I've been using a Logitech G15 for 6/7 years and haven't had any issues with it.
I have never used the extra 18 "G" keys on the left which make the keyboard bigger then needed for me.
 
I'm looking for a high quality mechanical gaming keyboard for my DS build.
 
Any thoughts on the Corsair Vengence K60 or the Razer Black widow Ultimate?
 
Thanks,
 
Shot

Not too long ago I purchased the Razer BlackWidow Stealth edition but didn't find it very comfortable: I didn't like the built in palm rest and always had issues finding ESC and CAPS without looking. I use arrow keys for gaming (not WASD) and so the macro keys on the far left weren't positioned well for me.

More recently I shelled out for the Das Keyboard Silent and I'm never buying another keyboard again. It's perfect for me. Spendy, but perfect.

Personally I use the Corsair K60 and really enjoy it. The swappable WASD and 1-6 keys it comes with that are curved and make playing FPS's a breeze.

The Das Keyboard Model S Professional Silent uses Cherry MX brown mechanical key switches with gold contacts.

I'm leaning to the Corsair K60. Like the features of the K90, ie. back lit keyboard. but don't care for the 18 extra macro keys.  Want the illumination don't need the keys, hmmmm???

I have ordered a Corsair K90 keyboard. Don't care for extra keys but like the illumination.
