(More customer reviews)For three years I'm looking for the perfect keyboard. Finally I found it. It was a long way beginning with the IBM PS/2 Keyboard, Cherry G80, Logitech G15 and Razer Tarantula. To make a long story short:
IBM and Cherry weren't gaming keyboards. Both are only Alpha N-key rollover. That means you cannot press the 'W' + 'D' and the 'E' key at once. In the gaming scene it's called "Ghost Key Effect". Edit a file and press and hold the 'W' key, then add the 'D' until 'd' is repeated. If you then add the 'E' key, the repetition stops. The keyboard is not able to solve this problem as these keys - among others - are on the same cluster (on some Keyboards there are other combinations like W+S+D).
The Logitech was even worse! It's only called a gaming keyboard but it's only alpha N-Key rollover, needs driver to work properly and finally it has membrane Switches.
The Razer Tarantula was the first real gaming keyboard allowing full N-Key rollover. For the first time I got rid of the ghost key effect. Here you can press any key combination. But: you cannot press 10 Keys at the same time like Razer said! As it is an USB keyboard and the USB limit is 6 Keys. Ergo: only 6 Keys at the same time. But it was a huge leap from a G15 to the Tarantula. The biggest problem was that the Tarantula needed also drivers to work properly.
Finally the optimum keyboard: Steelseries 7G!
Put all you need together you get the 7G!!
The best key switches (Cherry linear MX-series switch) and a real FULL N-Key rollover! Press ALL keys at the same time ... surprise: it's there!!! NO DRIVER!! Great!!! Just plug in - and it works. No updates, no bug fixes, no incompatibility problems - just: rock solid! And it saves memory and CPU time.
The arm rest is perfectly build and the keyboard of state of the art quality.
No bling, no extras just: pure performance!
About the price:
I spent more money on the Tarantula and I regret it. This keyboard is worth its money.
