I'm using an old microsoft keyboard. Sometimes my shift key doesn't react properly but besides from that, I'm happy with my keyboard. But I'm thinking of buying a new one.

Don't buy razer stuff. It's overpriced and just bad.

I use a CM Storm QuickFire TK (Red switch) and I'm pretty happy with it.

im using a microsoft sidewinder x 4 and im pretty happy with it but to be fair i think u can use any keyboard and it wont really influence your gameplay once u get used to it. A good mouse is the really important factor for gaming not the keyboard

K70 is very nice, no complaints.

I use custom keyboards, honestly its not the brand that is driving how good the board is. Heres the three things that actually matter in my oppinion

1.Your comfort with the keyboard
2. Mechanical Switches
3. Keyboard Layout

Obviously if you are not comfortable with the keyboard your performance will drop. However you can always force yourself to work through that for either an upgrade to mechanical switches or a better layout.

A full sized keyboard is the same deal no matter the brand

Mouse is more important ye, but also the chair and desk. When i changed desk and chair it took me a month to adjust to the new height and angle. And yesterday i played in a setup with a bad chair and a desk that had an edged which kinda tilted the angle of my arm, the result was like a 90% drop in apm lol...

In the end tho, i guess u van get used to anything

The Razer keyboard in the poll has poor switches (MX cherry >'>'>' Kailh). If you really want a mechanical keyboard, choose Corsair or another brand you didn't mention here.
I have a Poseidon Z with brown switches (Kailh) and I'm as skilled as I was with my Microsoft wired keyboard 600, which is a very good and cheap keyboard I won't deny.

What is the difference between a mechanical keyboard and a laptop built in one?

I meant in experience and advantages / disadvantages, Ryan said it matters.
