My current qpad mk80 is on its way out as a couple of the keys have started to become temperamental, so I've started to look for a replacement. Although I really can't decide what I want to replace it with. When I was at pax east I managed to test out some of the cm storm keyboards and different keyswitches but I'm still stuck on what I want. I currently have the mx blues so I thought I'd like the mx Brown switches, but I think they don't really have the same sort of feedback that the blues do, I did quite like the greens but I'd prefer a quieter switch so I was considering the clears as they are stiffer than the blues but are also quieter, the only problem is that getting them in the UK seems to be really difficult. After I thought I had decided on the greens/clears, I started to play some cs go and had the idea of the reds, but I'm not so sure about them due to them being linear. So as you can see I'm quite undecided :P

As for keyboards, I have decided that I'd probably get on best with a tenkeyless layout, so I've narrowed my search down to the cm storm tk sort of line, the corsair k65 rgb and the ducky mini (although I don't know what a 60% would be like)


If anyone could help me/give me any advice it would be much appreciated :)

Also my main use is gaming for the pc that the keyboard that I choose will be attached to ;)
 
I do like the look of ducky boards, originally I did take a look at the fire 4 69 but I think it is a bit expensive. So I started to look at the mini (sadly the mx green model is more expensive)

I know what you mean about the backlighting as I don't really need it for gaming as I don't look at the keys, although it is nice to have. I am trying to learn to touch type and I'd like to have blank or side printed keycaps as they look good (half of my current ones are anyway)
 
I do really like the filco ninja, only problem is that it is pretty expensive for just a standard keyboard, as it doesn't really seem to have that many features :/
 
I was more meaning in terms of features like dedicated hardware buttons or wrist rests (I would get one of those grifiti ones if the board didnt come with one though)
 
Anyone know much about the ozone strike battle? I just saw it on another site, and it looks really nice and pretty cheap :)
