Higher key caps have different key switches underneath. Means you can variably press a key rather than it being up or down. At least that's with the expensive mechanical keyboards.

I don't like them because they are noisy (even quite caps).

I use a G15 v2, but it's a bit of a pain (took getting used to).

Best keyboard I've used was the Cordless Desktop one from MX3100 bundle, with Logitech K800 a close second.

Worst would be the Razer one I bought (it's loud as hell), or the Logitech G610s (keys feel mushy as hell).

The Microsoft Wired Desktop 600 keyboards have a nice feel to them and are low keys.

But the good typing keyboards aren't gaming keyboards and vice versa.
I have a razer one and I love it but you can hear me typing from a block away. So bloody loud.

I'm considering getting it but at the same time I just ordered Spider-Man, plus next month I want to get Assassins Creed Odyssey and Red Dead Redemption 2.
Assassin's Creed looks awesome but it looks virtually the same as Origins (which I loved) so I'll wait to get it.

Forza Horizon 4 and Red Dead will hold me until Christmas.

If you looking at simulator stuff and going to play multi sims may be worth getting.

Seen that at Gamesmen the other week. My cousin has all the logitech flight sim stuff and he was looking at getting that but was unsure if it can be configured to flight sim.

Yes AC Odyssey look similar to Origins but they have tweaked it a bit more and it's set in ancient Greece which I like.

Red Dead Redemption I've been counting down the days. Probably the game I've been looking forward to the most this year.

Being a logitech device the pc will recognize it straight away and you can just assign the buttons

Forza will hold me until red dead and red dead will probably hold me for a good six months.

I can’t believe people are still playing gta online?
Seriously it’s 5 years old and rockstar never fixed the problem with cheaters.
So all the honest players had to suffer for that.

I think it’s fair that GTA V and online gets the title for best game of all time and worst game of all time.

Definitely! I played it for a week when it first came out and haven't touched it since. Such a grind and it's designed for you to cheat/hack or but their stupid shark cards. Pass.

I was a either working part time or was a dole bludging bum When gta was at its peak.
I never hacked or got a dodgy account, but found exploits to rank up fast and make easy money.

But I always passed a thought to all the poor bastards, who work, have kids and other deadlines who didn’t have the time to grind like I did to keep up with DLC.

I just can’t justify paying $80 a year to play online?
Steam network on PC is free.
If I get back into gaming that’s how I’ll play.

Yeah, I'm moving away from console gaming to pc gaming.

The new insurgency game looks pretty bloody good. Kind of a mix of ArmA, Battlefield and Counterstrike.
