as you can see i just change my post... here is my problem? i have an HP envy 15 late 2011 with Intel switchable graphics to amd radeon 1g.. How can i use it to its maximum performance?

[daixn]

DUCKY!!!!!!!

[Purezz]

I've the Blackwidow, had it for about 1.5 years now and i'm soo happy with it. The feel of a mechanical keyboard of this caliber is just something else.. I don't know anything about the others, but I'm just talking from personal expirience.

P.S. It's kind of loud, so if that's a problem it might bother you. You get used to it very quickly however.

@daixn is it good??

@purezz what kind of blackwidow are you using?

[ChuChuChu]

Im using Lycosa and its pretty good IMO.

[ngazirrrrrrrrrrrrr]

Don't buy keyboards from companies that don't support e-sports like Coolermaster. You have to decide what you want.

Do you want a mechanical keyboard or a replaceable keyboard. If mechanical, are you going to need to type words or just press a key repeatedly really fast. If replaceable, do you want a pretty one or ugly one.

SS 6gv2 RED SWITCH or 7G, support e-sports all the way!

go mechanical bro

Razer
Duckyshine
Steelseries
coolermaster is fine!!

wtf ngazi

[anN-]

Stay away from Razer, mechanical keyboards are expensive, but you can get 1 for $70 from CoolerMaster, I just don't like the branding on the Rapid Quick Fire

Using lycosa, but when I pressed the blackwidow in the shop, I try finding some excuse to change my keyboard.

@ngazi so which of the following brands that support esports is reliable??

[ngazirrrrrrrrrrrrr]

If you want mechanical they should all be fine. They probably have the same company making their keyboards anyway. Although I prefer one with standard layout, not like the Blackwidow. If you want a replaceable keyboard, they are all the same since you will replace it anyway.

Keep in mind. Brand new there's nothing wrong with a replaceable keyboard for most people. But don't use it too long. Don't get an expensive one if you aren't going to be willing to replace it.

A mechanical keyboard is too expensive to replace. For normal people. And you should never need to replace it unless it was defective. If you don't take care of it though, it's going to be one sad keyboard.

So again. The first decision is do you go mechanical or replaceable.

i should go for mechanical? what do you suggest?

[ngazirrrrrrrrrrrrr]

If you are going to keep it clean and you expect to use it forever then sure go mechanical. If you are afraid something might happen to it like a spill then don't.

[69y]

yup use it forvever.. so what brand do you suggest?

[JY]

btw im using razer blackwidow. overall it is a good keyboard BUT damn freaking heavy.

oh ya, if you wanna have a quiet keyboard, stay away from the normal blackwidow. Mine sound like a typewriter on steriod. =)

[ngazirrrrrrrrrrrrr]

Yeah mechanical is not about brands but the type of key it has. Pretty much if you are buying from a gaming company they are using Cherry keys. So the types are color coded.

Blue is typewriter. Avoid it.

Black and red are "linear" meaning they are good for holding down and spamming like in FPS. Black has more resistance.

Brown is not linear so you feel the key when you use it. It is better for typing but it sucks for spamming.

Thank you everyone for your kind response

[ngazirrrrrrrrrrrrr]

A laptop? Just install the drivers they give you and set to performance mode. That's all you can do. Safely.
