I even had to resort to post on linus' forum

Its very difficult to judge without listening to them

west hornet Apr 20, 2020, 2:04 PM

you can also try reddit

rough valve Apr 20, 2020, 2:06 PM

Reddit says it doesnt have the buttons

I cant believe it doesnt have worse specs

What do you think shoukd i risk it with the lite or get the kraken x

west hornet Apr 20, 2020, 2:14 PM

I can get both

west hornet Apr 20, 2020, 2:14 PM

if you dislike heavy headphones you can go for the lite

rough valve Apr 20, 2020, 2:14 PM

#

I dont dislike them

The ones i had for my pc were heavy af but had godlike bass

west hornet Apr 20, 2020, 2:15 PM

you can go for the non lite then

Well thats unlucky.
I singed up for the mailing list to tell me when the apex pro came back in stock and apparently it did yesterday at 11 pm and I was asleep and it sold out again already

Hey anyone have any good keyboard suggestions

#

I don’t wanna spend that much on one

young crown Apr 21, 2020, 5:30 PM

check out RedDragon, they make good budget peripherals.

#

if youre going for very cheap, i highly recommend this (its $20 when its in stock) https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-MK270-Wireless-Keyboard-Mouse/dp/B079JLY5M5/ref=sr_1_8?dchild=1&keywords=logitech+keyboard+and+mouse&qid=1587490275&sr=8-8

slate cosmos Apr 21, 2020, 5:32 PM

I’m going for a Logitech g203 prodigy mouse

Figured a better mouse is probably worth a little more than keyboard

logitech makes pretty decent mice

slate cosmos Apr 21, 2020, 5:33 PM

#

How do I know which switch type I need

tranquil cliff Apr 21, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

the biggest why to tell if you prefer cherry or brown is going someplace that offers a lot of choices and getting a feel for those. some people will tell you avoid this and always choose that but its up to the user what you like

cyan basalt Apr 21, 2020, 5:36 PM

#

Yeah, go into your local computer store and try them out, that'll probably be the easiest way to tell

#

I wish they had headphones out on display like they do in Japan FeelsBadMan

slate cosmos Apr 21, 2020, 5:37 PM

#

Cuz going into a store and touching things is the best way to stay safe right

cyan basalt Apr 21, 2020, 5:37 PM

#

lol

#

That's true

slate cosmos Apr 21, 2020, 5:37 PM

#

😛

tranquil cliff Apr 21, 2020, 5:37 PM

#

however thats the only way to tell between switches

cyan basalt Apr 21, 2020, 5:37 PM

#

Brown switches are a mix of blue and red, so you can't really go wrong with that

#

Blue is good for typing

#

Red is good for gaming

#

And there are like a million other types too LOL

slate cosmos Apr 21, 2020, 5:37 PM

Great

Not one thing can be easy

tranquil cliff Apr 21, 2020, 5:38 PM

just wear gloves and a mask

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

Brown is good for typing and gaming :D
but it's all your preference

tranquil cliff Apr 21, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

its about the sound and feel

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

Brown and Blue has a click when you press down on it

#

Reds are linear and there's no tactile click

tranquil cliff Apr 21, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

if you want your discord to hear you click clack and have a hard stiffness or no noise and soft press

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

Wellll

I have blues

#

and my mic doesn't pick it up

tranquil cliff Apr 21, 2020, 5:39 PM

good mic then

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

and someone else with the same exact keyboard has it clacking all the time on discord

slate cosmos Apr 21, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

I don’t want it to be loud but I like some feedback

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

it depends on your mic to pick it up

tranquil cliff Apr 21, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

plus discord noise suppression is helping a lot

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:39 PM

I'd suggest browns then

Blues are quite loud

Wait, what's your budget for a keyboard?

