anyone own the logitech solar keyboard? (k750)
long story.. short version:
bought a keyboard 3 days ago.. spilt shit on it like an idiot. picked up the logitech solar keyboard. tried to play FFR and there is a delay which dumps goods all over the fkn place. so i was wondering if anyone has this keyboard and if your keyboard doesnt have a delay. thanks in advance~ edit: just so its known.. i did try multiple different usb ports. theres software that i downloaded that tells me its 100% charged. and i couldnt find any firmware updates. so yeah.

Well I would certainly recommend keeping any and all fecal matter away from your new keyboard.

Holy butts that's an $80 keyboard. Also it's wireless so that might be your problem.
I've been told that old generic keyboards from the WinXP era are the best for FFR. My best scores were on a HP keyboard that shipped with a computer I got in 2003. I starting buying gaming keyboards for other games I play and after that it all went downhill. Anyway, I've owned three different Logitech keyboards and aside from two of them randomly ceasing to function, I never had much delay issues. So I dunno.

Re: anyone own the logitech solar keyboard? (k750)
the previous keyboard i had was wireless, and functioned correctly. which made me think that purchasing a better brand name (logitech) as apposed to HP (as far as computer peripherals go) would be a good choice, which is why i made this thread. idk if i have a faulty kb, or just a bad purchase.

most wireless keyboards are complete crap because of the delay they have. it should say on the box the amount of delay the keyboard has though iirc. if not you can always check online. as far as rhythm gaming or anything that requires timing i suggest going with a wired keyboard

Haha i had a keyboard that i spilled coffee on a while back... It had a bad delay for like a week and a half but then i guess it dried out because by the end it was working properly again as if i'd just bought it.

Re: anyone own the logitech solar keyboard? (k750)
You probably just picked a lucky star with that wireless HP keyboard. Either get that one again, or buy a cheap $10 wired keyboard.
If you want a high-end gaming keyboard, I recommend the Microsoft Sidewinder X6. It's a pretty solid all-round keyboard and next to my old HP keyboard, it's been my best FFR performer. They run $80 at Fry's, but I've bought 3 of them on eBay, the most expensive being $52.

Don't go wireless for things where you can't afford occasional, short delays.
For all your keyboard queries, look to geekhack.
