I know there's a bunch of sites and resources, but it's pretty overwhelming when trying to find a specific keyboard so hopefully you guys can help. I've had my current keyboard, a Microsoft Sidewinder x6 for a few years now and the wear and tear is showing. Oddly enough, I also find myself typing better on my Macbook Pro's keyboard! Maybe it's just because I'm typing more on it that I got used to it, or the Sidewinder is just that bad.
Reading around, it seems that Cherry Blue's are the best for typing? I tried a blackwidow in a store and the sound doesn't bother me at all... just too bad the keyboard wasn't hooked up to a computer for actual testing, but the tactile feedback does feel great.
This keyboard will be primarily be used for typing... I do game, but I don't need any macro keys or any 'game' specific buttons. I do however want a backlit keyboard (Blue preferred) and multimedia keys... multimedia keys kinda optional since I can still assign f-keys to VLC, but would much rather have dedicated media keys.
Looking to spend around 100, but my budget can be stretched if it's a keyboard that's a perfect fit. Closest thing I saw at the store that I liked was the K90 from Corsair. Solid construction, but the keys just didn't have that tactile feedback... and I heard that some of the keys weren't even mechanical? So yeah, any suggestions?
