it's automatically good cause it's from a reputable brand? Even if you could get more for the price.

The short answer is yes, they are good.  Long answer , it depends.

 

I have the k70 with cherry mx speed and the hyperX cloud II. First of all, the cherry switches are very sensitive, it takes a while to get used to, but for gaming and typing they are pretty good (try different switches if you can or buy one of these). As for the headset, it is very comfortable, has decent audio and mic. However, it lacks some "punch" even with the base turned up. Unless you are an audiophile, I would suggest sticking to regular gaming headsets.

the mic is removable and it is "good enough" for gaming, do not expect crystal clear audio but I guess you could tweak the input.

As for keyboards I only have experience with logitech and corsair. Some people suggest that razer mechanical  keyboards are lower quality. Switches are the same across brands, meaning, a cherry mx red will feel the same in a corsair keyboard, logitech, ducky, etc. You should consider other features such as media keys, macro keys, rgb, etc. before making a purchase.

Well, that so nice! i love corsair and logitech brand. But now i'm confused to choice one of this two brand. Corsair have good quality and logitech too but corsair look more pretty. So your opinion K70 or G710+ ?

[xGGAx]

like I said, consider other features and design. Corsair keyboards have better lighting overall. Go with the k70, better design, software and  has a metal frame.
