Pros:
LCD screen to be informed on who is speaking on ventrilo, music you listening to, etc.
Media controls for changing tracks or stopping it when in game.
Backlit keyboard
Sturdy Design
Cons:
G keys placed out of the way, so I rarely use them
LCD screen does not support alot of games
backlight only has orange color
I bought this keyboard because it was a prestigious keyboard, and it seemd like a good deal. It features an LCD screen, USB plugs, media controls, 3 sets of 6 programmable keys for any application you choose, backlight that can be turned off, and is comfortable to type on. However it is not all its cracked up to be I feel. The only uses I have for the LCD screen is the display of what song you are listening to, and who is talking on ventrilo, it offers support for WoW, Diablo 2, C&C, Wc3, and other RTS/RPG games, but offers no support for FPS games. Meaning you have to create your own profile for an FPS game and make macros, and there is no option to display info on the LCD for FPS games really.
The G keys are out of the way which is sometimes a good thing, but eventually leads to them not being used much at all. I find that they are rather useless unless you want to perfectly time something such as a spy backstab/sap. The program is also buggy when you want to copy/paste a repeated function into the same macro.
Overall if you want a keyboard for FPS games, this is an ok keyboard, but the LCD is rather useless until someone makes a mod for it that doesn't spam the console of the game.
I give this keyboard a 7.5/10 due to the LCD not working for FPS games, and logitech not supporting them with further driver packages. If you only play WoW this keyboard may be for you, but a majority of us here play FPS with our time.
7.5/10
