How to choose a gaming keyboard?
- ✓Mechanical vs membrane: mechanical keyboards offer better durability (50–100M keystrokes), distinct tactile feedback, and fine switch customization.
- ✓Switch types: Red (linear, quiet) = general gaming. Blue (clicky, tactile) = satisfying typing, noisy. Brown (tactile, quiet) = universal compromise.
- ✓Size: Full (108 keys) = numpad included. TKL (87 keys) = more mouse space. 60–65% = ultra-compact, popular for FPS.
- ✓RGB: per-key or zone backlighting. Useful for low-light gaming, not essential for performance.
- ✓Anti-ghosting / N-Key Rollover: essential for multiple simultaneous keypresses in intense gaming.
FAQ
Which switches for FPS games?
Linear switches (Red) are popular for FPS thanks to their light, fast actuation. Low-actuation switches like Speed Silver enable the fastest keystrokes.
Is a mechanical keyboard worth the price?
Yes, especially if you play 2+ hours daily. Durability (50M vs 10M keystrokes for membrane) and typing comfort justify the investment from €60–80.
