It has Blue switches, which i find really nice for typing and to be honest have given me no issues with gaming over the previous set of browns i had.
They are more audible than most, if not all other switches, but I just whack the headset on. To be fair it doesn't bother me anyway, I like the clacking of a keyboard as I'm typing "Lucky shot and m320 N00b" Haha.
kidding! But yeah, If you're wanting to try a mech keyboard, this one is a decent choice.
FEATURES
N-Key Rollover over USB
N-Key Roll Over in USB mode means even the wildest key combos are registered perfectly.
Easy cable management
Detachable braided USB cable and cable routing groves at the underside of the keyboard. Easy cable management and better flexibility.
Full LED backlight, 3 modes and 5 brightness levels
Stylish and provides optimum visibility even in dark rooms. Different backlight modes highlight different key groups.
Compact layout with integrated Num pad block
The QuickFire TK's unique NumPad block design merges both navigation and command keys. You get a compact gaming keyboard with a NumPad block.

can anybody recommend a good clicky keyboard with arrow keys? I'm not interested in gaming at all but i really like a good clunky noisy keyboard to type on, thanks.
got these when argos had a shocker and sold them for £35. As someone already mentioned the combined numpad and arrow keys are abit annoying, and takes a while to get used to. However the keyboard is very compact and feels very sturdy. The switches felt very good, especially compared to my membrane keyboard. Also the built in shortcuts are very useful.

Nice, shame that the enter/return button is the smaller american style.

And it's the one with the num pad and cursor keys combined. Which makes it a total non-starter for me.
Decent enough price for a good mechanical though if that (and the small return key) doesn't bother you.

I have that one. It's brilliant but the leds are starting to fade and cm storm wouldn't be able to replace it with another white one.
However it wouldn't be too hard to paint and normal one. The plastic shell comes off with a few screws. Valspar fast dry project enamel would do the trick.

The ABS keycaps on this keyboard feel very cheap, I would consider replacing them if I were to make this purchase.

Agreed, I've got blank white PBTs on mine and they feel much better. They're cheap on Gear Best if anyone's interested :smile:

Really wish they would bring back the limited edition white one :disappointed:. Good keyboard and price, heat.

I think razer or corsair mechanical keyboards are the most solid/best.
e.g. the corsair k65, which is a popular choice
