And I can't get it out of my head
No, I can't get it out of my head
Now my whole world is gone for dead
'Cause I can't get it out of my head
I've only had a few Mech KBs - Logitech, Corsair and brief encounter with Ducky. Not familiar with Roccat. Any user feedback with previous models? Any suggestions? From an aesthetics point of view the Vulcan's right up my alley but for me quality matters too (for gaming and work), hence any feedback will be highly appreciated.
I'm not so familiar with key caps either and tend to stick with brown or similar type keys. Tenkeyless not a problem but would like to see a full key variant too.
Hopefully I'm wrong on this part, but will wait for official reviews to decide if I wanna try one out or not :)
But hey, at least the USB cable is a type C, so that's progress in my mind !
As for the other items, well
y/A/w/N.....
