I have both the Rosewill and the filco. The Filco is in brown which I prefer and the Rosewill is in Red so I haven't used it quite as much.
As far as I can tell they are very similar. Maybe you...

Das switched their manufacturer and their new boards are garbage. I absolutely love the Das with blue switches I bought about a year ago. Easy ways to tell if it's a crap Das or a good one,
The...

Out of curiosity, how do you check if you have the newer version or not? Have had mine for 2.4mo and no issue for now, but based on reviews, looks like the failing kicks in around the 6mo mark.

Hopefully we don't digress much further, but regarding the rosewill keyboards, the old iteration had usb port problems, where the lightly soldered connection would simply fall apart in a relatively...

I gave the Rosewill a hard look, but decided against because of all the issues.
I researched a bunch of boards, Filco, Leopold, Das, CM, Corsair and decided on the Logitech G710. I wanted browns...

That's what I thought the general consensus was. Having typed on a Filco I didn't figure anything else but maybe a Leopold would compare in terms of quality. Never tried the Rosewill so didn't want...

The Rowewills have been more like $80 recently, and have been getting some terrible reviews at Newegg. Seems that Rosewill mechanical's have some serious issues both with the PS/2 / USB plugs...

Alright fair enough. The rosewills are definitely a steal at 50, though.

I have both. A rosewill for $50 is just as good as a filco with the exact same switches. Especially when the Filco wears so hard.

I know this is OOS, but did you seriously just say a rosewill is better than a filco?

The Logitech has double shot keys, they can't wear down.
Backlights, macro keys, same price, Just sayin'

If you're worried about key wear then Rosewill is not a good choice either. The lasering on the RK-9000 series keycaps is poor quality, so the legends will start to wear off after a few months of...

Beware: The coating on these keys wears off unevenly over time. I think the rosewill keyboard is better tbh.

Amazon still has the Logitech G710 on sale for $99, it has nicely dampened browns and adjustable backlights.
It's still unclear who makes it for Logitech, but it's a great keyboard for typing and...

Great deal!
I still feel like $99 is what filco "should" charge for their keyboards though.
