KitGuru has reviewed many keyboards over the years – suited to a variety of tastes and demands. Today we are looking at the Topre Type Heaven model featuring high grade Electrostatic Capacitive Switches rated at 50 million keystrokes. Is it worth the $150 asking price?
I’m glad to see that mechanical keyboards are taking off with the gaming crowd. It used to be just me that was rocking a mechanical, then I slowly started getting my friends into it by selling them keyboards and inviting them to try out mine.
When I went back to the Computer Gaming Society IRC channel someone told me “Hey! Will! We’ve all got mechanicals now! Aren’t you proud?”
And I was, of course. Mechanicals make excellent sense for gamers looking for every bit of performance they can get, particularly if they’re playing competitively. They give you that slightest edge; they’re faster, more durable and they feel better than normal rubber dome keyboards.
The big difficulty is the price – where you can pick up a cheap dome keyboard for £3 and a gaming one for £20, a mechanical that costs £60 to £100 is a big step up.
What do you do then to justify a keyboard that’s nearly £200? You write a review on it, of course. Allow me to introduce you to the Topre Realforce 105UB – the Cadillac of keyboards.
Topre Realforce 105 UB Variable Die Topre Realforce ist ein Exot im Reich der mechanischen Tastaturen. Die Kombination aus Stahlfeder- und Gummiglocken-Technik generiert ein absolut einzigartiges Schreibgefühl.
| Thrustmaster T500 RS Racing Wheel & Pedals + Ferrari F1 Wheel Attachment PS3/PC Review @ eTeknix.com |
I go for a spin with the T500RS pro-racing wheel and its very fancy F1 wheel attachment from Thrustmaster.
The Thrustmaster T500RS Racing wheel is arguably the best gaming racing wheel simulator device in the world, arguably better than the already world famous G27 steering wheel from Logitech. The T500 RS is a great steeling wheel for any racing game, but has specifically been made for Grand Turismo 5, the world most realist simulator racing game. The Trustmaster T500 RS comes with outstandingly high quality build and materials and is shockingly realistic. Ourselves at HardwareLOOK are definately telling you this is the best gaming racing steering wheel on the market to date, and as Thrustmaster say themselves which we completely agree with “The new benchmark force feedback wheel!” let’s take a look why...
Thrustmaster, known for their high end gaming gear for flightsims, have turned their attention to steering wheels. With the endorsement of Gran Turismo 5 they have released a ~€550 wheel and pedal kit that aims to give you the best racing experience available, without going completely bankrupt. How does it stack up to a €100 wheel? Is it worth the extra cost? Time to find out.
Despite the fact that flight simulator games can be played with a keyboard and mouse, a joystick adds extra realism and enables you to immerse yourself further into the game. It feels like you are actually flying the aircraft rather than simply mashing buttons on a keyboard
Thrustmaster send us their latest gaming peripheral, a duo of wireless thumbstick controllers which work on PS3 and PC. The last product on our review bench from Thurstmaster left us seriously impressed; can they repeat the performance with this entry level gaming solution?
Since testing computer hardware products is a PC-centric task, I've never wandered very far from what I know. But after writing my editorial Year In Review: 2008 Computer Hardware Industry Failure it seemed wrong not to taste the forbidden fruit... so I purchased a Sony PlayStation 3. Aside from the PS3 system, which quickly received an Editors Choice Award-winning Solid State Drive upgrade, I also purchased nearly two-dozen games and a Blu-ray remote control.
Up on the review block today I've got a beautiful looking game pad controller from Thrustmaster. I normally wouldn't associate the word beautiful with the controller but this one deserves it. It's a Limited Edition Ferrari 430 Scuderia themed controller that is so limited that it's actually numbered. The controller is wireless and it works with both PS3 and PC games. It resembles most other controller out there but Thustmaster added an optical wheel to the pad specifically for driving or racing style games so you can get an edge over your competition. So read on to check it out...
