How many keys does your ideal keyboard haveWhat's your favorite layout?
80% since I have an mmo mouse with 16 buttons on the side
>>729853236Full numpad for buy binds and the rest for various lennybinds. 7 btw
75%.Honestly, the far bigger deal to me than TKL vs numpad (anything without number or F keys can not be considered a fucking keyboard, that's a macro pad), is modifier layout. I absolutely despise the 3/4 mod layout found on every fucking keyboard. 4/4 should be the minimum, 4/5 is good, 5/5 is great. Additional keys below the space is even better.
>>72985323665% keyboard and a separate numpad off to the side and out of the way
Pretty soon 75% will be the only thing they make and they'll sell arrow keys and numpads as separate DLCsI hate the antichrist
>>729853236100%. No compromises>b-b-but I don't nee-No. Compromises.
>americans even circumcise their keyboardsWhat the hell is wrong with you
>>729853236Imagine showing this image to someone in the late 90s, what he would think about our society?
>>729853236only use 100% but the 80% one looks usable.
>>729853236I use two different 75%s (personal+work) but some keys are slightly different to each other and it's kind of annoying. Maybe I would prefer two 80%s since they are a lot more consistent.
>>729853692You need at most a 80% keyboard because everyone plays better with the keyboard at 45 degrees, and a 100% keyboard is too big to play with at 45 degrees
>>72985323675 is lowest I'm willing to go
>>729853236the ones with extra programmable keys
>>729853859>You need at most a 80%I need at MINIMUM a 100% keyboard.
>>729853692I actually like the 75% arrow layout more than 100%. You get a nice cluster of keys, it lets me play RPGs one handed. If I need a numpad I can plug one in, I use mine maybe twice a year.
>>729853742He would say>You people still use PNGs? 30 years later?
>>729853236I need the numpad to play roguelikes so probably 96% minimum.
I need the full layout plus media keys. volume up and down is essential
>>72985323665% is all I need
>>729853978>volume up and down is essentialAs someone who has had volume up/down mapped to my mouse scroll for the past 15 years, and before that had a keyboard with a wheel in the wrist rest, modern volume solutions are fucking atrocious. Ah yes, let me just reach over and use a knob where print screen should be, or use a fucking layer and tap keys like a mongoloid for 5% increments. I'd never go back to having volume control on the keyboard.
>>729854245>use a fucking layer and tap keys like a mongoloid for 5% incrementsBut it just works if you hold the keys downLike I use Fn+Up/Dn for volume up/down and it rapidly goes in 2% increments if I hold the keys down
>>729854331But I can just scroll up or down instantly to the correct value. You understand that a dial is vastly superior over 2 buttons, right?
If you're not 100%, you're faglord.
Sub 100 = Tranny.
>>72985323660% width but with full F-key rowRight shift key is fucked on this one but unfortunately there isnt a lot of competition at this width
it's extremely frustrating that there's only one keyboard I can find with a ibm 101 key layout and trying to see if others exist just gets me "keyboard 101" articles or some 98% tranny shit. it's even more frustrating that no one else seems to understand why I want one or thinks that it's stupid. no you're stupid.
>>729853236100% with macro buttons and an audio scroller.
You're not white of you can't use a numpad.
>>729853236My ideal is the full 100% 104-key keyboardI am currently using an 80% compact keyboard and I hate it. I miss having a number block. I hate having to use alt function keybinds to use the same keys full keyboards just have direct access to. The only thing I like about this compact format is that it's easy for your right hand to reach the arrow keys, that's the one upside if you have enough desk space to accommodate a larger keyboard anyway
i need 100 woth numpad AND another row of programmable buttons either on top or the left sideholy shit, newfag captcha learned how to triforce
>>729853236all of themand no function keys
>>729855058based
>>729853236100% full size, why would I want less keys on my keyboard?
>>72985323660% keyboards are actually closer to 59% (61/104≈0.587), meaning 41% of the keys are missing. If you use one, you are mathematically proven to be a tranny, as if cutting off functioning parts of a keyboard for "aesthetic" reasons wasn't enough proof.
I hate when mechanical keyboard trannies try to tell me I don't need a numpad
>>729853236120%
>>729855195bullshit there is no triforce captcha
>>729853236>What's your favorite layout?TKL. It's the perfect middle ground for me to have enough mouse space for shooters while keeping Fkeys and the navigation cluster available for productivity.
>>72985323696 or 80. Also keyboards are not for gaming, controllers are.
Why are prebuilts with LED lights cheaper
>>729856890volume
>>729856286This.