I meannn corsair k95 is like 200$ lol

i use the K55 RGB and its $50 with 6 macros and changeable rgb lighting

Browns are tactile, blues are tactile + audible click

I don’t feel like I really need the numpad tho

What’s the 6 macro thing mean

tranquil cliff Apr 21, 2020, 5:43 PM

But if their super picky I’d switch to Mx Silent

tranquil cliff Apr 21, 2020, 5:50 PM

if you play spacebar wasd and maybe a couple extra buttons most keyboards dont make much sound

its actually typing it when most sound is made

Ok I’ll consider the k70 but if anyone has other brown switch boards that are cheaper that’d be cool

calm cobalt Apr 21, 2020, 5:50 PM

Hmm with Corsair you get the most customization and its super nice

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:51 PM

Cherry MX Browns are ideal

Yea

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:52 PM

#

That's the one good other brown switch I suggest

the rest are wacky

slate cosmos Apr 21, 2020, 5:52 PM

#

So complicated

shut oyster Apr 21, 2020, 5:52 PM

#

they are more smooth

calm cobalt Apr 21, 2020, 5:52 PM

#

Gateron is overlooked because of Mx

#

My opinion

#

I rarely hear about them

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:52 PM

#

Okay lemme just lay it out like this.
Switches are based off color, Cherry made them first, so theres ther cherry MX blues, MX browns, etc.

calm cobalt Apr 21, 2020, 5:53 PM

#

And my spelling is awful

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:53 PM

#

Then other manufacturers started making them, like gateron, but they usually dont make as good a switch as cherry

calm cobalt Apr 21, 2020, 5:53 PM

#

Cherry is something else

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:53 PM

#

Right now you seem to like the brown switches.

shut oyster Apr 21, 2020, 5:54 PM

#

i personally have razer purples

calm cobalt Apr 21, 2020, 5:54 PM

#

Oh yea with Best Buy the Strafe mk.2 is on sale 50 dollars off making it 100 so it’s an amazing deal rn tbh

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:54 PM

#

So the options are Cherry and others. I suggest Cherry Mx browns, or Gateron browns.

slate cosmos Apr 21, 2020, 5:54 PM

#

Ok I’ll filter by those

calm cobalt Apr 21, 2020, 5:54 PM

#

Browns, or silent

#

Either one is really good

shut oyster Apr 21, 2020, 5:54 PM

#

ya

calm cobalt Apr 21, 2020, 5:54 PM

#

Difference is the browns are slightly louder tbh

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:55 PM

#

I mean, if the switches make a click, it makes a small sound

calm cobalt Apr 21, 2020, 5:55 PM

#

I’ve used both and noticed no big differences

#

I had blues

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:55 PM

#

I have really loud blues

calm cobalt Apr 21, 2020, 5:55 PM

#

My mom kicked me out the house until I came back with a new one

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:55 PM

#

I know someone with cherry brown switches and their keyboard is quite a lot quieter

#

Might be because I got a cheapo blue knockoff, but still

shut oyster Apr 21, 2020, 5:55 PM

#

my razer purples are really loud

slate cosmos Apr 21, 2020, 5:55 PM

#

I play a lot of FPS games, I will likely be typing a lot, I don’t wanna annoy another person in the room, and I like having a little feedback from the keys

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:56 PM

#

Browns are just good for that

slate cosmos Apr 21, 2020, 5:56 PM

#

Ok

calm cobalt Apr 21, 2020, 5:56 PM

#

Yea Atlas browns and silent

slate cosmos Apr 21, 2020, 5:56 PM

#

So that’s settled

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:56 PM

#

I'm in the same situation, and that's my plan for the future.

calm cobalt Apr 21, 2020, 5:56 PM

#

Anything else will make it sound like your committing war crimes

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:57 PM

My plan is to get one of these without the switches, and add in cherry browns I buy off somewhere else.

Btw is it ironic that I learned how to type from playing Minecraft as a lil kid and raging in chat from pvp

#

I type at 135 WPM

slate cosmos Apr 21, 2020, 5:59 PM

#

Hahah like same

#

It was Minecraft and getting as toxic as possible in overwatch

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 5:59 PM

#

huh

#

I type at like 100 120 wpm

slate cosmos Apr 21, 2020, 6:00 PM

#

Toms hardware: good website or bad

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 6:01 PM

#

Good I'd say

#

I use it to look at reviews

slate cosmos Apr 21, 2020, 6:02 PM

#

Steel series apex 3?

