Razer BlackWidow Ultimate Review!

[Kamissick]

You look like Sacha Baron Cohen =p

[linglingjr]

why use such a nice keyboard and meh okay but good mouse with that crappy old monitor?

[1234565225]

bit of a nerdy question, but in minecraft the f1 f2 f3 ect. keys are used for removing the hud, screens shots and stuff like that, so if the f keys have the media controls on them can i still use the to do all that minecraft stuff?

[gaminghero47]

@1234565225 Did you listen to the video?

[SteelMembrane]

@1234565225 Like a laptop, you need to hold the FN key to use the media keys, otherwise they act just like normal F keys.

[Rodancoci]

Has anyone ever told you you sort of look like Desmond from the Assasin's Creed games?

[pvtcolin106]

sexy motha fucka

[iWaffleFTW]

can you change the color?

[Alesandros356]

@iWaffleFTW yes...you can actually change it to any color of the rainbow....you just have the program for it installed so you can program it

[narutopcwiz]

What's wrong with CRT Monitor guys?

many PRO Fps gamers are using CRT Monitor because it has no input delay while LCD / LED does have.

[BuzzOfStarCommand]

@narutopcwiz They are so ugly. That's why I now hate anything not in HD. It just looks so bad.

[robertcochransvideos]

"omg my keyboard keys are so hard to push down. I need this." This is so stupid.

[intermsofreality]

@robertcochransvideos I used to think like you, until I actually tried one. Never going back to a regular keyboard again.

[FullAutomagic]

@robertcochransvideos You're missing out.

[Snapscape]

How scratch resistant is the pretty glossy surface?

[aupgnaverim]

CRT Monitor + Razer BlackWidow.....

[RantKid]

wow what high production values

[Hoffman12345n]

stop staring at me!

[xxXXsmithsterXXxx]

Good vid. Dude u look like Example fun times.

[captain3xtreme]

is that a crt monitor?

[seekanddestroy9111]

lol is Reason gaming still active?

[pcgamer010]

@seekanddestroy9111 yep. but d1ablo doesn't play for them anymore.

[Kevtjinn]

Drinking game! everytime he says " So yeah" we take a shot

[OTKuki]

Why is the light so important when you play in the "dark".

I kinda dont need to watch the kayboard when I am writing someting.

So I dont have much use of that.

[supernova1019100]

@OTKuki lol apparently you do need to pay attention to the "kayboard"

[Yayap7]

How is the Microsoft Sidewinder X4 compared to this?? Does the X4 have mechanical keys?

$47-$80 on Newegg..

[LionShion]

How many keys can be pressed at the same time?

I need at least 5 and on the numpad!

[Demsix]

You do realise you have the US (inferior) version of the keyboard?

[killzoneman11]

@Demsix do u realise that no one cares

[Demsix]

@killzoneman11 Enjoy your trashy keyboard then.

[xXReaper937Xx]

All that money in Razer gear,

How bout a new monitor?

lol

[boonhaw13]

@TomNewmanVlog this keyboard looks real nice. If im correct the NKRO is 6 buttons that can be press instantaneously. And there said to be problems if u spam one key really fast that sometimes it wont be readed because of the 2mm actuation distance and the cherry mx blue. Personally I want your personal opinion, do you think cherry mx blue is great for gaming and is this keyboard awesome? :O

[GermanSniperBayArea]

looks like a nice keyboard but i think the jacks for the mic and headphones are on the wrong side its seems like it would be an awkward annoyance to have them there

[Bundles91]

you tought me my laptop had a function button...

[Kelahadar]

@Bundles91 i LOL'd a little...

[miguelmoyas]

You are DIABLO cod4 LAN player?

[deadsearolls]

key's look like ass

[volound]

@deadsearolls what the fuck is that apostrophe doing in there?

[andalite191294]

I love the way you have a really good keyboard, but the screen that you use is absolute crap xD

[Harzzu]

is that USB port 1.0 or 2.0?

[IDAREYOUTOPRESSTHIS]

@Harzzu 2.0

[muzeklijstje]

Yay! Im typing this on my g510 pos keyboard and the screen doesnt boot so here i come razer! :D

[Bachnaify]

I would go with Logitech G19. G19 doesn't have mechanical keys but LCD is very helpful

[kinzenator]

@Bachnaify is the g19 screen configureable on mac?

[Bachnaify]

@kinzenator I don't know, I'm using Windows 7.

[kinzenator]

@Bachnaify okaa, thanks for responding though:)

[Zachzf993]

Is the song in the background from one of your cod4 videos? It sounds very familiar :P

[datrazzgod]

what is the song on the background?

