    I take it based on the one you're looking at that you're after a 'gaming' keyboard?

    I've been looking myself and, if I can resist the lures of a mechanical keyboard, I think I might go for the Corsair K50 and see how I get on with it :)

    It also looks to be roughly the same size as the G11

    I had one of the ones you linked they're ok but I found the side keys broke easy, Personally I would get a mechanical that's all I use now especially for gaming

    I used that keyboard for a while before swapping to This Logitech not that I paid £145 for it.

    The keyboard is quite some size mind. I liked the board but I would maybe save up a little and get a mechanical board. You wont look back.

    I also had to send it back for replacement a few years back due to it entering random characters but I'm sure they fixed that in a later revision.

    Just re-read the post haha my waffle wasnt needed

    I personally think the CM Trigger Z is better than the corsair. Much better features.

    Everyone SHOULD get a cougar attack - but they are like hens teeth! they were such a supreme example of a keyboard, they couldn't produce that many, due to the rare earth metals inside.

    Tell me about it mate, I've been on the lookout for another ever since!

    Some say that the rare earth metals inside are worth more than the contents of Fort Knox, and that the solder comprises 98% pure unobtainium.

    Good job, for a moment I was worried you were about to drop £60 on a shiny rubber dome keyboard, but you pulled through :D
