Keyboard advise?

I have this for my laptop. I love it. (I have a higher tier Corsair on my gaming pc.)

First and foremost, I think you want to decide what form factor you want with your keyboard. Generally speaking, there are around 4 main sizes which are the full layout or 100%, ten-key-less (TKL) or 80%, 75% and 60%. There are more niche sizes however most brands support those 4 sizes.

There are a lot of good keyboards for each and every size, each with their own cool and unique features. While the popular brands (Razer, Logitech, Corsair, HyperX, etc.) have lots of good keyboards, I would also take a look at the more customizable ones such as those from brands like Glorious, Keychron, and Ducky. The customizable ones also tend to be cheaper and offer pretty much the same performance as those from well-known brands. The only catch is that more often than not, you're actually just getting a keyboard so don't expect any fancy accessories or buttons in your keyboard.

I haven't really used a lot of keyboards throughout my life. In fact, I've only had two - a Razer Blackwidow Chroma which I bought all the way back in 2015 (it's outdated so I won't bother recommending it), and a Corsair K95 RGB Platinum. The K95 is a pretty great keyboard in my opinion, although rather pricey. The only issue I have with it is that for some reason, the spacebar key easily gets detached. Although, this just might be my keyboard being faulty.

 

Just to add onto what has been said, you might also want to look into the types of keys you like. Personally, I prefer a flatter key compared to the chunky big keys you see on most mechanical keyboards. I've recently upgraded from my old Razer Deathstalker Chroma to a Logitech g915 (flatter keys) which I found to be great for what I need. Just remember you're probably gonna have the keyboard for quite a few years, so make sure to pick something that works well for you.

 

People care so goddamn much about their RGB mechanical keyboards with their hundred different switch types, yet most people on /r/mechanicalkeyboards type less than 90 WPM... literally half my speed (no flex)



I don't think mechanical keyboards make any difference to how accurate or fast you can type. If anything, certain switches like MX Blues can make it harder due to their high release point. It does feel more comfortable though

Personally I use CM Storm QuickFire XT with Brown switches (no longer being sold)

 

What kind of steroids do you take to reach such typing speeds lol

 

Jokes on you I have a laptop keyboard lets go

 

It's not hard.
