60% and tenkeyless for gaming?

[PureFetus]

Hey guys, I'm thinking of getting the Ducky Mini, or the Corsair Strafe for my new setup. Is the Ducky Mini good for gaming even though it's a 60% keyboard? Do you guys have any experience in gaming in one or two of these? I wanna hear your opinion.

This really isn't something you should need someone else's opinion on. Do YOU think you can make do with a 60%? Can you deal with the loss of convenient dedicated arrow and navigation keys? If so, get a 60. If you don't think you can, get a TKL. This decision should be guided by what type of games you mostly play.

many people like tenkeyless keyboards for gaming (the quickfire TK is a popular choice). ultimately it is up to you if you prefer a smaller keyboard or full sized.

ducky makes some pretty nice basic keyboards, though they tend not to have too many flashy features. i've not heard of the corsair strafe but their larger keyboards are not bad.

personally i prefer a full sized board since i use arrow keys + numpad instead of wasd + number row but everyones opinion differs.

i'll be mostly playing FPS games like, Battlefield: Hardline, Arma 3, CS:GO, Rainbow Six: Seige, etc. And some third person games like, Metal Gear Solid: The Phantom Pain, Grand Theft Auto V, etc.

i use TKL from ducky also as i have limited space (to give more space for my mouse),
but if you need to input numbers often, then it would not be good

i like the build of ducky, a lot better than my previous razer (yeah i know) mech keyboard
