Mechanical keyboard
While playing spb I spilled soda all over my keyboard, I got spb'd in real life! My back up keyboard is really shitty, when i press one button it ˙sometimes disregards the other button i'm pressing, making it very clunky and ghetto for gaming. It looks like true anti ghosting may make everything more fluid. Don't really give a shit about macros, backlight or wireless. (although the solar keyboards seem cool if they can make them ergonomic).. I see they even make washable keyboards you can dunk in water now.. Red or brown switches seem like they provide the best actuation point if you type and game a lot... Anyone have any idears which ones work best? I see the prices range from 80-300.... So far Das Keyboard or Vengeance k90 look sexiest for 140

My
Steelseries 6gv2
is very nice and reliable. I have had it for about 2 years now and no signs of it giving out. hard to beat the price as well. _________________ "I tend to thougoughly enjoy my encounters significantly more with 120+ types, as I find them more stimulating. 100-110 people are okay too operating at full capacity." - Paper_Boy

any advice on affordable headsets? i bought the one that was talked about before, the um.. turtle beach piece of shit. it sounds terrible, and my 6 year old stepped on it and it fell to pieces. my $7 earbuds for my phone have more bass than that thing had, around $50? anyone?

I spilt beer on my old mechanical keyboard and it was fucked. All the keys stuck.
I spilt beer on my new mechanical keyboard and the ctrl key is fucked now. It sticks when I play. I find if I take the key off, dip my finger in water, then press the key switch a few time, it loosens it up.
I don't think there is a way to really get into the switches to fix it.
The long and short of it, once your keyboard dries your keys will function but the switches will stick. Suggest using a hair dryer on it to speed it up. _________________ I have hacks in my brain and I use them.
