TVS-e GOLD Keyboard

[ACidBaseD]

I'm also looking to buy this keyboard, and will be doing so when i save up 2k
I'm pretty sure it's huge leap in gaming/typing

Any mechanical keyboard with a good build quality will be good for gaming. Once you start using it, regular keyboards will feel ancient and pathetic

I switched to a mechanical keyboard about 3 months ago and I'm loving it. The feeling of typing on it is something that has to be experienced.

But I heard it's a 2KRO keyboard hence very bad for gaming?

You want around 6KRO at least, if you game a lot. That said, this only applies to the USB version. PS/2 versions are always NKRO because they involve hardware interrupts rather than polling when you're pressing a key.

^^ TVSe Gold is not NKRO, it's 6KRO for PS/2. Not sure about USB but it should be 4KRO not 2 IMO. Even cheap USB membrane keyboards tend to have 3KRO.

You should try typing "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog", while holding both shift keys pressed. That is a good indicator for key rollover. A full NKRO will easily type everything.

As I said, the PS/2 version is not NKRO, I've already tested it both via what you have said and Passmark Keyboard test.

Obviously an acer membrane keyboard wont be able to

My Corsair K70 does it like a champ though:

THE QUICK BROWN FOX JUMPS OVER THE LAZY DOG.

@SlashDK: What was it like on PS/2?

Space key is usually the first victim.

Hey, have you tried using it with a Mac / Linux ? I have a dell laptop with Linux (Fedora) installed on it as my primary operating system and a Macbook Pro, wanna know if this keyboard will work with both of these systems, primarily with Mac as I tend to work more on that in terms of programming and stuff

TVS doesn't say anything about Mac / Linux compatibility on their website.

Thanks

I'm worried about the same [Linux Compatibility]

Can any of the owners take this test please?

Also from where to get it @ 1500₹ ?
It's avilable for 1950₹ on Amazon.in.

NO need to worry about Linux compatiblity MOSTLY ALL keyboards works with Linux easily. Sometimes special keys won't work(Fn, Windows specific functions), but TVS doesn't have any so no need to worry.
Can't comment on Mac compatibility.

Local shops mate, local shops.
( You can find one ~1700 )

 

[noob]
