Default New keyboard - suggestions?

I was thinking of getting a logitech since a lot of people here seem to like them, and although I really like Saitek, two keyboards have already had problems after about a year where certain keys/vert rows of keys will stop responding when hitting the same key too fast.

http://www.logitech.com/en-us/keyboa...-keyboard-g110

http://www.logitech.com/en-us/keyboa...nated-keyboard

The first keyboard seems more durable, and I'm generally more used to thicker keys. But, the second one seems like it'll help with the recent speedboost I've gained since there's smaller distance to press for the key to respond/depress. I just don't know how durable it'll be and if itll respond to 4 keys at a time.

What are your thoughts, ffr? Personal experiences perhaps? Suggest different keyboards that are better and AREN'T over 80 bucks if you have input

The one thing I hate about my Illuminated:


but I probably should've cut my nails more often

Also, noted that g10 is a no go. I was leaning more towards the illuminated.

Edit: after looking at some of the other features and the layout of some of the keys (as well as price) I'm starting to like the Kensington

If you want durability, get a mk-85 or a coolmaster quickfire pro. Both these kbs rock
