Hey guys, my mum is getting me a late Christmas present in january and she told me to decide since she always gets me terrible stuff... I've been thinking of 2 items to get but I can only get 1, a headphone or a mechanical keyboard. I'm currently using my Razer Kraken and a shitty laptop keyboard from my ASUS G75VX. I've been leaning towards a mechanical keyboard since the laptop keyboard is so damn narrow and difficult to touch type so I could only 2 finger type it... so which should I get?

ASUS ROG G75VX

 

Intel i7-3630QM 2.4GHz/3.4GHz Turbo | Nvidia GeForce 670MX 3GB OCed to 736MHz | 750GB HDD | Windows 8.1 | 24 GB 1600MHz RAM | Razer Goliathus Medium | Logitech G400s | Razer Kraken/ JBL J22 | Corsair Vengeance K70 Cherry MX blue

Go for the keyboard. I recommend mx blues. I have the Corsair k70 with blues and have nothing but good things to say.  Also that laptop is not "shitty" it is actually very good. The 670M is about the same as the 760M and the 3630QM is a full mobile I7 cpu with 4 cores and 8 threads. The 670M is able to play crisis 3 and medium on that laptop.

I also think so, I'm actually thinking of the CM Storm Quickfire because of the backlight and the fonts of the keyboard. Also, its pretty small as I have some space constraints especially since school is starting and I need space for homework..

Keyboard,go to a store with her though and try out all the switches before you choose one.

Unfortunately I can't... there isn't any where I live....

buy a CM Storm QuickFire TK MX (RED) if you want something powerfull but simple, if you want something more complex buy a keyboard with  macros like a razer blackwidow

Quickfire yes, reds no...

tell me some options you have in mind.

I've been thinking of browns since they are not very loud like blues

Use Amazons good return policies buy 2 or 3 or more keyboards you'll think you'll like and return the ones you don't like.

There's not amazon in Singapore. Shipping takes like 15 days
