hey guys, need a new keyboard and looking for a slim'ish one as have a narrow desk but also play games so nothing crazy small! what do you reckon? needs to be black and blue neon lights always look good

I've got a M$ Reclusa...black with blue backlighting, the internals are made by Razer so it's pretty sturdy.

Also using this keyboard, it's superb

I got my GF a Reclusa a while ago, really nice keyboard. thinking of getting myself one.

Quite like the Apple flat keyboards but dont think theyd be comfy enough for long stints at the computer- obviously not black so not useful for the OP.

I have got a hiper brushed aluminium keyboard, nice quality finish to it.

I have an Enermax Aurora and a Razer Lycosa. Both great.

I use the bog-standard Microsoft Wired Keyboard.

It's pretty slim, spillage-resistant, responsive, customisable keys, nice to type on, good to game with, available in black or white and the best thing is it only cost £7!

Edit: Just had a look and OcUK don't stock it, you can get it from most places though.

Logitech diNovo keyboard for notebooks.

so much choice!

MS Sidewinder X6 here - really good board but red lighting so maybe not ideal for you

Wired?

Wireless?

Why not give the Saitek Eclipse III a look. Smart looking keyboard and it allows you to play in complete darkness

is it red or can you change the colours?

Luxor · 13 Dec 2008 at 14:20

You can change the LED colour to suit. Take a look at the manufacturers website about it.

I'd also recommend the G15, but it's not really slim as the OP requires

Definitely get a G15 if you can fit it on the desk,.