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 6:03 PM

#

It's got weird switches

#

seems proprietary

warm plaza Apr 21, 2020, 7:51 PM

#

i type at like 70 but i'm still one of the most seasoned typists in my school

#

also i'm pretty sure the apex 3 and pro both use hall effect switches (google it) and although the keycap mount might be proprietary, the switches are actually very dated and well-regarded technology

thorny aspen Apr 21, 2020, 8:05 PM

#

Any good cherry Mx red keyboard for under 50?

warm plaza Apr 21, 2020, 8:06 PM

#

corsair k63

#

doesn't fall below 50 often but sometimes it'll even get as low as 45

thorny aspen Apr 21, 2020, 8:08 PM

#

Ok cool

#

Got it I’ll keep an eye on it

daring zenith Apr 21, 2020, 8:08 PM

#

I type at near 100wpm, not great, not bad

calm cobalt Apr 21, 2020, 8:09 PM

#

I mean

#

If you wanna type fast

#

A keyboard will help

#

#

There’s this ergo keyboard

devout fiber Apr 21, 2020, 8:10 PM

Bruh you guys type fast

I tpye at like 55-65wpm

calm cobalt Apr 21, 2020, 8:11 PM

#

I can type 200 WPM on my phone if I try

devout fiber Apr 21, 2020, 8:12 PM

#

Yeah I type faster on my phone

#

Nowhere near 200wpm though

cursive marsh Apr 21, 2020, 8:28 PM

#

Minecraft chat is the only typing practice

warm plaza Apr 21, 2020, 9:00 PM

#

i hate ergo keyboards

#

i can't touch-type, so i can't use them properly

toxic scroll Apr 22, 2020, 9:01 PM

#

Am I the only one who prefers a lowkey keyboard?

weak crater Apr 22, 2020, 9:31 PM

#

I think so, yea.

jovial scaffold Apr 22, 2020, 10:42 PM

#

Wdym by lowkey?

cursive marsh Apr 23, 2020, 4:13 AM

#

The keys all fall on the floor

#

Thus low key

daring zenith Apr 23, 2020, 4:13 AM

#

yes

amber oracle Apr 23, 2020, 4:20 AM

#

@jovial scaffold lowkey = low height keycaps

#

for a fairly extreme example, think macbook

cursive marsh Apr 23, 2020, 4:21 AM

#

Do Lenovo keyboards count as low

west hornet Apr 23, 2020, 4:22 AM

#

I think they call the laptop style keys chiclet

amber oracle Apr 23, 2020, 4:28 AM

#

chiclet is the actual name for the style @west hornet but it is not a name that makes "sense" for people that dont know it

#

and if we are being technical about it, chiclet is a specific "type" of keys, generally used on laptops

daring zenith Apr 23, 2020, 4:30 AM

#

Switches or keys?
Heck, is there a difference between switches and keys?

amber oracle Apr 23, 2020, 4:31 AM

#

yes

#

(you figure out what that applies to :P)

daring zenith Apr 23, 2020, 4:32 AM

#

(when it comes to laptops, idek if there's a switch, if the whole thing is one thing if you know what I mean)

amber oracle Apr 23, 2020, 4:32 AM

#

there can be a switch

#

macbooks come to mind again, with their butterfly switches

#

https://images.anandtech.com/doci/9136/Switch.jpg

#

thats from back in 2015

west hornet Apr 23, 2020, 4:39 AM

#

yup

#

butterfly switches feel weird, putting aside them failing I'm still not sure whether I liked them or not

cursive marsh Apr 23, 2020, 4:41 AM

#

Does that use a single piece plastic lever?

#

The middle portion of the butterfly mechanism

amber oracle Apr 23, 2020, 4:41 AM

#

i honestly cannot remember the complete breakdown

#

but i know there are mechnical drawings around of the switch

#

so, just google that

shut valve Apr 23, 2020, 5:11 AM

anyone know what USB adapter I can buy to connect to a mini SSD Drive. I need to get the files off of it

what gaming mouse would you recommend?

