Remij 4,666 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 (edited) Got a really good deal on it. $120 when it's regular $180 here in Canada. It's got a super quick actualization point of just 1mm depression. So it's super sensitive. It uses Optical Linear switches.. which instead of using a purely mechanical switch, allows a beam of light to pass through the key when pressed which completes the circuit. They feel really nice. This is far and away the most premium keyboard I've ever owned. It also comes with a detachable USB-C cable... so now I have another one of those, which is always nice. I'm really liking it so far.... though it's Razer, so I'll likely have to buy a new one in 2 years This year I'm going to be swapping out every single component in my PC besides the PSU and my SSDs. First getting all new peripherals, and then the components as they release. Edited January 13, 2020 by Remij_ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Simply run it off the cord and its good to go, not to mention its turned on all the time. Don't even have to hold down any button to turn it on.

Mr. Impossible 407 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Lol hermits used to get upset when I would make up names for peripherals aimed at gamers but Jesus. Lol "huntsmen" like it's a fucking crossbow. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Removing the tenkey from a keyboard serves what? Trying to make space for your mouse, when your desktop should already be big enough for that already? And currently, I have my USB cord to the Elite Controller ran all the way to the back of the computer, because Microsoft provided a generously long, and very rugged tough USB cord. But I've been thinking of setting up the Steamlink to the TV, and if I do that, I'm going to want to have that same cord connect to it, so it can power the Elite Controller. In that scenario, I'd probably move the USB cord to the front of the PC. A USB ten key device would just be sitting beside your keyboard? Don't like that. I don't run my controller's cord the same way I run the keyboard's cord. When I'm done using the controller I simply place it on top of the PC itself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Regarding what removing the tenkey serves, is a smaller footprint and less redundancy...especially if you don't use the tenkey that much, or at all. If you move your regular keyboard to your center for typing the tenkey eats up a lot of space where your mouse could move. With the tenkeyless, having that extra 4'' or so makes a difference. It's provides a bigger area for your mouse than you might think at first in all honesty. Nah, for me if I got a USB tenkey, then I'd put it up beside my monitor base and only pull it down when needed. Edited January 13, 2020 by Remij_ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
