2:48 Keyboard :D

[EmilWb]

This was mindblowingly informative, thanks!

[TehMegaNoobZor]

LOOOL typing this on my g510 right now ^.^

[PavleP1]

Can I use both for mac, just for school work or is it just for windows?

[JestonXi]

Logitech makes good Keyboards and Webcams, the rest is crap.

[webdesign0Kahraman]

il be honest he dont look like a pro lol

[green2882]

omg comb your freaking arm hair it you won't regret it

[rutoojinn]

My only complaint is that it is the first G keyboard without a USB port built in... Other than that it is an awesome keyboard.

[EnriqueEPacheco]

nice unboxing and review.. I will get the keyboard soon :)

[milesthegreatbt]

I have both of these, G510 and G700. They both are awesome, especially the G510. I host a Minecraft server and have binded almost every G key to an in-game command or saying.

The G510 is a great bang for your buck and it works beautifully.

[59Hellfire]

got G510 for christmas. all pc gamers need this thing in my opinion

[MrTanner27]

shouldve mentioned about how you can record macros on the fly

[JWeippert13]

I have both of those

[zx12richardnl]

good review

[Matt21063]

i dont really like the "gaming mode" switches...what i have done is set the left windows key to the "Home" key function & use that to access the Steam overlay in-game :)

[RICOOABC]

nice screen, got it 2 ;d

[GRAVENAU80]

Great info poor camera angels

[doluseb]

@GRAVENAU80 camera angels have wings?

[harperadam]

wow why change the camera views like that Jesus fuck

[darkace256]

wow...I'm getting sick from watching this video

[SoNotSexyTim]

For a big company the camera work is awful!

[aaamarco3]

sorry if this sounds dumb but is this a mechanical keyboard?

[deffmac]

@aaamarco3 I don't believe so. As far as I know, Logitech doesn't make a mechanical keyboard. 

[maximum988]

I think I'll get the g500 because its wired. I worry about the lag in wireless mice.

[dkwjdefv2ee6ep]

@maximum988 wtf

[trollmanification]

@maximum988 the reciever have up to 1000 reports per second and from personal experience the g700 is great no lag at all.

[Indogyearsimdead]

I don't understand why logitech abandoned the recharging cradle like the MX700 had and instead went with the plug in charger effectively making it a corded mouse0

[carbinfibre]

TBH The camera man SUX!

[mykael75]

@carbinfibre I don't think there is a cameraman, just a tripod and someone who is as proficient at editing as this guy is at reviewing. I was searching for a tutorial on using this keyboard and all i got was a tutorial on how to open and read the box =(

[WorkingAtWoolies]

What is the scroll wheel click like on this mouse? Because I've tested a few other Logitech mouses in stores, and the click is really hard to activate, and there isn't much of a "click" sound. Can someone please tell me what the click on this mouse is like please?

[frans1012]

@WorkingAtWoolies its good you really easy to do on the g700

[MrJonas3211]

i dont care for the screen

[SuperDeath74]

why i play dota the stats no show

[wzq718]

really nice video, thanks Now I go to buy haha ! canot wait

[mitchellbobwah]

this review is not really planned out... Would help if they used it for a bit then they could give a proper review.

[GamingXenia]

Its not just comfort its EPIC COMFORT!

[kishona69]

Why did the camera crew switch cameras to the more distant one when you said "lets take a closer look (4:24)" ? I think your camera crew is looking for a new job cause they suck at this one. Nevertheless a GREAT review. Very informative.

[jennytwoinches]

UAC strikes again!!

[dandik123]

small enter noway i ll use that

[nagashirox]

Makes my eye pain

[Kongsted2970]

Is the Logitech G510 bigger or smaller than the Logitech G11?

[hdgamevideos1]

well newegg, your prices are great but please works on your filming skills and customer service. it took me 7 emails to get an rma for a defective hd antenna.

[heliman5434]

6:59 i was like wtf just connected to my pc lol

[jahedur]

how big is that monitor? 24" or 28"?

[kebs10]

Is it possible to see you frames per second in game on the G510 lcd screen?

[joelius24]

@kebs10 yes. if you run fraps it can show on screen live and also provide a real time graph of the last minute or so's fps.