My masterkeys lite l mouse is broken

#

the keyboard is really nice

#

Not the mouse that much

jovial scaffold Apr 23, 2020, 4:05 PM

#

G pro wireless or G502 hero

daring zenith Apr 23, 2020, 4:11 PM

#

G pro wireless for no budget

#

G502 for cheaper

#

Model O iirc is good too

cloud ridge Apr 23, 2020, 5:14 PM

#

Best bluetooth headphones with 7.1 and decent bass under $100 that dont look dumb

west hornet Apr 23, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

with budget I wouldn't recommend wireless, bluetooth has lag, any surround in headphones is trash. stereo is best

#

maybe something from akg if you want bass?

#

actually I hear these are pretty good, right at 100 https://drop.com/buy/massdrop-x-sennheiser-pc37x-gaming-headset

i really want the razer kraken x

I really wish there was a good option for wireless open-back headphones.

brisk parcel Apr 24, 2020, 12:13 AM

#

okay gamers I'm looking for a new headset, I need one with a mic but also has good quality for music too, I actually prefer music quality since i'm a pretty casual gamer. I have the Cloud 2s now but I want to step up in audio quality. I have a sound blasterx G6 as my sound card as well

#

budget is probably $100-$150ish

#

I heard the PC37Xs are good but I want opinions, feel free to @ me

there are about a thousand different models on the market

i couldnt find the actual one, it was removed from amazon apparently. but the model number is 5YZD.168

you are connecting both usb plugs right?

I'm thinking it's the hard drive, making weird noises, then again I haven't ran a hard drive out of a computer. And yes both USBs

harddrive = dead

calm cobalt Apr 24, 2020, 8:45 PM

#

Ahhh

#

K, thanks

#

And here I was thinking I bought another bad item from amazon

#

Can I fix it or would it be better to get a new hard drive

amber oracle Apr 24, 2020, 8:54 PM

#

nothing for you to fix as such

#

the time you would need to (most likely) invest in it, makes it so that it is just way cheaper to buy a new drive

calm cobalt Apr 24, 2020, 8:55 PM

#

Ok

#

I was planning on buying one eventually originally, just hoped I could save some money

gusty delta Apr 25, 2020, 3:02 AM

@calm cobalt go with an SSD

Hard drives are not as durable

It doesn't work on my pc

#

It's recognised but it's not working

#

I'm using it on an old machine

#

Talking about 10 years old

#

I am using a linq d27 (i don't have money for something better) and its not working on this machine

#

But it usually works with other machines

#

That uses the same 1.0 USB reader

#

But the connector of the mouse is 2.0

#

What should I do?

amber oracle Apr 25, 2020, 9:13 PM

#

might not be getting enough power

#

because different adherence to usb spec on that old machine

#

try and plug it directly instead of through a hub

toxic scroll Apr 25, 2020, 9:14 PM

#

I'm not using a hub

amber oracle Apr 25, 2020, 9:15 PM

#

ah, i thought your reader was a combo hub, because it didnt logically make sense that you would mention it otherwise

toxic scroll Apr 25, 2020, 9:15 PM

#

No, I mention it like that way because I don't k ow how to call it otherwise

amber oracle Apr 25, 2020, 9:16 PM

then keep on speaking, because it still doesnt make much sense :)

toxic scroll Apr 25, 2020, 9:16 PM

#

Sennheiser GAME ONE

west hornet Apr 28, 2020, 1:16 PM

#

sennheiser pc37x is also good

brisk parcel Apr 28, 2020, 3:07 PM

#

so i'm looking to actually get a proper headset and mic setup. right now I just have my cloud 2s hooked up to my G6, but the mic cable is starting to go, so I'm gonna get an actual mic instead. I'm thinking about using the massdrop x sennheiser HD6XX and then getting a blue snowball iCE with a stand and pop filter, etc. what do you all think? I wanna hear your suggestions. feel free to @ me if I don't get back to you, I have a habit of just not checking back lmao

#

@autumn shard I would recommend the pc37x over the game one, open-back headphones are a total game changer

