cool thanks for the link. I checked a review of it yesterday and it's impressive. So far I must say the Rpaid-i is working out great. The backlight is a bit excessive when you have t on it's brightest setting but turning it down a bit help a lot. I'm still getting fully use to it but so far so good. I can't really say if it's a good mechanical keyboard or not cause this is my first one so there might be better ones out there or not I never know. The brown switches doesn't really make a lot of noise as i though it would so that's a plus in my book.

It's honestly the best keyboard I can imagine. It's made of metal, so there's zero flex, and the attention to detail is astounding.

You can also pick what sort of Cherry MX switches you like. I went for blue. They're clicky and noisy, so perhaps not great for an office.

+1 Great KB's the the one without the etching is great if you touch type...
 
I own 2 CoolerMaster mechanicals: a QuickFire Rapid Blue an a QuickFire Pro? Red. Both are amazing and have lasted me a few years already. Compared to the Razer Blackwidow with blue switches, the QuickFire feels a lot more sturdy and just better.

One annoyance that I have with the full-sized keyboard is that the damned FN button doesn't work how you expect. Instead of being a modifier key, like on any laptop keyboard, it toggles on and off. So you have to push it in, press the function key you want, and then push it again to turn the FN mode off. So annoying. I don't believe the Rapid has this problem.

So about +-1 week of use on my Rapid-i and all I can say is awesome. If you looking for a ten keyless keyboard then give the Rapid-I a go. The build quality is great but just 1 bad think is the rubberish finish can attrac oil marks from your hands easily and makes me wonder after a while it will be worn out but will have to wait and see. I was worried about no wrist rest but actually it's not that big of a deal.
 
I wonder where you can get those old AT IBM keyboards that goes "click,clack clack,clack"

Cant you reprogram it?
 
I just want a keyboard with scissor keys :(

See no huge gaps between the keys:

Just bought myself the Razer BlackWidow Ultimate 2014 edition. Was trying to get the Stealth, but it's not available. Hoping I made the right choice.
 
How loud are these keyboards? I would assume that everyone would go for the brown switches as it is more quiet?
