What do you currently have?

I'm all for wireless over wired. I use a keychron k2 now and I love it

How’s the input delay on wireless vs wired?

Just recently grabbed the Logitech G915 TKL wireless. I’ve noticed zero lag input. Battery last forever (40 hours of continuous play). Getting into keyboards can be crazy expensive, once you get into custom boards etc. I paid 220 ish for the Logitech and have zero regrets.

As one who mained the OG g613 for years, and still uses it as a primary work keyboard, the g915 is hot garbage for $220. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone

What don’t you like about it? I have the Japanese version which is the G913 over here, and it’s been a fantastic kb for me.

Romer G switches are terrible imo, and it's absurdly overpriced

Won't argue over the switches, as they def aren't the best. My choices out here were slim, either build a custom, which the prices are high and I still don't feel comfortable enough to take on a keyboard build, or buy what was available. I've enjoyed it though and I don't regret the purchase.

Currently have the kb that came with my recent pc upgrade. Lennova special plastic pos. Been using Mac for the last 15 years and wanted to try some newer games.

If you're coming from a Mac, then you know what a good keyboard feels like.

You'd probably like any Blue or Brown mechanical switch (I prefer Cherry or Gateron switches)

HHKB Professional Hybrid Type-S

Open it up and lube the stabilizers with Krytox 205g0, and optionally lube the switch sliders as well.

Just got a Q1 from Keychron and have been loving it, highly recommended coming from a Corsair K70.

Not an issue with anything modern





RE: OP's question, doesn't really matter. There are keyboards/switches out there with faster actuation (shorter time to activate the key), I own several as well as a ton of normal ones, and I can honestly tell you that even in the most competitive of games as a mid to upper mid tier player I cannot tell the difference

So really it's just about what you like. Good sounds or physical feedback from the keys.

I would look into the GMK Pro. That is pretty sweet. Also Coolermaster is releasing a knock off of it and it looks pretty sweet as well and way cheaper. Take a look. I personally have the g915 tkl tactile but it was expensive. It is great though. really appreciate typing on it after using my old mech at work.
