Keyboard recomendations

[HeK]

I've got some spare gift card money and thinking about getting a G15, any real difference between the $76 one and the $199 one?

I am guessing one is not a G15.

The only difference I see is more G keys and a prettier LCD.

[zaneyard]

i wouldn't buy the used one from "2 sellers"

it's an old model

[Versus]

yeah, the $200 one is a 1st gen, why would they sell a used, older G15 for $200 ???

Just buy a Razer Lycosa for $85 and get a better product in general.

agreed
you'll notice how much of a gimmick the LCD screen on the keyboard is when you start using it

[Didzo]

I got a Logitech G110 keyboard and a Razer Mamba mouse.

Now all I need is a decent internet connection; both wireless and ethernet intertubes have been awful recently.

So basically, no TF2 for the time being.

There some nifty custom stuff you can do with that LCD, like have IRC in it

Or see who's speaking in Vent, or see your CPU/Mem usage, or frame rate, or CPU/Video/HDD/Case temps, or fan speeds, or... well, anything.
I actually make very good use of it.

Somehow you sold me too, and I don't even need a keyboard.....what is going on....I feel a sudden need to know my case temp from looking at my keyboard.....

[zaneyard]

[Versus]

wireless isn't actually the big problem the laser is

There is no Vent plug-ing, Vent is just awesome and natively supports the G15.
So does Dragon Age and Crysis... and a bunch of other newer games.

One thing about the g19 that helped was that the media controls work on applications with out having to be focused on that window. This means I can minimize iTunes to the system tray and still have control.