[moyga]

Noob question but there is a number 1 lit up on the top right hand side of my copy of this keyboard, what does that mean? It was not there before. Thanks in advance.

[hjeepisbest]

@moyga its num lock just press num lock on the numpad and it will dissapear

[moyga]

@hjeepisbest

Thanks! I was looking at the manual and it doesn't say what the 1 represents anywhere that I could see.

[TheOrangeMyst]

I own the stealth version of this for two weeks now. No problems with it so far. I tested a few macros work fine, although some reason i always have to load up the keyboard interface then close it everytime the computer turns on initially to use the macros on the keyboard. Weird, but going have to look that up. Other than that, its a sweet looking keyboard...build quality is fine...

[deubdx]

got mine a few days ago and its really noisy, think twice before buying!

[oSyntheSiso]

Hi man. I bought this keyboard today and I love it all accept one thing. I have the glowing effect on and everytime it pulsates it makes a huge buzzing noise. Any ideas?

[TheOrangeMyst]

@oSyntheSiso thats not normal. you should return it and get a new one.

[oSyntheSiso]

@TheOrangeMyst Ahh okay thanks

[wjmeezy]

5:50 thts wat she said :P

[BabyBluga]

I agree i just bought a Logitech illuminated keybord and gaming mouse rather than razer products. the reviews where bad and also the Logitech costed $100 less lol

[virremannen11]

@BabyBluga what are u taling about! the black widow got 9's and 8's everywhere!

[whipydip99]

Also I think that your money is better spent on a Das Leopold something like that. Razer is known to have some pretty bad build quality in their products.

[TheOrangeMyst]

@whipydip99 i have to say when it comes to keyboards...the difference in quality between something like a das and a razer blackwidow, while somewhat noticeable, its pretty inconsequential. What i mean is remember that rubber dome keyboard you had since your first computer? I bet if you plugged that keyboard in now it would still work properly. What im getting as is you don't need a superiorly built keyboard, you just need one that looks cool and has cool shit on it, because it works fine.

[whipydip99]

I think that the media keys are just ugly. Better not to have them in my opinion.

[Kri38]

You are the worst camera man i´v ever seen.

[TheOrangeMyst]

@Kri38 its harder than it looks...really. and obviously, he's not trying to give us movie production quality here with perfect camera angles. its just a review.

[Kri38]

@TheOrangeMyst Movie production, what the fuck are you talking about? Just set the camera up on a tripod, it's not that hard.

[TheOrangeMyst]

@Kri38 BRAH, he isn't trying to film crouching tiger hidden dragon. Why don't you chillax, Try making your own video review of a product, seriously go try it. I actually tried and setting up a tripod and trying to get the best angles and shit is a pain in the ass. There's much more freedom when your handling it with your hands.

[KangPaynus]

I still use my IBM Model M keyboard. I recently purchased a Das from newegg, but it hasn't come in yet. This Razer looks pretty nice.

[TheGamer32121]

i dont like the function, rather have the media buttons at top right like lycosa cuz if im gaming dont want to hv to reach fn key and media keys

[KevinTheScreenKiller]

just got mine love the keyboard!!!!

[samuelrosenbalm]

This is the best keyboard on the market, bar none.

[ztaylor3712]

@samuelrosenbalm *barring real, quality mechanical keyboard brands like ducky/filco/leopold etc

[samuelrosenbalm]

@ztaylor3712 I've been a gamer for several years.

I reluctantly spent $150 on a mouse and keyboard combo - the Razer Death Adder and Razer Black Widow.

This was a long ago.

I've spent thousands of hours using them. I'm a hardcore gamer who plays so many different genres. Look at my page. I will never go back to a membrane after Mechanical. I will never purchase a non-Razer product.

This is by far the best mouse and keyboard I have ever owned - and you know what?

It is not even close.

[ztaylor3712]

@samuelrosenbalm i'm glad you like your periphs and i agree that the blackwidow is a good keyboard. all i'm saying is its not the "best keyboard on the market, bar none." that title is reserved for the majestouch 2 :)

[samuelrosenbalm]

@ztaylor3712 I agree that it is not the best keyboard - but it IS the best one I have ever owned. I just LOVE the sound it makes, and the precision - not to mention the 5 macros on the left, I just love those.

My Death Adder, not the best mouse out there - but it IS the best mouse I ever owned. I would think the Cyborg rat 9 is the best mouse, but I could be wrong. :)

[comneard55]

for me its pretty loud :/

[SuperPrimeFan]

Oh wait i thought this was the blackwidow stealth, im looking for the stealth with the brown switches cause i heard blue switches make double tapping hard

[XxIshxXCwalk]

@NotteBellaEMagnifica lots of things use engineering..... not only spaceships.....