[omglollmao123]

@kebs10 It SHOULD be. If you have FRAPS installed, it has built-in support for the Logitech G15 and can display current FPS, average FPS and a timeline graph of your FPS over the last minute or more on your LCD.

Since the G510 is basically just a re-skinned, re-tuned G15, it should be compatible with FRAPS.

Although if it isn't, there are a crapload of mods/apps for the G-Series keyboards which can do it also.

[korwinblue]

Stay on one POV and stick to it! This is damn near unwatchable changing camera angles for no reason.

[1Giraf]

I think it would be better to make two videos one about g700 mouse and one for the keyboard.

[SoLiDJinZo]

lol who edited this?

[tekotyko]

which is newer? the g19 keyboard or the g510?

[laptop504]

@tekotyko g510 is newer, they have almost the same feature. The g510 has the audio ports, 18 g-keys, while the g19 (which I have) has a color/colour screen (depends where you are), 12 g-keys, and requires a power adapter which u plug in to the wall. They both have customizable backlighting. Hope this helps. Also, check out my video of my setup and subscribe to me pls, I will do the same if you do!

[Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh]

I am going to stop watching this video. Headache.

[MrMotocrossfan]

i rly need a keyboard that i can customize to have light on the buttons i want it to light. can this keybord do that or not?? rly need (in f eks black ops) w,a,s,d, and the one u throw frag and flashbang button to light cus i play much in dark and always press wrong button on my keybord. anybody knows a keybord wich can do this??

[wesclev83]

@MrMotocrossfan This one does. You can choose any color you want.

[TeQuiiLaSHoTZz]

I got the G700 and its amazing!!!! G510 coming tomorrrow! Whoo hoo so happy! :)

[FallenHyroz]

@TeQuiiLaSHoTZz

I have had the G510 since christmas are you sure that your talking about the right key board?

[TeQuiiLaSHoTZz]

@FallenHyroz ...as in I ordered it the day before and its here now! not the release date :). It is a great keyboard but one thing that its slightly weird for me is that the shift key on the left is pretty small and the only game i really play is SC2 and you would need to use that key quite a bit for grouping. Thats the only disspointing thing, maybe I just need to get use to it. I have started to wonder if the Razor's mechcnical board might have been better for SC2 though. hmmm

[M1ster100]

I have g510 :D

[Terrna5k]

Had to log in just to comment on this.

Good review.

BUT! I hate the editing on this, too much changing on angles, just like The bourne.

[Michaelmop]

Got mine today for my b'day. Really excited!

[ELuna3693]

WTF why cant i find one decent wireless keyboard

[moopie1983]

why do you shave the bottom of your forearms? i think thats more annoying than the camera

[DrMeh3]

@moopie1983 lol he doesnt? u dont grow hair under your foremarms

[GTRMclaren722]

WTF with the camera angles ?? who edit this thing ???

[stoneynine]

dubstep 24/7

[shoxicwaste]

Awesome review paul! - Can't wait to get my G510 it looks way nice than the G15/G19 - I love the way it's only text. I look forward to playing around with it and maybe intregrating some CLI's into the Screen.

[sinblesser]

newegg's tax is horrible -.-

[Disorder92]

the g510 just looks like the g15 0.0 but the g15 looks better to me..

[DeViLzzz2009]

I bought this tonight but won't open it til I find out that they have fixed the skipping mouse pointer problem.

[CarlinRules]

Love your unboxings and reviews, Paul. The camera switching is slightly exaggerated, but it works together nicely. Keep up the good work!

[TheJoeyPostonStream]

Please stop changing the camera every 2 seconds thanks.

[jordandewit]

is this one better then the g500????

[jpeel132]

@jordandewit YES!

the g500 has 3 thumb buttons, this has 4

the sensitivity button on the g500 werent programmable, this one has THREE programmable buttons where the original 2 were

it feels much nicer too and its wireless

[tJustSoup]

I was diggin that pink light lol no joke 

[dunnobutwayne]

don press the windows key or else you DIE :D

[3etwii]

i don't see the use input in the back ?!

[fpsBeaTt]

Just ordered a G700 to replace my ageing G5, combined with a steelseries i-2 mouse pad. Can't wait till they arrive; will post review when I get them.

[spacecrawler]

Boring keyboard...

