The X6 also includes full media keys and volume and backlighting control dials to fine-tune the gaming experience. The red backlighting indicates standard keys that are not programmable, while the amber color indicates custom-programmable macro keys in game mode that can be tuned to the gamers' preference. Research shows many gamers like to dim the lights, and the X6's two-color adjustable backlighting helps set the mood to achieve total immersion. Gamers enjoy a heightened experience when adsorbed in the gaming world.

"With the switchable key pad, gamers will have a fantastic, customizable experience whether they're playing their favorite game or creating Microsoft Office PowerPoint presentations." "We know that consumers don't want to pull out and set up a second keyboard for a gaming session, so we created a device that was perfect for both gaming and regular computer use," said Kevin Flick, user researcher for Microsoft Hardware. Complementing the unique versatility of the keyboard are features specifically designed for gaming, including the capacity to store up to 90 macros per game and backlighting that helps users get immersed in the game. I'd advise ANY gamer who doesn't already have a mousepad to get one.The switchable key pad makes the SideWinder X6 Keyboard ideal for gaming as well as productivity, as the key pad functions as a standard num pad in normal keyboard mode, but becomes a programmable macro pad in game mode. No need for fancy backlighting or macro keys, I just want it to be easy to type with and the keys to not be curved. It just glides, no more rugged, scratchy mouse movements, it's amazing.įor keyboards, I have a Razer Arctosa, which I bought because I LOVE the flat keys, and the low profile. EVERYTHING is so much smoother when compared to my (what I thought was smooth) desktop. My KDR in games (particularly sniping in TF2, where headshots are near essential) nearly doubled. Bought a steelseries mousepad, OH MY GORSH. Bought a Microsoft Habu, didn't like it at all. I had a $10 cheap ass mouse, was the most comfortable mouse I've ever used, but then the cord wore down and it stopped working, and I lack the skills to fix it. I don't need the $100+ keyboards or anything, what REALLY makes a difference in my playing is how smooth the feet of the mouse are, and how comfortable the mouse is.