[SuperPrimeFan]

Where do u buy this keyboard im from uk

[TWmovies]

@SuperPrimeFan go to the razer online store they have a UK page

[Lobonaut]

im typing this with my black widow ultimate i just got half an hour ago. it feels really good on the fingers and i already feel like im typing faster than with my old dell keyboard. it takes a little getting used to though cause it feels really responsive and the extra column of macro keys throws me off sometimes.

[TheEntitySeven]

Haha I made it 666 likes

[themightyjoker]

oh you answered my question then np

[themightyjoker]

just a question, does it have like alot of gaming keyboards likea lock key to the windows button? because i play some games there you use alt button sometimes and you sometimes missclick the windows button and the program shuts down :(, does the keyboard have a lock for that? :)

[MrBorninthestates]

Meh, 6Gv2 baby -3

[ollimpa]

There's no different from a mechanical keyboards speed that a human can notice. The only difference is that it sound more compared to other keyboards. I bought the Razer Lycosa and i couldn't be happier.

[Ilikegtasanandreas]

@ollimpa The effort required to press the keys are quite noticeable though.

[ollimpa]

@Ilikegtasanandreas I think the effort of pressing a machanical keyoard is harder than pressing on my Lycosa. I tested both in a store.

[vkmicro2]

dude just 1 question..

u have razer gear, headset keyb mouse even a shirt with razer logo... but... wtf is that screen? O_O

[arkkuz]

@vkmicro2

kids these days.. don't know what a CRT monitor is.

[vkmicro2]

@arkkuz i've used 1 of those when i was like... 7? -_-'' don't call me a kid without knowing how old i am... i just wonder why the hell someone who has razer gear is using such old monitor? if u have nearly 200$ for a keyboard how can u not have another 200$ for a good monitor? lol

[wwwlgbdk]

@vkmicro2 CRT monitors generally have a higher refresh rate than normal LCD monitors. That is way better for games like Counter-Strike and other first person shooters. So there is a reason he owns a CRT monitor and not a shitty LCD monitor.

[arkkuz]

@vkmicro2

Wells sorry, you just made it sound like so. He probably wants higher than 60hz, so instead of for example buying a 120hz monitor he's still using a CRT.

[vkmicro2]

@arkkuz no problem

yeah thats probably the case but still xD CRT is old =/

[Rc1023]

Razers are overrated.

[AbstractReaIity]

Do the keys fade after a while like the lycosa?

[Cash4Woody]

100$ Keyboard, 100 years old screen ..

[DonVitoOR]

@Cash4Woody Probably a FPS gamer. CRT's have higher refresh rates. Higher speeds.

[Cash4Woody]

@DonVitoOR

Then buy a 100hz Monitor...

[ClipEvent96]

Got mine today. I really like it, even though I was supposed to get the 6gv2 (But they didn't have it in store).

[SuperZaizain]

Just bought the keyboard, really satisfied! :>

[MightyBobo]

Holy shit, is that a CRT monitor?

[ZiiRoXy]

Mine suddenly stopped working, what should i do?

[orangeeri]

@ZiiRoXy how much pepsi did you spill in it?

[ZiiRoXy]

@orangeeri nothing -.-'

the other day it worked next day, nope!

[Th3MoTo]

@I2eViLo LOL xD this keyboard is awesome

[I2eViLo]

@Th3MoTo :(

[gen2sega]

why is this keyboard so expensive? the original black widow without baccklight is half this price

[Th3MoTo]

@gen2sega Because of the backlight, I'm setting this keyboard uyp right now :D

[I2eViLo]

@Th3MoTo you asshole. I want it. >:(

[Th3MoTo]

@I2eViLo LOL xD this keyboard is awesome

[Broldin]

Can you change the color of the keys?

[NapFloridian]

Top keyboard... but 100 year old monitor.. 

[CosmicComatose]

Why don't you show what it looks like in the dark. It's the most relevant thing most are probably wondering.

[orcra1]

@CosmicComatose umm how is that relevant?

But to you information it looks blue and is very well lit u

[triangle61]

k, i installed it and restarted my computer so what do i do next? am i done?

[imJu1cey]

is there only blue light? cant u take any other colors?

[Eduardogd2]

@imJu1cey It's only the blue light.

[ZiiRoXy]

my widow suddenly stopped i dont know why if someone knows how to fix it, plz respond!

[Gamewaspofficial]

How do you make it glow, I just got mine, can't figure out how to make it glow

[rankinrulz]

@Gamewaspofficial FN F12

[Notebook43]

@rankinrulz thanks mate :D

[restf0rm]

My blackwidow has a large enter but small left shift.

