cherry g84 5200 mechanical keyboard. $50 shipped. since i ordered around noon i have seen the price jump to 69.99 and now to 82.73 so i am pretty happy with the deal that i got. i think its like $84 on newegg also.

does anyone have any experience with this keyboard? this will be my first mechanical, replacing an OE logitech that came with my newegg bargain box pc a few years back.

I've been contemplating on a mechanical keyboard.

I have to have backlit keys though. I just can't live without them.

after messing with a buddies g510 for a while i agree that backlit keys are nice, but since i use my computer mostly in a lit room i dont find it a necessity. i really like the razer keyboard but i had $65 in amazon gift cards so that kind of limited what i could buy since the cheapest razer keyboard (not mechanical i dont think) wasnt available on amazon for some reason.

really looking to hear from anyone who has experience with cherry ML switches as apparently they are quite uncommon and will have a lighter feel than the MX switches that are common in most mechanical keyboards.

Well, once you get yours, you can tell us about it. If it's good, might just get one for my spare computer.
