Tte Jeff Posted July 10, 2014 Report Posted July 10, 2014 What's your preferred switch for keyboards: Membrane, Plunger, Mechanical? Does back-lighting affect your choice in keyboard? If so, is it just to have back-lit keys, or are multiple colors/patterns a must have ? ThermalMike 1 Quote
KayZeR Posted July 19, 2014 Report Posted July 19, 2014 Mechanical. black cherry i have a tt esport meka keyboard and i like :3 Quote
Tte Martin Posted July 19, 2014 Report Posted July 19, 2014 Have been using a fully back-lit rubber dome keyboard for the past 8 years and got used to the lighting. I recently damaged the keyboard while cleaning it (connected it to the PC while there was still water in it ) and since then I have been testing the Cherry-MX black a bit. The Tt eSPORTS Certified blue switches from the Poseidon Z have a nice feel but I am personally not a fan of the clicky sound. Maybe I should try reds at some point. Quote
Tte Jeff Posted July 21, 2014 Author Report Posted July 21, 2014 I stick with Tt eSPORTS certified mechanical brown switches. Got a nice feel, and doesn't disturb office-mates around me as the blues would. Lighting is fun, but not necessarily needed - I don't need to look at the keyboard, however some lighting in dark environments is very nice. Quote
HuGo_0 Posted July 23, 2014 Report Posted July 23, 2014 I prefer the Brown switches, i like were the activation point is on the brown switches for gaming, you can kinda hover on it with little preasure good for fast movement. Tte Jeff 1 Quote
ThermalMike Posted July 28, 2014 Report Posted July 28, 2014 Tried several over the years, my new love is Tt Certified Brown Switches on the Poseidon Z. Brown is not clickly like the Blue switch model so it is really up to the user on what they perfer. I did a overview video on the Poseidon Z (Blue/Brown) a while back, if you want to hear the difference before you buy, you gotta check this out! HuGo_0 and Tt Kenny 2 Quote
Vapor-X Posted July 29, 2014 Report Posted July 29, 2014 I use a Poseidon with Blue switches for all my demo systems as well as my personal gaming system. I love the feel and the backlighting is perfect for my late night, dark room, gaming sessions. As if being a great keyboard was not enough it is also reasonably priced. Tte Jeff 1 Quote
Tte Jeremy Posted July 29, 2014 Report Posted July 29, 2014 Tt Certified Brown Switches are my top choice when I'm gaming. I love the feel - and it doesn't wake the girlfriend up when I'm having a late night gaming session. Tte Jeff and HuGo_0 2 Quote

HappyBuddhaman Posted October 30, 2014 Report Posted October 30, 2014 The Blacks on mine are great, noise doesn't bother me, and illumination is a MUST, but last on the list.1 - Quality2 - Features3 - Switch type4 - IlluminationI'll probably never go back to membrane. Now if we can just get all that, with a PS/2 connection instead of a USB. Quote
