What kind of keyboard do you use?

Logitech G710+. Love the overall feel and sound of the brown cherry keys. Not too loud, responsive and still good for general typing.

Well, when this question came up 5 years ago (see below) then I said I was really satisfied with my Razer Lycosa, that quite quickly changed though.
It had a number of software problems.
And on top of that hardware problems, it's a known issue where a connector inside the keyboard makes poor contact that makes it not register key-presses.
Which reminds me of the Razer Habu gaming mouse I used to have, started double clicking on single clicks, defective micro switches of course, but also defective software because if connected via the same USB port the system would register keyboard presses when I moved the mouse while in the BIOS/DOS.
Maybe I should just give in and kill the damn thing like the mouse, sure felt better after that
Thing is I'm not convinced I wont hate what I replace it with, I looked at a boring yet expensive Logitech keyboard for business use some years ago, but of course they had to implement something in the firmware so you can't play with it, can't register key pressed of WASD in tandem, claiming that was a hardware issue when their gaming keyboards used the exact same hardware!
One thing is for sure though: I will never buy anything with the brand Razer printed anywhere near it!!!

Same story for me too. I had a razer lycosa prior to switching to logitech I kept having to un/re plug the damn thing because the windows key, control keys and cursor up key kept either sticking or randomly registering presses all the time. I gave the thing to a charity shop in the end.

Ducky Shine 3 mechanical board w/ Cherry brown keys.

Razor BlackWidow Ultimate at home (MX Blue) and Rosewill RK9000BRI (MX Brown)

Brown are my favorite switches by far. Blue is too clacky, but still good. LOVE the Rosewill most, believe it or not.

A Razer BlackWidow Ultimate that I got off Woot... It's nice enough, however I'm convinced mechs are over rated (and over priced). I've got an old Saitek Eclipse at work (that I literally pulled out of the garbage and cleaned up) that I'm just as happy with.

Little noisy but accurate and reliable.

I bought a basic Logitech keyboard over 10 years ago for about 10 euro. Always meant to upgrade it but never needed to. However, I primarily use my PC for gaming so I prefer to use a Logitech G13 keypad. If I ever do replace the keyboard it will be with a TKL board, probably like the Roccat Rykos so I can keep the mouse closer to my body. Keyboards with numpads feel wrong.

About a year ago now, I bought a MAD CATZ Strike 5 Keyboard just because my gaming setup was colour code black and red. I love this keyboard very responsive and very nice to use, though this is my first gaming ketboard

I'm using Logitech's G910 (Orion Spark). Very solid keyboard.

I have a closet full of working keyboards. Most recent arrived today: an inexpensive Redragon Kumara 552 which is a mech....I can't believe the build quality for 40 bucks! I spent 250 on my Audioengine A2+ spkrs and another 100 on a Polk 10" subwoofer but I won't pay a lot for a keyboard. GPU, spkrs, cpu and psu I spend......keyboards and mice? not a lotta difference
