Best scissor switch keyboard recommendations? in Computer Peripherals ·
I am currently on the hunt for a keyboard featuring scissor switches—you know, those low-profile, flat keys similar to what you find on a high-end laptop. My primary use cases involve heavy programming sessions and gaming. I actually had my eye on the Logitech K740 Illuminated because it looked absolutely perfect, but I was disappointed to discover that it fails to register the Shift + W + Space combination, which is an essential shortcut for quick sprinting and jumping in games 👎 .
The core issue is that I really dislike traditional, deep keycaps; I much prefer the feel of "flat" keys as they make typing feel significantly smoother and more effortless for me. Ideally, I am looking for a full-sized layout with dedicated arrow keys and a separate number pad, rather than those cramped, compact designs where everything is squeezed together. If anyone happens to have a solid recommendation, I would be incredibly grateful—preferably something priced under $167, though I am willing to consider higher-end options if they are worth it

So, I have been weighing the possibility of picking up a 7770, though I am not entirely certain if my current power supply can handle the load (I’m about 99% sure it can, but I suppose it wouldn't hurt to double-check! :P). Furthermore, I am curious as to which manufacturer would be the most reliable choice. I have been presented with several options: XFX, ASUS, Gigabyte, and Sapphire—is there actually a significant performance gap between them?
Additionally, is the jump in performance from the 7750 to the 7770 truly worth an extra $100?$67

Here are my current specs:
AsRock fm2a85x extreme 4
Athlon x4 750 k (stock settings)
Zalman ZM500-GS 500W
4GB DDR3 (2 sticks)
