Blue Switch Gaming Keyboards

The brown switch feels much better than the blue switch.

This would be my first gaming headset, the blue microphone definitely is very different from anything i used before. thanks again B&H. Received the headset in just 4 days.

Grabbed one of these for work with the blue switches and I can actually type faster on it than the keyboard that I use at home. I will only use full sized keyboards and they have to be mechanical and clicky for me so this hits the sweet spot. Much better than the dozens of other low priced mechanical keyboards I've owned and nearly as good as the custom GMMK that I use at home. Can't beat this for the price.

CM Quickfire Rapid is the ten keyless mechanical keyboard I could find that worked with Mac out of the box. All multimedia keys work with Mac. A lot of mechanical keyboards I researched had some sort of issue with Mac or required some software to be installed. The CM Quickfire rapid works right out of the box. The most you would have to do is update your modifier keys in OSX and switch your key caps for option/command. I own two of these keyboards now, one with blue and one with brown cherry mx keys. I used the blue version for over a year and wanted to get a quieter version for use at work. I tried adding o-rings to the blue keyboard and it greatly reduced the sound by preventing the keys from bottoming out. The main problem I had with this solution was that the click of the blue key switches is still very audible and the o-rings decreased the travel of the keys. Making it feel too short in my opinion. The brown key switch version is much quieter since there's no audible click. To prevent bottoming out, I removed the o-rings I put in the blue version and put them in the brown. Making the brown even quieter than it already was. Perfect for an office environment shared with other coworkers. The brown key switches are nice if you like the the blue keys, but need to do without the audible click. The brown keys have a noticeable bump when you press down on them. Cons: Lack of backlit keys. I don't have a need for the backlit keys, but would be a nice to have. All of the other ten keyless with backlit keys were about double the price of this one. No USB hub. While not needed, would be nice if it also had a USB hub like some of the other mechanical keyboards I researched.

I love my iPad, but don't use it nearly enough to justify buying a laptop. I bought blue tooth keyboards in the past, but they were difficult to use when in the truck, on the road, or in other non-typical locations. The rugged book was a great solution. A coworker had one and I was impressed by it. So I got one myself and am quite happy with it.

I strongly prefer mechanical keyboards. My Cherry MX Blue Stem arrived today and it's perfect. Replaces a sixteen year old Mircon mechanical keyboard that was beginning to wear out. Unless one is a gammer I see no reason to spend more for the more expensive keyboards

I have had many many Logitech keyboards and mice. A few months ago, I got new MX Ergo blue ball mouse and this keyboard. I love it of course. However, once desktop goes into sleep mode, and I wake it up...the keyboard does not wake, I have to unplug and replug it in to the USB hub. I believe it is because the in line resistors, needs more juice to start. Is it an over sized capacitor in there? Does anyone know? This keyboard is mechanical, with large high keys and sound. But I believe it is best for my messy desk. And looks fabulous next to the MXErgo mouse. What a pair! I made a custom shelf for both that can swing out easily. (Cedar wood with curves and sanded corners and edges).

Was a bit skeptical about a wireless kb for gaming, but so far this is probably one of the best keyboards I've ever owned and I've owned a lot. Might even try out a mouse from Asus now.

Excellent battery life and great value for money. Great for gaming controllers, wireless keyboards, and such.

Great headset from recently one of my favorite technology websites. Can find all of my gaming peripherals like Logitech keyboards and mice and everything I imagine. Headset is clear and very strong. Thinking of buying a professional microphone soon and maybe going above and beyond traditional gaming headsets
