I'm strongly thinking of switching over to a mechanical keyboard... I'm using a Logitech G15 at the moment, did you find the initial switch from non-mech to mech awkward for a while, and how to brown switches compare in terms of weight to a non-mech keyboard?
Also, on a side note, how was playing with super low latency?

I think lighter keys in general are good, I went from black to red and its sick as hell! Prefer it so much

If you take gaming seriously, mechanical keyboard is almost a must imo.

Sick photo! xD~

if you use a mechanical keyboard for a day you will never want to use a membrane again

My blue keys so much. Only wish they where slightly softer sound wise on a tap :P

Blue switches are really loud.

For gaming I think red switches are generally the best choice.
I too recommend mechanical keyboards and would never turn back to membrane ones.

I bought mine here: www.cheapmechanicalkeyboard.com

Reds and browns are the best imo

I still swap between my blackwidow (cherry blues) and my current CM Storm (cherry reds) just because they both feel so good, but yea problem with blues is the loudness.

wicked pic, mechanical ftw!

using the same exact keyboard and switches too. affordable, durable and very comfortable to play on. anyone who wants a mechanical keyboard should definitely consider this

I first swapped so long ago I can't really remember! I just remember it was awesome haha! The low latency was great I felt I could handle messy situations so much easier. It was like taking training weights off and feeling faster and stronger! Definitely a good feeling, and I finally feel I'm fast enough and calm enough to take advantage of it.
