Most of the top keyboards don't have sleep buttons any more :confused:.

Still using an old Compaq key board, which is starting to die.
Anyone recommend a decent keyboard that has a sleep button.

corsair use it but I have to ask why?

I mean the speed of the modern computer for boot up makes sleep mode pretty pointless

Although I imagine sleep works better now than it did when sandybridge came out and it would cause bootloops.

Works perfectly for me, always has done. Vista was the first OS to get the sleep function right. Admittedly XP was a pain, but we are way past that now.
SSD's do boot fairly quickly agreed. But my system resumes in 2 seconds or so and all your apps are open and ready where you left off.
IMO sleep is sooooo much more convenient.

Nobody should be using the sleep function in Windows anymore. Just get an SSD.

Thats your opinion....certainly not mine.
IMO there is no justifiable reason not to use such a convenient feature.

Your opinion again.
I have it working perfectly on my haswell-e system.


Besides I like to use the sleep function , hence asking for oppinions on keyboards *with* a sleep button

Thanks TwsT I'll look into the corsair. Any particular model.

Sleep mode can be done in about 3-5 key presses on windows. No need to limit yourself to specific keyboards just for a sleep button :)

Yes I know.

But for many reasons I want a keyboard with a sleep button
Hence the post "Keyboard *WITH* a sleep button" not " Alternative ways to get around not having a sleep button " :p