#

although they do leak sound, they'll have better positional audio than any surround can produce

autumn shard Apr 28, 2020, 3:09 PM

#

nice, i'll look into those later

amber oracle Apr 28, 2020, 3:10 PM

also, have a serious look at EposVox on youtube for gear reviews by someone that is not a raving lunatic :)

yeah i thought that was you lmao

#

I was a little unsure about using the G6 with the HD6XX tbh, they can drive 600 ohms but they are an AMP/DAC combo

amber oracle Apr 28, 2020, 3:12 PM

#

when not at the actual amp here, i use a centrance dacport slim for my 990's

timid field Apr 28, 2020, 3:12 PM

So I know jack about headphones but I want a new pair of closed back headphones for about 200$. Preferably nothing “gamer”. I hope y’all help me

brisk parcel Apr 28, 2020, 3:12 PM

I have a scarlett solo as well, so i'll test them out on both when I actually get those things lmao

west hornet Apr 28, 2020, 3:13 PM

#

they work better with 1/4" than 3.5mm I believe

brisk parcel Apr 28, 2020, 3:13 PM

#

I wouldn't doubt it honestly

#

they're basically a cheaper 650

amber oracle Apr 28, 2020, 3:13 PM

#

@timid field you are both in luck and out of luck

#

in luck because you have all the time in the world to talk about it

#

out of luck, because you cannot actually go and try on cans

west hornet Apr 28, 2020, 3:14 PM

#

trying on in person is best

brisk parcel Apr 28, 2020, 3:14 PM

#

but the fact that the G6 can drive 600 ohms is really good, I know they'll have plenty of power at least

#

and yeah, they're right

timid field Apr 28, 2020, 3:14 PM

#

Welp that ain’t happening for a while

amber oracle Apr 28, 2020, 3:14 PM

Come back for advice then

amber oracle Apr 28, 2020, 3:15 PM

#

what do you have "now" @timid field ?

brisk parcel Apr 28, 2020, 3:15 PM

#

what you could do is possibly look at a few recommendations, get them on amazon and try them out for 30 days, you can return them all and get which one you like best

timid field Apr 28, 2020, 3:16 PM

#

I had a pair of skullcandy hesh 2 wireless

west hornet Apr 28, 2020, 3:16 PM

for the time being you can look up headphones for your price range that are closed back, and where you can go to possibly try them on

they have a tendency to be around 60-ish

brisk parcel Apr 28, 2020, 3:17 PM

he's got a point lmao, but if your budget is really around $200 i would go all the way

amber oracle Apr 28, 2020, 3:17 PM

#

and yes, that might not sound fantastic, but it will give you something that doesnt make you dread putting them on

#

"not sound fantastic" VS buying a pair of 200 cans

brisk parcel Apr 28, 2020, 3:17 PM

#

give open backs a try if you haven't already, they're a completely different experience

amber oracle Apr 28, 2020, 3:18 PM

#

they will sound like heaven vs the Skullcandy ones

brisk parcel Apr 28, 2020, 3:18 PM

#

don't buy them yourself, but when you can go to a place where you can try them

timid field Apr 28, 2020, 3:18 PM

#

The only reason I use headphones is to drown out the sounds of my family

and yeah, they will, skullcandy isn't the best lmao

i know they sell their triple drivers for around $200 I think, you'll love those if you wanna spend the money

good iem's can be really good

brisk parcel Apr 28, 2020, 3:20 PM

brisk parcel Apr 28, 2020, 3:20 PM

but the quad driver earbuds sound better than the TD headphones IMO

yeah they can get uncomfortable after like 4 hours but they also come with a crap ton of different ear pieces to try

but it sends the signal at the same place

might make it so that i can't click as fast

@hallow basalt
You can get a k95 platinum for about $100 on ebay (used with cherry mx speed)
There are cheaper, also rgb options with corsair if you don't need macros, a numberpad, or per key rgb
I think Razer makes sone pretty nice ones too.
It's hard to tell you what to buy. Switch preference is a personal thing, thought cherry mx are standards. I would just decide what features you want, and look for a deal on one.

