Update Post #20

Hi all unfortunately my keyboard has completely died (Razer Arctosa) after many years of abuse :p & now im looking for a new keyboard, after hours of searching Ive found a few that I like but before spending allot of money I wanted to get the opinions of others first. (Im on a really old Keyboard just now So I want to get something ordered today. (ASAP)

First let me say the main thing thing I liked about the Razer Arctosa was its nice simple layout & its separate easy to use Media Panel.

Here are some of the Keyboards that Im leaning towards after hours of searching.

Qpad MK-85 Red LED
Pros: Simple Layout & Red LED's
Cons: some say the lights don't turn off with the PC & poor customer support

Roccat Isku FX
Pros: Media Keys
Cons: looks gimmicky & reports say that its poor quality

Corsair Vengeance K60
Pros: good brand & nice Media Keys
Cons: Keys fade quickly, easily broken by spills :P

Razer Lycosa
Pros: similar to the Arctosa
Cons: not Mehcnaincal & the Blue LED's Ruin my theme :D

Im open to other Suggestions or any thoughts on the Keyboards Ive mentioned. Please help me choose fast. Thanks All

i need something that will handle my abuse for the next few years xD

& ye allot of ppl have been telling me to go with a Mechanical board which is my only problem with the g110 (other than that it looks great)

thanks again for posting, Ive been hearing allot of good things about the mechanical boards so defiantly leaning towards one of them.
 
Update: will be ordering a keyboard at 7pm (so if uve got any recommendations let me know) pretty sure I want to go with a Mechanical Keyboard (color/LED isn't too important) need something strong/reliable thats built to last. (and preferably with Media Keys)
 
I couldn't get hold of a card today so will be ordering tomorrow instead. A big THANK YOU! to everyone who posted. Ive decided to go for the Logitech G110 :)
