Hi guys, well I have a Saitek Eclipse 2 keyboard and its very nice and good for gaming. Problem is I am getting RSI like shooting pains in my left hand (WASD hand) mainly around my 3rd and 4th fingers. Now can anyone recommend a good keyboard for gaming which is supposed to help conditions like this. Im not a fan of the split keyboards as I have to relearn where everything is but if it will help I'll do it. Any recommendations?
Cheers
I would recommend getting yourself an old IBM "Model M" keyboard. It's one of those old clunkers, that weigh something like 2 kilos. The nice thing about it is that it has springs in the keys, which gives you feedback and makes pressing keys less stressful to your hand. They also last forever (mine is from 1991).
I got mine for ten dollars, and after a good cleaning up I've been using it for about a year now. Much more comfortable. I found mine on an online craigslist type site, and bought it from a fellow offering old 486 computers for really cheap. Make sure to get one with a detachable cable and a PS/2 connector. Added bonus for gamers is the lack of a "windows" key
