Keyboard for Gaming

Any keyboard will wear after extended use. It depends on your preference, but I find the existing keyboard quite limited for gaming. It's nice to have dedicated function keys that aren't half the size of a normal keyboard. It's also nice to have a num pad.

 

I'm not a pro-gamer, but I've been asked to compete in tournaments and such but that whole scene just isn't for me. But I love my Apple keyboard for gaming, the wired one with numeric pad (though I never need to use the numpad). That with a Razer mouse - perfect!

Latency is low, chiclet-style keyboard is quick and quiet. Low profile. Can't really fault it.

 

I have a Logitech G15 plus a Razer Imperator (my previous mouse was a Logitech G5). I am happy with those, even if now I play mostly with the built in keyboard and the Razer mouse.

 

I had a G15, now moved to a G110 (same thing without the screen) and I love it, plus a Razer DeathAdder 1st gen.

I feel totally limited by the built-in KB, since control is shifted over. I also tend to press a lot harder when I game, so I worry about my built-in KB. Those are personal opinions though, you might feel differently.

 

Obviously the G15/G110 is a different story from the built-in keyboard but nowadays I play often in my bed and using the MBP+Razer+G15 it is not comfortable for me. On a desk, Logitech KB+ Razer mouse are always a good choice

 

I use a Logitech G19 for gaming. I did pay $200 for it, but I love it. Works great in both Mac and Windows.
