Stupid Keyboard

So my laptop's keyboard starts skipping key presses when I am typing really fast. I have a Lenovo Yoga 730 13". Everywhere I have looked showed me that I am the only one with this problem. Any fix ideas?

 

Edit: It's kinda like if I type "alphabet" really fast it would show up as "alhabt" and it also is bad scene I play fast paced games causing It not to register a key.

You could try "typing" while on this website http://blog.seethis.link/scan-rate-estimator/

My keyboard rates at roughly 40-150ms with some spikes up to 500ms.

probably due to slow response and not having multi-key rollover. I'm not sure if you're typing speed is so high that the keyboard isn't meant to take that. It's unlikely for Lenovo to accept this RMA reason though, since they will usually respond by saying 'It's fine by us'.

I had kinda the same experience, though some were down under 10ms.

Its not JUST typing, for example if I am playing a fast paced game, not every key will be registered.

How many keys are you pressing at the same time?

 

I gave up on using my Model M as a daily driver because it could only handle 3 keys at the same time.

multi key rollover is specifically used in games.

Around 4 keys

You could try something like keyboardtester.com (I can't check right now whether it supports rollover) or downloading a similar program and checking how many keys register at the same time.
