I stopped by bestbuy after work just now and got the G502. All good thus far. About to jump into my first game of league with it.

Bought the Razer Naga Epic Chroma recently. This thing is really impressive. Wireless capability, great driver support, and those side buttons are game-changing (literally). Definitely recommend if you're in the market for high-end mice. Razer is meh on a lot of stuff, but they are the gold standard for gaming mice IMO

Best purchase you've ever made. It's a phenomenal mouse.

Razer makes fine products, nothing wrong with Razer and they are very popular. Get over it.

Solid, too many buttons on the side for me but I love my Naga Hex. And yeah great driver support, Razer Synapse 2.0 is perfect.

I'm gonna get the Razer BlackWidow Chroma keyboard here before long.

Quit shitposting on the gaming board. If you don't like Razer, give us a reason or a suggestion to a better product.

IDK what it is about Razer that brings out the rage in some people...

Razer BlackWidow Chroma keyboard



I own it, and kind of wish I had gone with the K70RGB. This is the first Razer thing I've owned that crapped out on me, and the replacement BlackWidow Chroma I got has issues with sticky keys. Pretty disappointing for such an expensive piece of equipment.

My Razer Blackwidow Ultimate had a few keys go out on it. I posted a few weeks back on what a solid replacement would be and I went with the K70RGB.

It's a fantastic keyboard, but I thought the Razer software was a lot better than Corsair. Theres a ton of combinations and effects you can do on the K70, but it's pretty complicated to me. One thing that bugs me is the default profile is a Red Backlighting, and when you boot your pc up, it stays red for a minute or two until the program loads in and changes the profile. (I may be doing this wrong as well)

I've heard both keyboards are solid, My Blackwidow was awesome when it worked, and my K70 feels fantastic from what I've done with it.

Just want to quote this.

WAS Razer an ok company for supplies? Yes. Are they now? No. They are trying to cut cost without lowering prices. I had a Black Widow 2013 and loved it. It survived a good beating and still works. I have since replaced it with a Ducky Shine 3 for different switches and less sound when bottoming out, but there wasn't anything wrong with the Razer. However, from 2014 on, they've cut out Cherry MX switches in favor of cheaper Chinese knockoffs, and have lowered the production value of their products. Any recent Razer product isn't going to last 9/10.

I have multiple times. Feel free to stroke my cock. UH and I banter like this daily. If you don't like it, refer to sentence #2 of this post. But just to appease your bleeding vagina;

If you want a keyboard: Ducky

If you want a mouse: Logitech

Yep. In league especially, your fingers already have enough keys to be occupied with (and you need to be on point).

Being able to use your thumb and the mouse buttons is extremely convenient and efficient.



I use my thumb buttons for laugh taunt and dance.

On my Blackwidow Ult 2013 it doesn't even say it had the Cherry MX Switches. The reason I checked was for when I upgraded my keyboard, I wanted to get something similiar, and my K70 doesn't feel close to my BW Ult. This link to Razer says that it has "Razer™ Mechanical Switches." Unless those are just the Razer version of the cherry mx red switch?

Just curious that you had said that, I thought the same thing.. I figured a company like Razer would use a popular brand of switch to attract devoted buyers.
