What headphones do you guys use? I broke my pair and need some new ones...My gaming pair is my Audio Technica ATH-AD900's. It's the best gaming headset that you can get for $200.

Get this if you desire a keyboard with blacks.
And this if you want browns.Just be aware that both of these keyboards use Cherry stabilizers. They're better for switching keycaps, but don't have that "mechanical" feel that Filco, WASD, CM Rapid, CM Trigger, and Rosewill Non-Illuminateds have.

I guess a mechanical keyboard and sound card will be my next purchases after I put everything together. Also, what are the best mech. keyboard companies?For low end, Cooler Master and Rosewill. For mid-range, Filco and Ducky. For high-end, Topre and HHKB. It also depends on if you want tenkeyless, backlighting, macros, media buttons, audio passthrough, usb ports, wireless, etc.

Basically, blacks are best for gaming, blues for typing and brown for both of them. Any mechanical keyboard is infinitely better than a membrane keyboard.To expand upon this, blues are the only keys whose activation point is below the physical click point, so you'll want to either get O-rings for bottoming out or deal with the loudness. Reds are better than blacks for FPS gaming.

People love the audible click. Well, to be honest, it's dependant on the switch type.
You can refer to this guide.That guide is years outdated. I'd suggest looking at some of the links below for future reference.
