RAZER Arctosa Silver Wired Standard Gaming Keyboard

Comment:
This keyboard is an excellent and inexpensive version of the Lycosa. If you're looking for a good gaming keyboard with low profile keys, this is an excellent keyboard. The Arctosa has keys with a normal finish vs the rubberized feel of the Lycosa.

Only a ุ keyboard (btw cheaper than on the Razer website) and it works quite nicely. The keys don't feel low cost and they don't have a lot of depth to them like older keyboards (the tall keys are no a lot more!). Wrist rest is also incredibly comfy. Keys are a little far more spaced out (at least much more than my final keyboard), which I guess is much better for folks with longer fingers. The caps, num lock, and scroll key have bright white lights that you can't turn off, I got utilized to it immediately after a day though and I don't notice it any much more. The keyboard is truly good if you don't want to invest ๖+ on a classic full keyboard. It will really feel unique but receiving used to it is a breeze. The drivers function fine (I have no thought why people complain about it not working, could be system particular as I'm operating XP).

Ok really feel, gamming grade, anti ghosting.....and so on. I think about it to be light weight nearly flimsy.....feel doesnt seem to be a quality board. caps light is practically blinding! Properly all in all not a poor keyboard,but i would probly go with the lycosa subsequent time, i like razer items just not this board, time will tell if it holds up.

The board feels good. Every thing appears to work fine. I CAN NOT SEE ANY OF THE KEYS. I KNOW HOW TO Type BUT IT IS Nonetheless A Problem. I HAVE TO Choose UP THE KEYBOARD JUST TO SEE THE NUMBERS. I ordered a diverse keyboard but I am not content with the waste of cash. I can not even give it to my youngsters. They will never know what key to hit.

- Gaming mode selection is great- Macro function is also excellent, i could do my homework a small quicker now ྾ seconds, lol) by setting my heading to a specific macro key and ive been able to annoy my dad into submission by setting each and every important to the macro "buy me the razer diamondback mouse," shortened of course- You could carry out a light show with the caps, num, and scroll lock lights- I could type quicker now- Really thin- I am now officially portion of the Cult of Razer - Makes a sound every time you press a important. It may possibly be annoying at very first if you are employed to making use of silent keyboards, but i got applied to it. I like the sound of it now.- Board is longer than normal ones

Slim-cap key structureThe capability to disable windows keyNo ghosting concerns The three LEDs are to bright, and can be annoyingDoesn't really feel as sturdy as I hoped Overall it was a excellent acquire.

Laptop style keys (some might not like this)media keys a lot more functions than old keyboard hadvery best drivers around they let you:-program any important to do anything like open a program or a typical macro key that can be set to do a series of important presses-one reviewer complained that the keyboard only works for windows media player unless u have the itunes window open, this was changed with the new drivers now it i can alter the song will in a different program -leds are incredibly vibrant like other people have mentioned-light bleeds via around where the media keys are from the leds-keys are a small on the loud side (doesn't effect me)-it does really feel low cost, there is no one factor that i can point out about it but overall it just isnt produced of high good quality materials i am acquiring applied to typing on this keyboard, the keys are softer than i would have preferred. (i like fairly stiff keys) I wouldn't recomend this keyboard if you arent using the macros for it otherwise there are cheaper keyboards with laptop style keys and media keys. Also the keys are a little larger than an typical keyboard despite the fact that i am finding used to this the more i use the keyboard. Being able to alter the song w/o leaving a game have been a godsend, i have a large itunes library and just leave it on shuffle even though i am playing a game and to have to leave the game and alter the song was not practicable so it is so valuable, combine that with the macros and this makes gaming less complicated. I dont feel i play any better since of it but it is slightly far more enjoyable. I would advise this to any individual that likes laptop keys and wants very good macro capability, if you don't want the macros just the laptop keys you can come across a better deal elsewhere.

I like it, extremely responsive, notice a slight movement response time improvement in L4D2, turning the windows key off is awesome too. the white NUM lock LED is too vibrant...blinding even in daytime. it feels like a sturdier than typical laptop keyboard but full size...some men and women may well not like this.

A little too sensitive sometimes. I often have to retype the same thing a couple of times to get it right because of it. Very good buy for the price though.

This board is fine for the price. I use a logitech g19 now which is much nicer. I'd probably get a g11 over this one. One thing I like about the razer is the keys feel a bit nicer. They rubber which is nice.I don't like how shiny this is. You have to clean it constantly. It seems better to just do a matte finish.

Comment:
was worth the buy, the keys are very easy to type and i love the design of itthe keyboard itself to me is a bit too low even with the hand rest, the program that came with it was pretty hard to use for me, settin up the macros and other hotkeys required some time to figure out

Comment:
i got this today everything works fine thank you

Comment:
I would have to say this is a great gaming keyboard. keys are real low profile and took me a couple days to get used to but after you get used to them they are 10 times better. the impact on my fingers is much easier with this board. Has really bright white LEDS for Caps,Num,Scroll lock AND volume control,Play,Pause buttons ect right under the lights, kind of hard to notice at first as they are almost hidden but thats a good thing cuz they dont stand out and look bad. Enjoy.

This is a great multi-media keyboard, not so much a gaming one. There aren't any USB, or audio in or out jacks. But everything works well at the moment.

Swapped out my old $5 keyboard I've had for years and actually spent some money on one. Picked this basic Razer over the other Razers as I didn't want shiney keys or rubber non-stick keys or backlight. I wanted a basic full keyboard that was better than a $10 one. After some regular use and some Team Fortress 2, I quite enjoy it. The addition of the media bar is nice though the buttons have no feel to them. Only other con is the SUPER BRIGHT lock keys on it. Buy it if looking for a basic keyboard with little frills and solid design. Wait for it be on sale or pricematch it though.

I needed a gaming keyboard for my HTPC, i'm big fan of razer so i figured it would give it go. It looks nice, but i found it was very small compared to my Razer Tarantula, it also does not weight anything, and really feels like a cheap plastic keyboard. It does the job though, at 50$ i did not regret buying it, but if your looking for a really good keyboard, look elsewhere.
