I had a very similar thing, only I threw a 14 story building out of a pool and hit a kid on a paper aeroplane.


The Flood is just this awesome :D

Whenever I play a game, the keyboard lags behind and either responds 5-10 seconds after the press or doesn't respond at all. It even happens as I type, but less severe as in games. The games I was playing were Minecraft and Far Cry 3, but they ran very smoothly and barely had an effect on my PC. I've scanned with MalwareBytes and it came up with no bad files, so it's not a virus causing this.

What's wrong with my keyboard? Do I need a new one?

Try cleaning it. You may have grime inside it.

I doubt I have grime in it because this is only a week or so old. Looking at it there's no visible sign of dirt or other things stuck in it. I take care of my things very well, especially if it's something like my computer.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

I have no idea what could be doing that.
Maybe there is something that can help you on the keyboard company's site? Good luck.

CPU? New keyboard? Crappy PC?

My CPU is an i7 3770 with a 7770, I really doubt it's my PC causing this. Also, it's barely a month old, so I highly doubt it would be a hardware type of problem.

My keyboard is a Logitech K350. It didn't cost much, but it shouldn't fail after a week of use.

I'm using a backup keyboard right now and everything seems to be working fine now. Guess it was the keyboard being defective or faulty. Thanks for the help.