[ensampojken]

lol, who the fck filmed this? Why is the reviewer switching between multiple cameras all of the time, that's just annoying...

[DirtyPlastic]

Order.........acheved

[Hekynn]

Nice gaming mouse.

[NykvarnAnton]

is the colour change like on G19??

[Zezimahater1]

what monitor is that??? Is the model on sale at newegg???

[mewimi]

Okay a little suggestion... when making a video... do NOT change the camera angle ever 2-5 seconds... it is annoying to the eyes and brain... :/

[fpsBeaTt]

@mewimi lol! This comment actually made my day, and reminded me of a skit I can't quite remember the name of. "I'm here! Now I'm here! Now I'm still here but from over there!"

[M1ster100]

@mewimi You are so stupid for this !

[mewimi]

@M1ster100 Uhhh ? Stupid for being irritated by frequent camera angle changes? Seriously? What kind of logic are you packing?

FYI: Apparently 87 others agree with me.

[darkheat246]

@mewimi annoying to you :P

[mewimi]

@darkheat246 Annoying to 207 people also apparently ;3

[darkheat246]

@mewimi true true but I tend to ignore such things or just listen and switch tabs

[thesmartphonereviews]

@mewimi fuck its annoying

[xion237]

I bet this would be a lot more interesting if they had screens playing something in the background (non-distracting) and some background music (also non-distracting)

[eddles777]

thank god for your channel ~ you're the reborn tigerdirectblog back in the day when they reviewed real pc parts and components with a proper tech guy

[xM1NtYxFr3Shx]

So are these like essentials you're suggesting to gamers or what? Not to be mean, but you just showed us what we could have done ourselves or read off of a manual. How do you compare to others? Ex. I just play SC2 and Warcraft Frozen Throne, would this be of an overkill for that gaming or what?...

[wcoldschool]

great review! like how you showed detailed software info in windows and all the functions with both devices, especially in the dark

[r31ncarnat3d]

@haynakaw999 Because I overclocked mine during the winter, so when spring/summer came around, I wanted to make sure that the CPU/GPU don't overheat when ambient temps rise. I also kept track of usage so if the temps do get too high, I can have an estimate of what point I should downclock to :)

[bilashhossain]

@r31ncarnat3d  lol i was thinking of doing the same thing, but how much do you overclock?

[r31ncarnat3d]

@bilashhossain Before I had a Core 2 Duo e8500 @ 4.1 GHz, and then a Core 2 Quad Q9550 @ 4.0 GHz. Since then I've downgraded to a SFF system and have a minimal overclock of 3.2 GHz on my Q9550.

[r31ncarnat3d]

@haynakaw999 I had it and I found it useful. I overclock my components and kept my temperatures, voltages, and load usage on the LCD. I've since upgraded my keyboard to a Das Model S, but I still think the LCD on the G15 was extremely useful.

[aznb0i313]

Not gonna lie, the G510 with pink leds look badass

[shnish96]

Where can I get that shirt!?

[doubleatheman]

Just got this combo! love them.

[GlintTheStrong]

Main flaw is its wireless. Every gamer knows never to use wireless. Unless they are idiot gamers.

[Razear]

How long is the G510? Just wondering if it will fit into my keyboard tray.

[masskilla469]

Logitech SUCKS with driver support for that reason i would not buy another product from them again

[llollercoaster]

@masskilla469 Are you kidding me, I've bought tons of mice over my life time and logitech have the best drivers by FAR...

[masskilla469]

@llollercoaster Well maybe your the lucky one then

[masskilla469]

maybe the mice might but as far as gaming wheels go they outright SUCK

[TheMelanar]

where'd you get that shirt Paul?! it's fruggin' awesome :D!!

[ee4ee3]

@TheMelanar me 2 i need to know

[darkheat246]

@TheMelanar newegg sells newegg related products you can find the shirt there

[vixiv614]

Paul's exercising his right to bear arms...ba-bum-tsh...

[iExD]

So, who released you from your cage? or are you still trapped and waiting for someone to set you free?

[Kevinmaxtor]

newegg, clean your recording camera I thought my LCD monitor was dirty but its not I checked lol

[phatmonk6195]

why would you need to mash down 3 buttons at once?

