    Default Microsoft SideWinder X4 Keyboard Question

    So im thinking about buying the Microsoft SideWinder X4 Keyboard for FPS gaming. It's only $38 where as the Thermaltake Challenger PRO Gaming Keyboard cost $78. But there is one thing that worries me. I read that the "W" key has 2 small dotted bumps on the key for feeling where to put your hands. Does that get really anoying? Does it feel like the "F" and "J" keys? Or should I just go straight for the Thermaltake challenger pro gaming keyboard?

    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated

    Thanks

    LOL bought mine keyboard for around 10 dollars Still working fine to me...Changed the first on only because My bad wire ripped off due to my pc fell when I was looking behind it...

    Gaming keyboards mouses and etc crap are overrated they are the same as normal crap only more annoying with extras as dot's on W button which to be honest might make your finger in pain after a whole bunch of gaming...

    Cheap regular keyboard from a known maker like Microsoft ,Logitech,Genius or something like that...And other you know and trust...And you should be fine...

    I don't think it gets annoying. You feel the little bumps on F and J (provided your keyboard has those bumps) every time you type and that doesn't really get annoying, right? ^^

    Well yeah just because you press them once maybe 1 sentance and not always, but you got to press the w rapidly if not hold it I think that is what might get in the way...