I'd recommend you check out the k95 platinum on ebay if you want all the features. I'm a fan of corsair support amd say it has some good value. Otherwise, look at razer's lineup, maybe an rog board and find a deal

hallow basalt May 3, 2020, 9:47 PM

Could someone help me pick out a new router? My current one is running slow and considering the times, we want it to run fast. However, I have no idea what to look for as in compatibility so could someone help

young vine May 6, 2020, 8:19 PM

#

what is your current internet speed cap

wanton wagon May 6, 2020, 8:22 PM

#

like 30 mbps

#

and only reaches 2 floors

#

out of 4

west hornet May 6, 2020, 8:25 PM

#

a mesh network would probably be a good bet to reach 4 floors, but the ones i've seen are expensive. you don't really need a expensive router for 30mbps

wanton wagon May 6, 2020, 8:25 PM

#

Oh sorry no thats what I gte rn, not the limit

west hornet May 6, 2020, 8:26 PM

#

oh what's your limit then

#

what speed do you pay for

wanton wagon May 6, 2020, 8:27 PM

#

100

#

and I get more like 20 actually

#

Im not worried about buying one, I have one in mind. Its the setting up I dont understand

#

Although idk if the one ive picked is good

west hornet May 6, 2020, 8:28 PM

what did you have in mind

#

THe main reason is on the forums for my wifi company someone said they used this and it works

#

The only requirement I see for it is "supports DHCP Option 61 on WAN"

west hornet May 6, 2020, 8:32 PM

#

I don't know much bout routers, but i'd say just make sure this has the range you need. if it doesn't you might want to look into mesh wifi systems

wanton wagon May 6, 2020, 8:33 PM

straight, no bump, no tactile feel just straight down to the bottom

Guys I need help, blackwidow chroma v2 vs k70 lux RGB (red cherries vs green razer) also have an option of the k70mk2 brown switch. Which one ? Help plz

daring zenith May 7, 2020, 1:09 AM

#

Depends on personal preference

#

I like brown switches

#

So basically, Razer has green (Cherry MX blue clone), K70 has either reds or browns

storm heath May 7, 2020, 1:11 AM

#

Fair enough but what about the other features and like build quality

daring zenith May 7, 2020, 1:11 AM

#

I like Corsair better

storm heath May 7, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

Fair enough

daring zenith May 7, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

Razer software I've heard is absolute crap

storm heath May 7, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

Really?

daring zenith May 7, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

That's what I've heard, for mouses at least

storm heath May 7, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

Apparently synapse is lit af

daring zenith May 7, 2020, 1:13 AM

#

heh, I guess friend didn't think so

#

But I would go for k70 browns

storm heath May 7, 2020, 1:13 AM

#

Fair enough thank tou6

daring zenith May 7, 2020, 1:13 AM

#

those are all different switches, so it depends on which switch you like using

#

Cherry Blues have a tactile feel, but are quite loud.
Cherry browns have a tactile feel, but are quieter than Blues,

#

Cherry reds are linear, no tactile feel, but no sound until you bottom out.

#

The razer keyboard has a cherry blue clone as far as I can tell

west hornet May 7, 2020, 1:26 AM

#

I mean rgb software is buggy, i hadn't had a major issue with synapse yet

daring zenith May 7, 2020, 1:57 AM

#

My friend said it was buggy and couldn't assign buttons correctly on their mouse

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

jovial scaffold May 7, 2020, 2:17 AM

Ik this was a while ago but linear all the way

muted vector May 7, 2020, 2:21 AM

#

what is the deference in keyboard between like blue/red/silent/ the other colors

daring zenith May 7, 2020, 2:22 AM

#

@muted vector Theres basically 3 large categories for mechanical keyboards, Clicky tactile, tactile, and linear. And after that, all the switches under each category are pretty close with little differences.

tight pulsar May 7, 2020, 2:23 AM

#

silent are quieter

muted vector May 7, 2020, 2:24 AM

#

that makes sense nuclear. but oo ok. are mechanical keyboards better? and which is quieter. my friend has one but its really loud and i want quietr

daring zenith May 7, 2020, 2:31 AM

#

Blues are clicky tactile, browns are tactile, reds are linear.

jovial scaffold May 7, 2020, 2:31 AM

#

Linear switches tend to he quieter but they also make specifically quiet switches like silent red for example

daring zenith May 7, 2020, 2:32 AM

#

@muted vector Blues are loud, browns make a decent amount of sound, and reds make little sound.