[SonicTheFighters]

@phatmonk6195 Depends on the game. But say you're playing a FPS game, you could crouch and move at an angle at the same time. Or if you're quickly hitting the keys, it'll prevent a certain effect that will result in the key presses not being recognized.

[SymmetricPanda]

I never found the need for wireless mouses, the usb port isn't that far away and the cord never really gets in the way. Ill stick with my g9 :x

[BasherCoon]

Brand new product without support for the ...standard windows operating system. Lol.

I love you, Logitech mouse of mine. My old G-15 gaming keyboard was a piece of JUNK though, hopefully the new keyboard is a lot better. I might get one if they fixed the sticky media buttons (and subsequent loss of left-shift, control, and alt keys).

[mikey9890]

@BasherCoon a lot of logitechs products dont have windows 7 support, like my logitech quickcam orbit mp

[BasherCoon]

@mikey9890 Yeah exactly my point. Logitech still makes SOME decent hardware but they need to work on their drivers, and the cheap construction of certain products

[thekillerz12345]

arguing on the internet is like the special olympics. even if you win you're retarded.

[crippecuz]

@thekillerz12345 thats an old comeback, get original

[ManRossDamn]

@thekillerz12345 Old.

Stop following the band wagon, goon.

[davidkolo]

im into the pink lol, why would you need wireless stuff for gaming, maybe a mouse so it doesnt interfere

[deepakm]

Thank you newegg!

[OnixRose]

So G510 vs G19?

[bigdima3]

Its wired :/

[FallenGFX]

@bigdima3 It's a gaming mouse and keyboard, of course it's wired dumbass.

[bigdima3]

@FallenGFX For you information there are wireless mice out there, , big mouthed bitch

[FallenGFX]

@bigdima3 Really? There are wireless mice? I had no idea... No shit you dumbfuck. I'm saying if you want a worth a shit gaming mouse / keyboard it's gonna be wired. No go suck your boyfriends dick and shut the fuck up.

[mrsillyname]

@FallenGFX calm down little man...being tough on the net is cool!!!

[FallenGFX]

@mrsillyname I'm 12 and what is this?

(I'm really a troll sir, pay no attention to me unless I address you)

[ManRossDamn]

@FallenGFX Shut the fuck you up you ignorant fucking low-life little god damn child.

You're worthless, and the parents that fucking taught you profanity are just as useless.

Your mind is like your balls, both are small, and neither is useful.

So get the fuck up off the web and go PLAY OUTSIDE like normal kids.

[FallenGFX]

@ManRossDamn who are you?

[bigdima3]

@ManRossDamn dont be mad @ FallenGFX, , , he's just having his periods, , instead, check his profile out, , (he's fuckin gay dude)

[bigdima3]

@FallenGFX Dont be so emotional baby. . .

[FallenGFX]

@bigdima3 Oh so now you're sweet talking me?

[lil0egy0kid]

GIEF MEH UR TEE SHURT!!!!

[shehanster]

nice Tshirt man 

[Teldara]

Where can I get your shirt.

[p8intballkid]

i have a G500 and its awesome

[tenkirulez]

that video of the keyboard made me jizz...

[shortyman28]

G510 is like G15 1,5, 5,1 0

Still happy with my G15 and G5 mouse

[SeikoPsycho]

Hey Paul... what school did you go to?

[lordmat666]

no windows 7 drivers come on logitech almost every1 switch to win7

[norwegianbocker]

I think thats a little too many G-keys, I have more than enough on my g19 and a better screen :) Ive never used more than like 10 of them.

[Silverexx]

"Your into the pink"

[mitchlin71]

cameraman going mad?

[t3hsniper]

Man I want that G510 to replace my old g15...lights on it are starting to flicker and some of the paint is fading where part of my palm rests.

[MikeTheMovieDude]

I wish I could get paid to be a geek...

[iShinyPidgey]

Are you guys going to do another supreme build with the EVGA Classified SR-2, dual Intel Xeon 5680's, Quad SLI, and 24 GB's of RAM? Pretty sure that outclasses the prior supreme build.

[ANorwayGuy]

@iShinyPidgey that much ram is a waste of money.

[Omellykim]

i love that shirt 

[redholocaust]

wow, they always come out with more stuff i want that I cant afford

[Omellykim]

@redholocaust steal >:)

[Omellykim]

[Omellykim]