[itsGamerTv]

Prodragon71 :D

[EnvyMeJJ]

is the keyboard backlight that dim?

[restf0rm]

@EnvyMeJJ You can change it to five different brightness levels, im using it right now and its amazing. I high recommened.

[naminakata87]

no arm rest on this

[CookiesAndGaming]

Key board is incredibly loud 

[maksenDK]

@CookiesAndGaming nice

[1signmein]

amazing keyboard for $80-$90.

[IAMRANDOM4179]

@zezsn1p3r its an lcd douchebag

[zezsn1p3r]

@IAMRANDOM4179 Google the monitor before you call people douchebags. It's called a HP 9500 monitor, and the exact specifications are

HP s9500 Silver/Carbon 19" CRT Monitor.

[zezsn1p3r]

Why the fuck do you have a CRT monitor? You need a new one.

[WirlWind494]

@zezsn1p3r Some people still use them because of higher refresh rates. But, as the guy said, it's an LCD apparently.

[Eiffel61]

has anyone ever said that you look a bit like Jerry Seinfeld? :D I think you do.

[Tleffew1]

How long is the cord?

[Alexanderdanice]

@Tleffew1 around 2 meters

[MrTanner27]

can it change colors to red?

[Alexanderdanice]

@MrTanner27 nop :)

[iDecim4te]

The keyboard is only 80$at the store near me so Ill be picking it up for sure.

[nTELHD]

Youre paying for the brand not the keyboard.

[jewie27]

I have the BF3 Edition

[Legendz4LIF3]

@jewie27 COOL BROOO TELL US MORE!!!

[BrooklynXT1]

Hate that sound, reminds me of being in elementary school 20 years ago. Mechanical keyboards were around 20 years ago. This is just the reintroduction of long forgotten tech.I like my keyboards quite. This sounds like a typewriter.

[ez2animate]

@BrooklynXT1 Stealth edition for the same price reduces the sound and apparently it's silent now.

[ebiljebus]

@ez2animate Except, you know, they're sold out.

[LDNLeon]

Gd vide my o key is brken n my tarantula, I have t press it dwn really fucking hard fr it t wrk. Cnsidering getting a mechanical keybard, hw sturdy are they?

[Costerguy1234556]

Is that a CTR monitor?! O_O

[helloimify]

hii im nafisa,i wanna ask which one is better Razer Blackwidow Ultimate or Steelseries 7G?

btw can i get your email ? or msn ? wanna ask some question about that keyboard

thankies :)

[KibeMadafaka]

This one or the Lycosa..???

[Costerguy1234556]

@KibeMadafaka This.

[WhiteOpsRight]

@KibeMadafaka this if you like mechanical keyboards this one has the MX cherry blue swithes

[GmanSig220]

Learn to speak English properly, that accent is very gay.

[LDNLeon]

@GmanSig220 You're a cunt, he speaks English miles better than you ever will.

[sirpau1]

"it's small...which is how I like it"

That's what you said!

[RyanK733]

Comments for 0.00001ms? I thought 1000Hz polling was 0.001 seconds, but wth. But, I didn't think i'd say this. I'm getting a blackwidow ultimate ^^

[ThePepsiNarkoman]

Ilove how you purchase a really expensive keyboard instead of getting a new monitor xD

[GTASAMPCARS]

i have a deathadder 2 its awesome and was thinking of buying keyboard cheers bro

[staralpha14]

whats with the lowercase "R" ?

[jumbosmalls]

Don't care much for LED lights and all the flashy stuff. but its ok to have as long as you don't have a GIAGANTOR LED LIGHT coming from a bar on the top with 40 different macros you wont use.

[joxxe94]

Smooth - Treasure :D

[Krifalo]

@DaGleese Do your research. There really is a huge difference. Also, looks don't matter at all, to me anyways.

[DaGleese]

tbh for all the excellent reviews i've heard for this keyboard, it looks pretty tacky

and what exactly is the advantage of a mechanical keyboard?

the saitek eclipse III i have atm looks cooler than this, and i don't think replacing it with a 'mechincal keyboard' would cause me to win any more games

what is there like a 0.00001 ms increase in response time or something?

[admiralbullshit]

@DaGleese You don't "get" it :-p I didn't understand what was so special about mech keyboards until I tried a display model at Fry's. It feels and sounds so satisfying to type on... so don't knock it til ya try it!

[DaGleese]

@admiralbullshit yeah i was only knocking the asthetics of it, it just looks somewhat incomplete

but i was not knocking it for being a mechanical keyboard, i just genuinely didnt know what the benefit of one was, thanks for informing me!

(are the keys louder or quieter than regular keys?)

@DaGleese They're usually louder. You know that typing sound they use in movies to indicate that som