#

Yea silents are quietest

muted vector May 7, 2020, 2:32 AM

#

oo ok thanks

jovial scaffold May 7, 2020, 2:40 AM

My omnipoint switches sound amazing imo. If anyone wants ill video it tmr

but i'm looking for other peoples opinions\

also

#

what are the best kind of switches 🙂

jovial scaffold May 8, 2020, 1:55 AM

#

I dont have a answer to the wireless keyboard thing but switches are all preferences

#

They're either linear, tactile, or clicky

#

Theres no "best"

real galleon May 8, 2020, 1:56 AM

#

dang

jovial scaffold May 8, 2020, 1:56 AM

#

Are you planning to game on it

real galleon May 8, 2020, 1:56 AM

#

nah its a productivity thing

#

but I might switch it over to gaming if i feel like it

jovial scaffold May 8, 2020, 1:57 AM

#

Ok then you dont need speed switches or anything

#

Reds are a solid starting ground

#

Do you want a loud keybaord?

real galleon May 8, 2020, 1:57 AM

#

MM

#

I haven't decided

#

Gatreon or optical switches

jovial scaffold May 8, 2020, 1:58 AM

#

Wdym by optical switches

real galleon May 8, 2020, 1:58 AM

#

well im on the k4 website rn

#

and the options

#

are optical switches vs gatreon

tight pulsar May 8, 2020, 1:59 AM

#

pretty sure gateron also makes the optical switches

jovial scaffold May 8, 2020, 1:59 AM

#

Hm I see, I'm not rly certain what they mean by optical switches there

tight pulsar May 8, 2020, 1:59 AM

#

but i'd go gateron tbh

jovial scaffold May 8, 2020, 2:00 AM

#

I'd agree with nachos

#

Gaterons are good

real galleon May 8, 2020, 2:00 AM

#

Okay cool cool

#

I'm kind of going for a productivity typing experience

#

like the kind where it feels like I'm actually working

tight pulsar May 8, 2020, 2:00 AM

#

probably browns

real galleon May 8, 2020, 2:00 AM

#

browns are silent right?

#

i kinda want a little more than that

tight pulsar May 8, 2020, 2:01 AM

#

silent no, non clicky yes

real galleon May 8, 2020, 2:01 AM

#

but not crazy like my razer huntsman lol

jovial scaffold May 8, 2020, 2:01 AM

#

Not rly silent just not clicky

real galleon May 8, 2020, 2:01 AM

my razer hunts man has the loudest option lmao

jovial scaffold May 8, 2020, 2:01 AM

You'll still hear em thats for sure

jovial scaffold May 8, 2020, 2:02 AM

I personally don't lol. It drives me crazy after a while

real galleon May 8, 2020, 2:02 AM

#

its just for a productibity set up lol

jovial scaffold May 8, 2020, 2:02 AM

#

I would go with browns or reds

real galleon May 8, 2020, 2:02 AM

#

im thinking red's

#

i kinda want clicky

jovial scaffold May 8, 2020, 2:02 AM

#

Reds aren't clicky

real galleon May 8, 2020, 2:02 AM

#

its supposed to be a mechanical keybord lol

tight pulsar May 8, 2020, 2:02 AM

#

reds are linear

real galleon May 8, 2020, 2:02 AM

#

probably brown then right

tight pulsar May 8, 2020, 2:02 AM

#

blues are clicky

real galleon May 8, 2020, 2:03 AM

#

if I want the best mechanical keyboard experience what do you suggest

jovial scaffold May 8, 2020, 2:03 AM

#

But just because its not clicky doesn't mean it doesn't sound mechanical

west hornet May 8, 2020, 2:05 AM

for razer it's like razer yellow is linear, orange is tactile, green is clicky

real galleon May 8, 2020, 2:05 AM
