I need a new gaming keyboard and I was thinking about buying the Razer Black Widow Ultimate. It looks nice, has good reviews and I like the clicky sound. Is this worth the $140 dollars or should I get a different one? Keep in mind I like the Cherry mx blue keys because of the clicky sound. Thanks!

I bought a 2012 version of the death widow so it'll match my blue deathadder, & I love the keyboard.

I only payed $90 for it, & it was slightly used.

I'd say it's worth it.

Whats a death widow?

I feel like such a noob now with my 10$ Walmart keyboard lol >.<

I was learning towards that keyboard but wanted something a little less mainstream and more different looking. Everyone and their mom had a black widdow and I wanted something different.  

 

So I did a ton of research and ended up getting the one in the link below.

- Fantastic keyboard, I really like the clicks, however it is extremely loud. If you're in a Skype call a lot, your friend may get annoyed.. but besides that, the LED lights and clicks are pretty awesome.

 

- It's also a good keyboard if you plan to game a lot, as it has the macro keys on the side of the keyboard, I myself haven't used them because I don't game too often, but yeah, I think you'll like the keyboard.
