What keyboard and mousepad to get?

Right, seen as my crappy Microsoft sidewinder is shite, and well broken, i am looking to get a new decent keyboard, but cant really decide between any. And wanting a new mouse mat, currently have the razer mantis speed, i want it to work well with the MX518, give me your ideas, or tell me what keyboard and mouse mats you own? :)

Parent
How wrong can a person be :D

QuoteWtf is the point of some 100€ keyboard. It doesnt the same shit as every other keyboard :D:D
About this much
Parent
So enlighten me. What does 100€ keyboard do what a regular keyboard cant do :D?
Parent
buy some cheap logitech keyboard (i did, about 20$) they're great and indestructible, mine has 3 years already, my friend bought g15 and after few months it became shit
Parent
four words, mechanical keyboards
Parent
I hate laptop keyboard, they are so shit to use.

you can get a cheap laptop like keyboard also and an expensive mechanical keyboard :D:d

you really have no idea what you are talking about :D
Parent
Where did I praise laptop-like keyboards? And yes, mechanical boards cost more than traditional keyboards and that's for a reason.

And reckon people don't buy keyboards to become better players but to have a more durable and comfortable keyboard.

I know something about things I discuss.
Parent
he's not wrong though, they all punch the same keys as the rest, overpriced fancy shit is overpriced x))))))))
Parent
you wna try mine? it's so good
Parent
Not really ^_^ which have you got now?
havd plenty mechanical, stupid multimedia shit, logitech G15 but they don't last=me throwing them out :P just picky about the distance between the keys around the arrows!

Had to buy new keyboard yday as I ruined my 14yr old one, stupid delete/end/pagedown a bit too high up though :'(
Parent
steelseries 7g
Parent
I might often be wrong, but in this case I am not.

I have seen you play, if you played with 10 € keyboard and 100€ keyboard, you would still be med skilled. Nothing would change.

So tell me, what's the point of your expensive keyboard?
Parent
im didnt buy this keyboard to get better, i bought it ucz its 12x times better than the €15 i had.

and sweet taht u saw me play, cuz i havent in two years, i play starcraft2
Parent
Havent played ET from spring 2009 so it's accurate alright.
Parent
well i didnt had that keyboard by then ^_^
Parent
not really, anti-ghosting and shorter reaction times would be an advantage, right?
Parent
Haha, shorter reaction time on keyboard :D:D 0.01 or 0.05 doesnt make a big difference, does it :D?
Parent
makes a difference of 0.04, but good that you see it as well :)
Parent
in-game it doesnt make a difference :D

i would only pay 100 € for a keyboard when it's really comfortable, but most 5 € are that too, so no need to but a fucking expensive keyboard, it doesnt just make you better in any way.
Parent
seems like you also didnt noticed that I wrote "anti ghosting", but its useless to argue with you anyways.

How you get the Kone + to 450dpi,my one only seems to go up in 100s?Or am I missing something?
Parent

Mechanical keyboard = heaven + puretrak talent
just keep cheating, no need for new mouse and keyboard.
whenever you used a mechanical keyboard once, you do not want to use something else again :D

my setup:
image: 7844106jid
Razer Abyssus mouse, Razer Goliathus Control mousepad & Zowie Celeritas mechanical keyboard

But i would suggest a Steelseries Xai as mouse, and if u are only playing FPS games, maybe a Steelseries 6Gv2 as Keyboard (with Cherry MX blacks)
I would love to have my PC in a room like that, right infront of window and to have that much space would be sick!

Looks nice
Parent
yeah, bought a house recently, so more than enough room ;)
but when the sun comes out i gotta let the window shade down when playing :D
Parent
just looks awsome to chill man.
Parent
this is the view from upstairs:

and the couch + TV (with GSL running :D) upstairs:
http://up.picr.de/7710521bvs.jpg

it has 3 floors + basement, basically my PC and chillout/console/my old TV etc are in 2rd and 3rd floor, while living room, kitchen etc are in 1st floor and basement.
Parent
nice spot for house :o
Parent
wie konntest du stricher dir denn ein haus leisten!
Parent
du hast dir die Frage doch grad selber beantwortet :D
Parent
das schreit nach bildern!
Parent
see above

Parent

Parent
Nice room btw :
Parent
it's not my room, it's my whole house :D
Parent
What do you mean ?

Your room is your whole house, or your house is nice :D ?
Parent
it's just one room within the house :D
Parent
Looks nice :o, Good that you can see the tree's and not only the screen :D
Parent

Parent

Parent
i have a PC connected to my TV ? :D
Parent
ah ok, sounds smart ^_^ I thought its available as on a channel x/
Parent
If I must say care bout keyboard bro. I just use some £6 DELL one. Gaming keyboards I wouldnt say give as much difference as gaming mice. Just get any keyboard and save money belive me paying out on gaming keyboards wont give any difference!

But I got mx518 with the razer sphex AWSOME!
gaming keyboards are useless, best if you play starcraft
Using a DA. And I wouldn't say a good keyboard is wasted money. Why? Because I have a piece of shit keyboard and would kill for a decent one. Get one with flat buttons which requires little force to press imo.
that doesnt make the keyboard expensive or good.

It's jsut another type.

flat like laptops or the regular mechanical ones :d
Parent
Get this one for 1$ http://txmicro.tradenote.net/images/users/000/219/855/products_images/211150.jpg

been using it for like 3 years since my logitech g15 broke down :O and i gotta say that this one is better , even tough its dirty ugly and smells horrible
plz 1$ I payed like £6 for mine and its the exact same with red arrow keys and W,A,S,D :D
Parent

love my qck+ with the MX518 but needs a good scrub after tipping a drink over it so whipped out my old (but brand new :PPp) everglide titan dkt edition which performs rather well!

Parent
dvorak keyboard cuz im hip like that
Raccat Valo + Cyborg R.A.T 7
Using Razer Arctosa (doesn't have good feel on the keys imo), might go for the Steelseries 6Gv2 that Noorgin stated above.

MX518 (might get Ikari Laser), and got 2 old QcKs and one QcK+ in its package (brand new) and got 9HD to be tested.
the g6v2 is nice, but I'm not as pleased with blacks as I thought I would be. if you have the possibility, try brown switches (zowie celeritas)
Parent
Thanks for the tip, I will ask around if some of my mates have one of those.
Parent
Too bad I have enough deathadders in my shelves waiting so cba to buy another one even though those transformers 3 editions are sexy. :D
Parent
mx518 + puretrak + steelseries 7g
g400 + goliathus alpha + random genius keyboard.
Just buy a $10 keyboard... that's what I do.
and then keep on spilling milk on them and just buy more
Parent
I've only had to go through 3 this far. -__-
