Pictures of your computer rigs! Post them here! - Page 540

Well it's my first mechanical keyboard so I can't really compare them to any other switches. But they feel nice. I think I'd prefer a little more resistance in blue switches though. I just heard they're really noisy so I got brown instead.

I also had the brown switches, but I did like the blues better. However those blues are way too loud man. Especially if you live in a studio appartment with your girlfriend. 

I ended up with the reds, and quite like them. I do have to get used to the attenuation point because I still bottom out.

Yeah I feel you. The people I live with say they don't mind, but I still feel bad clicking away in here. I'm happy with the CM Storm though....it's pretty, minimal, and functional and not $300 like some of those fancy boutique keyboards.

It sounds like you really really have to try the Greens.

Rockin' one with blue switches. I love it! My roommates, on the other hand, don't. Especially when I've procrastinated and end up typing a paper at 2am...

Built them myself, 3/4 thick hardwood cut to size, glued and screwed together then painted black. They do the job nicely!
