Must Have Gaming Gear: Logitech G15 Keyboard

By Robert | April 19, 2007

Today I’m going to give you a rundown of what I think is must have gaming gear.

First up every gamer needs a top of the line keyboard and my choice is the Logitech G15 keyboard.

The keys on the Logitech are slightly cushioned, dulling the impact of the stroke there are 18 dedicated function keys on the left, for keystrokes and or macro’s with three shift modes. That gives you a total of 54custom keys. And then you can load profiles for each game making almost endless list of combinations.

I presume there is a limit in their somewhere but I doubt I will ever need to worry about it. The display on the top can display time, CPU/RAM stats, a countdown timer/stopwatch, POP monitor and a media display that will display for your favorite music player. Heck you can even download custom app’s to get feedback from games, run a virtual pet, FRAPS or code your own.

Two USB ports sit at the back, the keyboard can have lights on or off and media player and volume controls are preset.

This is the ultimate gamer’s keyboard. Note that the earlier version had problem with the paint on the keys rubbing off so you might want to steer clear of those versions if you can.
