I didn't see that model, I think I searched based on offers. I don't think a readout would be too useful with my layout, I have a Logitech G15 for realtime monitoring anyhow, and I've just seen a replacement if it breaks:
EVGA Z10 Gaming Keyboard, Red Backlit LED, Mechanical Blue Switches, Onboard LCD Display, Macro Gaming Keys.
I was going to get the intel but waited too long and price went up by £100. I saw on userbenchmarks that it is 95% vs the 9900ks 105%. I am at 1080p so I could have used the extra grunt. Counterstrike source actually ran faster in the tests I saw. Hopefully they make games more parallel friendly in future.
