Hey Sup Forums is this a good entry mechanical keyboard for $40

don't fall for the mechanical keyboard meme

no
go to Sup Forums theres an autistic general about this shit
dont bother actually posting just read the pastebins

Just buy a razer blackwidow and call it a day user-kun.

embrace the chiclet keyboard meme

I have the white and blue one because it goes with my setup. It's alright for the most part and very aesthetically pleasing.

>not typing on nipple sensitive membranes with your dainty little faggot fingers

Memes aside the Das Keyboard Professional seemed like a complete waste of money when I bought it like 6 years ago. Turns out it's lasted longer than every other component that I bought at the same time. Aside from a few knicks from various coffee mugs smashing into it, it still looks and performs exactly how it did on day 1.

If you have PS2 ports, some of the older keyboard models are pretty nice. I'm pretty satisfied with my old Compaq media keyboard, plus they're pretty cheap if you're willing to clean them.

It says it uses Outemu switches, which might be shit. I personally use Gateron Blues and think they're great.

Get a keyboard with full key rollover or you will regret it.

I got a drevo 84 key from amazon and it has hald up really well, and the switches are pretty amazing.

>keyboard only a year old
>starting to get a lot of keypresses not registering
i hope it just needs cleaning

Cheaper mechanical keyboards tend to use cheaper non-cherry switches that can fail faster. Make sure you do your research before you buy. I think the cheapest way to get a full cherry mx keyboard is still through monoprice.

I have the white one. The keys are loud as shit (like louder than cherry) but I think it's a great keyboard regardless. It's a pretty great bargain famalam. I haven't had any problems so far.

>like louder than cherry
You are aware that not all cherry switches are the same, right?

It has knockoff blues that are louder than cherry blues.

Well considering they don't use cherry switches in the keyboard I'd say I'm pretty aware user. I was making a comparison.

>Mechanicalkeyboards has clear cherry brown and red switches
>No Blue
Why.

Was thinking about buying this one or the red dragon, buti heard the red dragon one is harder to press.

They're owned and produced by the same company, any difference in build is probably chalked up to poor QC.

In need of a new KB that can be used for gaming as well. Not looking for any glowing multicolored freakshow mechanical keyboard. Need something that's comfortable to type on, low profile keys that are quiet but give nice feedback, no issues with multi button presses and is full size. Have a K800 which was perfect but it's now doing weird things due to being wireless and old.

Do you share a room/house/zipcode with other people who will be asleep while you play games? If so don't buy a mechanical keyboard, it's loud as shit.

You can buy silent mechanical switches.