>>729853236ive used a 60% for years. a 65% wouldnt be to bad either. the extra space on my desk allows me to hold the mouse in a more comfortable position. I dont need to have my arm stretched out so there is enough room to turn left without hitting the keyboard.
>>729853236Non row-staggered keyboards are the only thing that matters. Everything else is the same shit, not worth discussing.
we should be able to add daughter-boards and other customizable boards. Keyboards should have no upper bounds.
>>729853236100 keys is the lowest I could go. I sometimes miss having a dedicated END key, but it's alright.
let me guess, you need more
>>729858226That doesn't sound alright at all thoughever.
>>729853236Anything less than 100% is e-waste.
>>729858194this but just so i can have a bunch of analog inputs (like knobs and such) and physical multi-position switches without plugging in my HOTAS
>>729858273Yes I also want my keyboard to look like more than an old trinket on a cluttered shelf
>>729853236104. No more, no fewer.
>>729853236I was using ten keyless for a while but I actually missed having the numpad for certain games so I just got a full keyboard again.
>>729853236100% because that is what i have used for over 20 years
>>729853692Same. I actually use the ten key when using excel or the calculator. Could I get by without it? Sure. But, why have less than what I want? I will not budge.
>>729853236I'm quite partial to the Tenkeyless boards, but I've grown to use the full 100% keyboards with time.
>>729858405here's my room btw
I cannot use a keyboard without a numpad.For me, it's the k120.
>>72985323680% is the lowest I'll go.
>>729858292I was in the market for a compact 100-key with an END key included at the time, and didn't find any. My biggest complaint with compact keyboards is their compromised touch-type usability. Retards gamers forgot why certain groups of keys have distinct spaces in them, especially the function keys. I literally have to add some tactile bump to the function keys so I can press them without looking down.tl;dr I fell for the compact meme and should have gone with full mechanical keyboards.
>>729853692Based and correct.
What use does the fn key have? I have a Logitech G213 that doesn't have an fn key, only two windows keys
>>729853236Anything without Function keys and a numpad is trannycore shit.
>>729853236Over 100% for me
>All this talk of desk space being an issue Clean up your ducking desks you slobs or get an actual desk instead of oversized bar stool
>>729858878I don't care about the F key spacing, I'd much rather have the 2 extra keys you can fit on the layout without it.
>>729853236Under 100% = circumsized keyboard.
>>729853236100% because I am not a faggot
>>729853236Full sized with extra 12 keys for keyboard macros, music volume control a rotating input device and a mute button. Keep your circumcised keyboards away from me, you disgusting freaks.
>>729853236do they make any 100%s with the 10 key on the left side? like for more mouse space
I think this meme is being perpetuated by jew companies trying to sell you less for more
Do you guys not actually make use of things like the numpad for typing numbers, or the Home/End/PgUp/PgDn buttons to scroll quickly?
120% I want numpads on both sides of the keyboard with MX Speed Silver switches in the numpads and blues in the typing part.
>>729853236This but with swappable keys and a better media setup.
>>729861336smaller keyboards are cheaper go fetch me a pail of water
>>729861492They aren't though. They are cheaper to make, not to buy.
>>729861398why are you moving your left hand to the other side of the keyboard or taking your right hand off the mouse when you could just move your mouse to the scroll bar
>>729861521not at feature parityyour poverty office garbage isn't in fact comparable to a mechanical keyboard
You fags know the next big thing will be to do away with keyboards entirely and just force you to use your phone as a keyboard like a retarded zoomer.
>>729861620the next big thing will be dactyls hitting the mainstream once normies realise how shit the regular keyboard shape is
>>729858732I wish I could have a room like that because it would mean I have money.
>>729861527Why would you need your other hand on the left side of the keyboard if you're using the mouse? It's not like you're typing anything, so it's free to move over to the scroll keys. Conversely, if you ARE typing something, why would your other hand be on the mouse? You've got the whole right side of the keyboard at your fingertips These keys are accessible for basically everything that isn't gaming (where you are using the left side and the mouse), and isn't the freedom to do things that aren't just gaming one of the main benefits of having a PC in the first place?
>>729861713No, it will be a subscription based app that is just a bluetooth connection between your phone and PC that makes you use the phone to type. The next version of windows and apple will both drop support for keyboards entirely for these propriety apps. Additionally, the very option for usb and other physical inputs will be phased out of hardware and the OS itself to force you into it. They will do the same for mice. Calling it now.
>>729858732Redragon sells 105% keyboards for 26 dollars. That there is trannicore
>>729853236120+ and i am not negotiating. Fucking hate keyboards for ants.
>>729853236If you use anything but 100% you need to kill yourself.
