didn't expect almost everyone of you being so cheap about the keyboard :P considering the huge avalanche of comments on the mouse thread,
which is completely irrelevant imo since we play a game where you need aiming skills like a dead potato and nobody plays any fps or sth
competetively ^^

wet keyboard joke is getting lame already :smug:

The thing is, you notice a high quality mouse regardless of what you do. Even simply browsing the web a good mouse will be much more comfortable than some cheap faulty piece of junk. A keyboard on the other hand doesn't make much of a difference. You press the buttons and the letters appear. The button types differ, depending on the models (e.g. slim vs ordinary) and mechanical switches can be pretty good, but they are way too expensive, IMO.

so wrong like always when inxenity talks about sth he cant understand ...if you write alot on your pc, you will for sure feel the difference furthermore some want silent keyboards and then you need them cherry mx keys, not only for gaming but also for fast writers its important that the keyboard supports NKRO16 or higher. its also nice to define the key travel and to have good software. and there are even more features that a keyboard can have to please your individual likes.

Yes, NKRO16 is pretty important if you're too retarded to press the buttons one after another. For fast writing, a cheap slim (i.e. wannabe notebook) keyboard will do, because the key travel is low.

yeah maybe u notice a difference between a 5€ tchibo mouse or something similiar and a 30€ mouse from logitech,ss,razer,insertrandombrandhere, but then again it's only important how it feels in your hand ( i.e. you like it curved or straight, big/small/heavy/light ). even then you can get such a mouse for like 15€.
but you won't notice a difference performance wise between a let's say 1500 dpi mouse and 4000 dpi mouse, especially not in wot.

i'll go with brati at this topic. you feel a much bigger difference with keyboards, i.e. how noisy it is, how smooth the keys are, extra keys, makros. in general a lot of comfort you can get there which is actually noticeable, especially when you write a lot or use it for more than pressing wasd.
i guess for one person the mouse brings more comfort for the other one the keyboard.

when i have decided what to buy i'll give some insight on the product of my choice :P

I was referring to the quality of the sensor, scroll wheel and switches rather than the shape of the mouse. I have yet to see a cheap mouse that didn't have at least one of the following:
- a terribly awkward scroll wheel (too small, not enough grip, unresponsive, etc.)
- a sensor that goes full retard nonstop
- mouse buttons that are way too hard/soft.

to give you guys an update i was in a store today to take a look at the razer keyboard ( they had a kinda bad variety, spammed with roccat and razer stuff though )
and i can just say for myself that the deathstalker keyboard is pretty much crap. buttons feel like cheap plastic and the keyboard in general seems to give the impression it won't last long.
couldn't take a look at the lights, but first impression was really meh.
so definitely a no-go

i tried the razer black widow too and have to say, that one was pretty nice and felt really good, but for 150€ the price is way too high imo

gonna check another store tomorrow to see if there is room for more choices :P

you should test them blue switches before cause i think brown keys are gud for typing and stuff and red/blue were made for gaming and ze difference is noticeable

best nerd site i have is this one: http://www.tomshardware.de/Mechanische- ... 784-2.html but its german and you need to translate it
