If I ever plan on getting another board, what would you guys recommend? I was looking at the Filco Proffesional Silent. | ||

NKRO will allow you to press any combo of keys and they will register so it makes a difference depending on howw you play. | ||

So It's not really a big deal playing without NKRO if you've been using a you laptops integrated keys the latest 5 years... | ||

Almost all the times you have to press multiple keys involve modifiers such as cntrl, shift etc and these always register with other keys on every keyboard I have ever used. You could possibly have problems if you use nonstandard bindings on a 2kro keyboard, but almost all keyboards are 6kro atm so it shouldnt be an issue. | ||

NKRO is a bit overhyped, a lot of people make a bigger deal out of it than it actually is. There are some applications where it's very useful / required (for example: making music where each key represents a note / sound), but most people will never need it. | ||

Aside from modifiers like Ctrl and Shift, you never have to hold down several keys at once, it's more of a rapid succession of single strokes, so NKRO does not help. NKRO is rather important for FPS though. Edit: and MMORPG maybe. | ||

It has blue switches which I like a lot and the build quality seems top notch. I think it's the same manufacturer for filco. Got it for 65 bucks. http://us.ncix.com/products/index.php?usaffiliateid=1000031501&sku=67069&promoid=1009 . Highly recommend it! hope they release this keyboard in europe soon (other layouts) | ||
