Still stuck in a serious choosing problem...

Again, done some research and can't decide what gaming combo should I buy.

all at the same range of price and all got simillar and difference features, such as costumizations, better tech etc.

Stuck on choosing between 3 keyboards: Logitech G110, SteelSeries Shift and Microsoft X6 - all comes with macros which is kinda important to me, all got in-game macro recording thing etc...

X6 got cool unique feature compared to the other 2 which is Switchable key pad - very cool, don't know how much usable it is...

also got Cruise Control which is cool - used feature in some games.

Shift got another cool unique feature which is the All-round use - alot reminds the profiles that any gaming keyboard uses but this one also do as it said: It can reduce reaction time in First Person Shooters, it can increase Actions Per Minute in Real Time Strategy titles and it can do advanced macros (including timed delays) in Massive Multiplayer Online games.

and of course the Logitech G110 is pretty much regular gaming keyboard that looks very well indeed. no special features on this one...

I'm also still stuck on choosing mice -

SideWinder X8 USB Gaming Mouse - got 75G acceleration which is most unique, also wireless - up to 30 hours gaming, and after 15-20 min of charching you can play again another 30 hours - awesome isn't? got as well BlueTrack Technology World's most advanced tracking technology for gaming with image processing of 13,000 frames per second. got macros on it 5, and mouse wheel can tilt left and right - (for fps's basically), Full-speed, 500 Hz USB reporting is built for lag-free play.

Logitech Laser Mouse G9x - got it's cool features as well - you can custom him as well - weights, grip, two scroll modes (grip and slide) - basically like the RAT7 but without the aim botton.

SteelSeries Xai Laser Mouse - True Sensitivity: SteelSeries Xai offers you true hardware based sensitivity settings, freeing you of interpolation from game software.

Advanced Macros -On the SteelSeries Xai you can record 8 macros for key combinations that can be up to 200 different keystrokes and with a precise timing of sequences.

SteelSeries FreeMove eliminates path correction, which makes the mouse predict, correct and make your movement straight. For FPS games that require high precision, this is a crucial feature.

SteelSeries ExactRate enables you to adjust the rate of which data is sent from the SteelSeries Xai to your computer.

Saitek Cyborg R.A.T. 7 Gaming Laser Mouse

Tracking Speed - Up to 6m/sec - when most nowdays are 1ms - but how much does a 5m/s will effect my gaming? seriously probably none, currently using Microsoft 10$ mouse non gaming and I still rule the charts.... so anything would be good :D

probably most changeable custom mouse:

Interchangeable Pinkie grips and Palm rests, Custom Weight System, Precision Aim Mode – Hit your target the first time every time. Use the ST Programming Software to set your desired Precision Aim speed (mouse sensitivity), then hold down the Precision Aim button to slow down mouse movement to a level that works for you. A deadly weapon that will hit your enemy where it hurts. - probably main and best feature of this mice.

and of course the Razer Imperator - simple look, with bomb tech - Up to 200 inches per second/ 50g acceleration, 1000Hz Ultrapolling™ / 1ms response rate.

the problem? I think it's too simple for me, I need to be unique and not follow anything that's simply good. - no cool features? high con IMO

I'd go for the Razer set. It's cheaper and the Blackwidow is any incredible keyboard. Although, do note that the Ultimate edition of the Blackwidow has backlit keys while the normal Blackwidow does not. I don't know if that's important to you or not, but just making sure you know before you make a decision.

Blackwidow and Logitech G500.

You can get the Ultimate for 105$ at newegg. Though is disappointing that it only has one color glow.

Something you'll want to keep in mind about the Blackwidow is the fact that it uses Cherry Blue keyswitches, which some people have trouble gaming on. Also, the Blackwidow only has 2KRO, which means that at any given time the keyboard is only guaranteed to register two simultaneous key presses. I would definitely go for a mechanical keyboard, but you might want to do some more research on other keyboards before you go with the Blackwidow.kapp1

Yeah, I sadly is not nkro though. It can only register 2keys to 6keys at once only depending on what keys, is good enough for gaming, but I think it will hold you back if your a typist, true 100+wpm. The rosewill keyboard that newegg had have nkro, meaning you can jam the whole keyboard and still register. Whether is blue keys, blacks, or browns it depends on the user. It is really clicky and therefore loud if you like to have hear-feel to the keys than you will love it, but if you hate the noise than this kb is not for you.

If you like the g510, why not go for the g110 instead is cheaper unless you really like the lcd screen for $30 extra. You should also checkout the steelseries mech keyboards too.

I think is best to actually go out to the store and try to test the keyboards first. Though I dived head first with the blackwidow by buying it first without ever trying a mechanical keyboard. Overall I am warming up to its liking, and supposely mech keyboards are better for you fingers in the long run since your fingertips are not bottoming out for the keys to register.

wow that saitek looks like a ricer. id buy the g110 even if it cost double

I use a $10 generic keyboard. Is this why I am not as awesome as I can be in games like Bad Company 2? :P I do fairly well but will a gaming keyboard make a big difference?

How many keys can you press simultaneously with the G110?

thanks for all of you, I'll probably go with the G110, the Cyborg looks cheap kinda way, and I'm not the only one that's telling it, you can view reviews on YouTube, sites etc. Also you can see in vids that the backlit isn't accurate. I've also thought about the SteelSeries Merc Stealth - which is awesome for a FPS fanatic gamer (problem I'm not focused only on FPSs, I also play RPGs, RTSs and many other generes.

BTW do you know how many key pressing you can do at once on the G110?

Deck as in Deck Legend? I've always wanted those but they're so expensive. I guess I should start saving up.Elann2008

Nah, hes talking about the Deck 82.

I'm getting my Legend in toxic green flavor in exactly 1 month. I feel like a broken record constantly recommending the Legend to people but it's honestly the best gaming keyboard. Other than the macro keys is has every feature the OP in this thread is looking for.

Bah, blue switches and bad for gaming mantra is all exaggerated unless your a pro gamer (lol) than it shouldnt be problem with an average gamer. It registers 2keys to 6keys depending on what you pressed, again unless your hulk-smashing your keyboards than is already a lot better than cheap membrane keyboard, yes it is disappointing. Although one thing is for certain that it types nicely :)

The xArmor u9bl-s uses brown switches perhaps you may want to look into that for lighter touch. As for mouse personally the Lachesis is one of the best mouse out there. The g700 resembles the g7 shape which was also superb too.

Razer combo FTW.

Thank you everyone. I have had 17 people say my sig is good. I'm trying to set a GS record so carry on :P.

i don't think blackwidow is that bad.. yes, it uses blue switches but blue switches are not extremely bad at gaming, especially onceyou're used to it.. even there's a few professional gamers use bboards with blu switches.. the mainand ultimate drawback would be it's 2KRO.. however, at it's price point, the regular blackwidow has a great value for a mechanical keyboard.. you should consider that a mechanical keyboard will last you for looooooooong time.. i'm personally looking to either buy it or save some more money for one of those filcos..

Thank you all for the tips, advices etc.

I've been battling all day with my thoughts inside my head - the choosing between Microsoft combo and Razer was huge... on the one hand you've got the cool MS mice which is also wireless, and cool keyboard with the all features I'll ever need; on the other hand I've got a combo of Razer with 1m/s each, simple but high tech for gaming.

guess what... the wireless thingy, the cool backlit keyboard...didn't appeal me at the end of it all - Razer won the match.

plus it matched my Megalodon which I've already bought few weeks ago. also a Razer Golaithus mice pad is coming soon...

Again thanks for the help :)
