Are Keychron Keyboards good for gaming /v/?
its just a mechanical keyboard
I have a k4 and have zero complaints
Great entry keyboard if you don't want to bother with customizing your shit.
their keycaps are smaller than average and their keys are flat compared to boards with more elevation between each row
>>729136151I have one and it works just fine
>>729136525That's where I'm at doe. I don't want to do any of these retarded group buys or build my own I just want a high quality one even if I have to pay extra for it
>>729136552yeah I didn't like the keycaps mine came with, I swapped em all out
>>729136151>doesn't even have a built in cable>have to use a cuckport that will slowly wear out.
>>729136151I love keychron ergonomics but every single keychron keyboard I've bought has had major issues. Their quality control must be spotty, because all 4/4 of them had different dying keys. Sometimes DOA, sometimes after a few months, sometimes after a year. I learned how to solder and bought replacement switches to fix them myself, even, but eventually I gave up on the trouble of it.
>>729136151Yeah? Maybe not out of the box though, I didn't like the keycap profile my q3 max came with. I don't even know who this weird tall profile is for because it didn't feel good for gaming or typing, so I just swapped it out with regular ones and I'm happy. I also changed the switches but that's more a personal preference thing.
>>729136151>gaming keyboardyou want an hall effect keyboard then
I got the meme Amazon budget one with removable switches. It's been pretty good but I am missing my numpad.
>>729136151It's a keyboard.
Are Lemokeys just cheaper Keychrons?
Keytroon keyboards are exclusively for contributing to open source software projects while wearing programming socks.
>>729136151I have a Q6 and it's been good, I got barebones and gave it some silent browns then grabbed some custom keycaps.
>>729136754Keychron is overpriced in general, for what it offers.
>>729136819when was the last time you went 24 hours without thinking about a tranny
get yourself an aula f75 for 35 bucks off Ali.best purchase I've had.linear switches are great.
>>729136973Prolly the last time him or any of us got 24 hours without a tranny affecting anything we're interested in. How well do you think that goes?
>>729137170seems to me like your interest IS them, otherwise you wouldn't bring them up unprompted in a keyboard thread
>>729136151I like the color palettes because I had it up to here with the RGB gaymen keyboards so something that doesn't light up for no reason is good for me.That said the prices are too high for what I am getting, and it is almost always some weird manufacturer.
>>729136674adding onto this: anyone have any good suggestions for a basic mechanical keyboard similar to a keychron k4v3? I just need a basic white backlight so I can clearly see the keys in dim lighting.
>>729137496I think we all have an interest in them going away forever, yes. Thankfully you seem to finally understand.Also ywnbaw
It's okay but the linear switches I got aren't as good in some scenarios where I need a bit more reaction time cause I have to press in so deep and honestly it's rough on the hands after many hours and daily use. get other switches or shorter ones imo
Just bought this for $20 and coming from 5$ Logitech keyboard I feel like this is really clunky to use for fps gaming. It's really good for typing and the sound it's satisfying tho.

>>729136151I have the K2 HE. It's a fucking meme for the price. Hall-effect was considered the holy-grail a few years back, since they can last forever and be super smooth. The other 'gaming' benefits is just stupid marketing.>but you can use it in analog mode for racing gameStill better to just use a pad.>but you can do this precise strafing in FPS gamesSituational bullshit that only matters in super high-level play>but you can change the actuation point and user rappid-triggerNo reason to do any of that.The switches are quite loose when it comes to stem / housing fit, so they are wobbly and rattly, Keychron's thin keycaps make it even worse. For about 80 bucks you can get a good quality chink-mech and with hot-swap, switch durability is a non issue.
>>729136151I have this:https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-q6-he-qmk-wireless-custom-keyboardI like it, I turned all its lights off though and switched out the key caps.

I bought this because it looked cute. It’s arriving either today or tomorrow. Hope it lasts
>have an old razer and an old logitech wireless mouse>Both are shitting the bed now which is to be expected since they are 10 years old.>Discuss with frens about it one time and said I'll just grab a 30$ combo mouse and keyboard since at the end of the day it doesn't matter that much>One consoomer fren goes apeshit at the idea, says I need a 120$ mouse for the precision and a 200$ custom keyboard for confortWas weird to see. The other lads were just as confused as me.
>>729136151just get a ducky
Can someone explain the whole mechanical keyboard 'hobby' to me?
>>729143060Since I'm a terminally online shutin I would like my computer peripherals to be as high quality and comfortable to use as possible.
>buy C2>like it>buy C2 pro>it's too sensitiveFUCK
>Steelseries Apex 3All you need.We wil se if this piece of shit will come close to my old G15 which is almost 17 years old now and still works flawlessly....
I will never understand tkl keyboards, numpad feels essential to me.
>>729143591>>Steelseries Apex 3Another overpriced keyboard.
>>729136151no. these are only good for being a mentally ill degenerate.
>>729144603True.Everything is overpriced tho.Welcome to jew world. Enjoy your stay.
>>729139051What is the round dial for?
>>729145010dilation
>>729145010Poor people don't have dual scroll wheels on their mice, so they need one in an awkward place on their keyboard instead. They used to put them in the palm rest, now those don't exist so you lose a key instead.
>>729143974as a tkl user by force and not choice, you're rightbut mostly because software often assumes you have a numpad and occasionally those controls are not rebindable easily.
>>729140493Low iq and communist takeYes it does, expensive shit is higher quality and feels way nicer to use than cheap shit
>>729145486yes, but I'm using the 5 to 30 dollars keyboards for decades and they perform just fine. I agree with you that hardware does affect a player's perfomance, but not to such a degree as a to turn a mediocre player into a pro.Speaking of which, back in the day, decades ago, hanging around pro players from quake, cs, half-lfe and such I have immediately learned that the mouse sensitivity setting, fov, and other settings of the user config are the most important things. You can have the cheapest mouse in the world and go pwning noobs in any fps provided you have proper settings/config, reaction time, and skill.
>>729144973Ajazz keyboards are affordable for what they are offering.China saves the day, again.
