    Heh, gaming "mause". Anywhoo, go for the least expensive one. All of them will work with World of Warcraft, and all of them have macro keys. (Which I assume is why you're listing them.)

    Keyboards due to their digital input type generally don't vary in how 'good' they are for gaming; as its all about personal preference.

    Mechanical switch keyboards have better actual keys, in the form of better durability and (as long as the switch choice is sensible) most argue are more 'comfortable' to type on and use. Layout is a key part as well - some users prefer keyboards that are compact, whereas others prefer curved or spaced out boards.

    Other keyboards can sport other side features such as macros (which I have found limited use of in games - but are amazing for general use).

    Its worth to note that its very rare that a keyboard has both - its often one or the other.

    The interface (PS/2 or USB) is perhaps the biggest keyboard property that can probably measurably alter speed - but its ridiculously small as is and is insignificant overall; and is in most games too small to actually be able to make a difference due to both still occuring within the same 'window'.

    I can say that for me for example any keyboard that lacks a left-hand Winkey button will immediately get thrown in the garbage, such as the Steelseries 7G - which is otherwise fairly popular amongst mechanical boards - as its one of the easiest to get hold of.

    They also clear your computer room pretty quick when people come in and they can't stand sound.

    If you're going with Logitech, just get one of the $20 cheap ones, it's the same membrane tech as the expensive "gaming" keyboards.

    I got a Logitech G19 when they did the remodel (orange) and just this Christmas I picked up a G510 and I am still in love with the way these keyboards feel, as for you it really depends what you are looking for in a keyboard, mechanical keys, back lighting, extra assignable keys, media keys ect..

    logitec g19/g15 hands down.
    Religion is like a penis.
    It's fine to have one.
    It's fine to be proud of it.
    But please, don't whip it out in public and wave it around,
    And please, don't try to shove it down my children's throats.

    That black widow keyboard is super sexy, damn thats more things I need to add to my list

    but yeah I just bought this cheap 20$ keyboard for my last build, I don't need a fancy macros one or anything, but this standard keyboard does the job I need it to do.

    I'd rather have a 6 drive 15k SAS array do that. Sounds better.

    Only if they're mounted to a nice big steel case with no cushioning or dampening <3

    We were taking the ACTs in the tech room for use of the space and the teacher actually walked up and flat out unplugged the servers. Made. My. Day.
