They both look like kickass keyboards to me! I don't have any of them though lol
What I like about the Cyborg a bit more than the Sidewinder is how it has some USB/audio/mic ports at the rear. The USB one would come in handy for me

I don't like both. I think I would choose Logitech G15.

Steelseries 7G no?

Sidewinder X6 looks pretty normal (but heck, i prefer the Red Alert 3 Limited Edition version) while the Cyborg looks futuristic. If it was me, i'll test the keyboard before actually buying 1 so that 1 can actually test whether they are comfortable with the keyboard or not

If I have to choose between this two keyboard my choice would be SideWinder X6. Otherwise my choice is Logitech G15.

I'd go for the Sidewinder X6 if i'd have to choose from these two. Else i'd go for a Logitech G15, Razer Lycosa or Razer Tarantula.

hows the keyboard? noisy or dead silent?

and congratz

kayFX · 8th Dec 2008, 02:40 AM

the keyboard sound just nice.. but i've tested the SS 7G, and its dead silence.. being a mechanical keyboard the SS 7G probably the best gaming keyboard of all.. but couldn't afford it

.. only this SideWinder fit my budget.. haven't fully tested it yet.. and i got the Red Alert edition one with custom decals..
