It does seem that red switches are the most expensive, however.Ĭooler Master’s mechanical keyboards don’t have their switches set in stone. The “best” CHERRY MX switch doesn’t exist, as it’s all up to personal taste. The “Black” has the strongest resistance the “Blue” has low resistance and finishes with a click the “Brown” has medium resistance and a bump when pushed half-way and finally, the “Red” has very low resistance. For mechanical keyboards, what you have to worry about is whether or not they include CHERRY MX switches, and further, which color.ĬHERRY MX switches come in four colors two of which are non-linear. With gaming mice in recent years, we’ve had to worry about which sensor a mouse is shipped with, because there are differences. I wanted to finally get a chance at using a mechanical model.
QUICKFIRE KEYBOARD PRO
Coincidentally, Cooler Master at around the same time sent us its QuickFire Pro and Trigger keyboards, so I jumped on them and barked at anyone that came near me. In recent months, as I’ve read reviews on mechanical models, including those on this site from Ryan and Jamie, I started to feel the pull. After all, has there been a market where there have been more fads than gaming peripherals?
Mechanical keyboards have been around for decades, so with the onslaught of recent releases, it’d be reasonable to assume that we’re in the midst of a big fad – one that companies such as Cooler Master, Corsair, SteelSeries and others, are just trying to cash in on. So what’s the next step, then? If you follow keyboard releases at all, you already know the answer: “Mechanical”. That’s a hard statement to settle on, because innovation exists, and it’s alive and well. It makes you wonder – did we really reach a point where there’s little to improve? Even market leader Logitech has failed to release a new gaming keyboard in the last year-and-a-half. Anything released either seemed too overdone, or didn’t inspire me to upgrade. In recent years, there’s just been very little to catch my attention. If someone a couple of years ago asked me if anything exciting was happening in the world of gaming keyboards, I’m not sure I’d have much to say.
