Office Mechnical Keyboard Recommendations

optimus · 31 Mar 2014 at 16:46

All,

I need a new keyboard for my home office, so thought Mechanical would be a good idea - however they all seem to be - Gaming related.

I do play some BF4 etc, but nothing to advanced.

Wireless would be even better, but I don't think there are any wireless Mechanical keyboards around.

Thanks

Wireless is very limited choice,
Does sound matter?
Have you any preference in switch type?

I had this requirement and went for a Ducky DK2108 Zero Mechanical Keyboard (well two actually, one brown switch and one blue - currently favouring the brown switches).

The only annoyance is the lack of wrist rest which was another common problem with non gaming mechanical keyboards. I worked around that with a Grifiti wrist pad which matches the height well, but we could definitely do with more choice in non-gaming mechanical keyboards!

I use a brown switch gigabyte osmium on my rig - half for coding, half for gaming / surfing. It has a detatchable wrist rest for those who need it.

You need to be looking at das, ducky and filco, and the grifiti pads are a great add-on, really comfy and durable. What's your budget for it?
