A very good keyboardGot this keyboard yesterday orginally was going to get the Zalman K400G but they have had none in stock so after a long long time of looking for a replacement keyboard i came across the side winder..
Simple plug n and play keyboard the led back lighting is a really nice touch not to bright but not to dark on highest setting then installed the driver very simple to do so.
They keys are closer together which is something you will get used to but it didn't take me long at all. The wrist pad is actually very comfy its not going to be for everyone but its a nice touch.
My only complaint is the escape key which is REALLY small compared to a standard size one and it is a bit further up then my old keyboard but again i will get used to it fairly quickly.
All in all a great keyboard to type on in everyday computing and excellent for gaming.I did buy this based on these reviews and for £33 it is really a good deal and its a awesome keyboard enough said :)

    Great KEyboardNicest Keyboard i have ever used.

    NO Ghosting issues.

    Macro's are simple and intuitive.

    Brightness adjustment is nice.

    Simple drivers.

    Only downside is mediakeys only work with some mediaplayers (such as VLC) when they are the active window11 User found this Review usefullhelpful Review? Yes

    Great Keyboard for South Paws, Best Ghousting I have came across on a keyboard yet. Great price from Overclockers.

    Cons: Buttons chip and wear overtime.11 User found this Review usefullhelpful Review? Yes

    Very ImpressedVery happy when i received this. Out of the very nice packaging i was amazed at how nice this looks. The keys are a good size and make a very pleasant sound.
    I was also surprised at how easy the macro keys are to set up

    Well worth purchasing.11 User found this Review usefullhelpful Review? Yes

    Good keyboardGood keyboard, excellent quality and build, Looks very stylish and the brightness changer is always a welcome bonus.

    The palm rest i was fair worried about as its none-removable but it works out nicely - (Gets dirty easier then others i have used)

    - Cheap as well. glad i didn't have to fork out an extra 50.

    Only real downside i have noticed is it catches fingerprints/smudges VERY easily and is noticeable.11 User found this Review usefullhelpful Review? Yes

    Great ChoiceVery pleased with this keyboard! The rough grip at the bottom of the keyboard is extremely comfortable. This was plug & play for me, drivers were installed automatically from windows update, macro keys work well. The keys are ten times quieter than my previous keyboard which is a piece of junk. I didn't think I could purchase something of such quality at this low price.11 User found this Review usefullhelpful Review? Yes

    Very goodIts very good, nice keys, lights (? I don't know why when gamers don't look at the keyboards) and macros (I don't use them but there ok.

    The feel is important and it feels well made and nice to type on.

    Problems are the arm rest is a bit short (big hands but still)
    The media keys cause random typing at points. (Types it's self)11 User found this Review usefullhelpful Review? Yes

    Awesome.This was a very plesant product to use, plug in and play, I'd suggest it to any buyers, With it's built in underglow on the keys, it's brillaint to see in the dark, this has a dimmer effect, Nice wrist wrest. for easy typing.
    Overall good prodyct. :)10 User found this Review usefullhelpful Review? Yes

    An excellent keyboard!Build quality is excellent, keys have a nice feel to them and easy to type with.

    Design is slick and stylish, clearly aimed at gamers, but not overdone or tacky. The glossy surface looks cool but catches fingerprints easily.

    The red backlight is bright enough without being annoying. There are four brightness levels (max, med, min and off) which is controlled via a dedicated key.

    There are plenty of extra media keys (volume, play, etc) including a set of six keys down the left of the keyboard which can be programmed to carry out macros or open programs, websites, etc. There's also a keyboard profile selector key which can be used to switch between three different profiles for your keyboard, whereby each profile has a different key assignments and macros.

    There is also a macro record button which can be used to record macros to the six programmable keys, on the fly.

    The included software is also simple and easy to use for macros, prgorammable keys, etc.

    A good 9/10 for me!10 User found this Review usefullhelpful Review? Yes

    love itAmazing keyboard. I swapped this for a Saitek Eclipse II and I have no complaints. The arm rest is perfect and the keyboard itself is compacted, but not too much, so the key's feel perfectly spaced from each other.

    The backlight is about twice as bright as the Eclipse, but it does only come in red.

    Overall, I'm very pleased I made the switch.10 User found this Review usefullhelpful Review? Yes

    Great KeyboardJust got this after having to sell my Razer Black Widow Ultimate for being to loud on key noise. I bought this based on reviews and am not disappointed. quality build and typing is not noisy. in fact i find it better to type with than the Razer. Not tried all the functions yet but i can't fault this keyboard in anyway. Only thing i would have liked is changing colours but that's just a aesthetic point as most of my stuff is blue led.10 User found this Review usefullhelpful Review? Yes
