I got the Razer Lycosa about 3 weeks ago. It's a bag of ****. With in a couple of hours my most used buttons began to get stuck, and guess which they were? WSAD and everything around them - with the Caps Lock the worst of them all!

Then I found out there is no Anti-Ghosting on the Caps Lock, or somthing along those lines, which I discovered if you hold down any 2 keys the Caps Lock doesn't work. SERIOUS? Do I need to change my binds that I've used for years to accommodate this lazy design thought?

Ok so I want to spend no more than 80 if possible, this Lycosa cost me 66.

I'd prefer it to be back lit, and Mechanical is a bonus I guess.

This is one I immediately thought could be good for me:

ROCCAT Isku

Help me, this is my life we are talking about.. lol

EDIT: Hopefully the recommendations are in Scan, cos I'm going to go to drive to the store today n do the swap on the Lycosa.

logitec g15 is only about £60 now m8

back lit Trooper? Few people have mentioned this tbh

If any of you remember this bad boy... Kudos!

(I still have one :O)

That's hilarious Xano, I feel like I'd get herpes or somthin from using that keyboard lmao

You should hear the noise the keys make when you press them. It's like someone threw a glass brick from the empire state and I type quick, very quick. I often woke up my whole house using one of those. Thats my recommendation though! SICK Keyboard!

lol you caused the Floods in Thailand I bet

Not sure why, but Saitek seemed to stop making the Saitek Eclipse Keyboards, they are awsome! If you can get ur hands on a Saitek Eclipse II that would be a good one.

Get a mechanical keyboard.

Steelseries have great keyboards:

Whats so good with mechanical keyboards?

There is no real advantage with mechanical keyboards.. wake up its technology from the 1980's...

I would recommend either the G15, or G110.. amazing keyboards that just last and last, Cheap to buy aswell, why waste money of items that is just pricy cause their "hot" right now?

 Concker
shush, its awesome! atleast if you write as fast as me, cause then it sounds like your awesome when you are just dribbling like i am right now :D woop woop

A cheap dell keyboard no doubt just as good as any then.

Glad you like it, mechanical keyboards just feel so good for gaming and sound like your typing twice as fast :D

mechanical keyboards is old technology with no real advantage over regular keyboards and just sounds horrible when u type on them.. true story =/

SHUT UP

Have my G15 since release date and so does a mate. Its filthy, the G-keys don't work, the screen is broke and the lights have rave-like behaviour. But it's working on strong!!!

Hoorah G15 :D

(Anything thats broke, I broke. Hammerfist of anger, keys splattered all over the room MANY MANY times and STILL working! :D)

 Xano

Well i guess that just means you are a hard user aswell.

Ive had my G15 v2 since release and it still works perfectly, nothing is cracked its in mint condition. so yeah, G series for president over this old mechanical loud **** ^^

Mine isn't even a V2 thats how long I've had it...
