Yes that's right I went for the 40A ones.

If you are like me and bottom out a lot and find it a tad loud then they are worth getting. The o ring dampers do make quite a difference esp. if you bottom out the keys when you are gaming. No more clack clack noise of the plastic hitting the switch.
I still got some left (I left my numpad side unmodded) If you trust me over your details I can mail some out for you to try (about 10ish o rings) so you can see if you like them first before you commit to buying a whole pack.
Just make sure you have a key remover, you don't want to damage your switches.

Your o-rings came today in the post. Have to say they make quite a bit of difference. Like you said before no more clack clack noise but with the same quality feel.

I will definitely be ordering some more so I can do the rest of the keys.

Thanks again.
 
My Filco Majestouch2 arrived this morning, i'm very impressed so far, just taking it out the box, just such a quality feel, very solid, dosnt rattle or creak, key presses are so crisp and precise, think i made the right decision going for cherry browns.
I think i will get along very nicely with this board.

Wow that took ages to arrive lol! I sent them on Saturday afternoon. I am glad to hear that you recieved them.
yeah I prefer them on because I tend to bottom out the keys when I game so having them really help.

Here is some advice when you go to do the rest of the keyboard.

When you go to do the Shift, Back space, enter, spacebar, 0 key on the numpad and capslock keys be careful not to over pull the key because they have a metal bar hinge underneath them all.

Also I had a problem with one of the keys whenever I pressed it, it would not register unless I press really, really hard. I thought I knackered the switch, turns out I had somehow managed to out 2 o rings on it! Doh! don't make the same mistake as me lol

Nice one mate! Just in time for Xmas too!
After having mine for a good few weeks now I really have confidence that it will last me for an extremely long time! Only thing I don't like about it is that the LED's are very bright and it lights up my ceiling when it's dark! I just place a compact flash card over it to block it out for now until I can find a more permanent solution. lol
 
I've deided it's time to go mekhanikal (my 'see' key is broken on this keyboard!)

I'm looking at the Qpad options, what exaktly is the differene between the 80 and the 85? There's about £45 differene in prie but the only differene I kan see is the blue/red leds!

Or alternatively are there any other keyboards you would get? I'm mainly as gamer.

I'm really sorry about the lak of see's in this post, hope it's legible :p

Filco Majestouch 2 ?
No backlight but it's a decent keyboard in my opinion.
 
I have now decided I cannot live without a UK layout and I am now drawn to the Steelseries 6 GV2. Black switches though am not sure if I will like them.
