I'd go with the G15 Version II. Out of experience I can say it's the best keyboard I've ever used. The LCD is invaluable, especially when you need to monitor temps in-game, and macros are a great addition.

Are you referring to the Logitech G15 2007 Programmable LCD Gaming Keyboard (http://benchmarkreviews.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=83&Itemid=65)?

Yeah. I've had mine for almost 2 years, and I'd buy another one if this one broke.

I'm using and like my microsoft ergonomic wireless keyboard. It has a good feel and is comfortable to use

What's the best keyboard to pair with the Sentinel Advance gaming mouse?

Its subjective of course. There are many options out there. I recently went with the Logitech 920-000914 ultrathin illuminated kb. Mainly I think a lot of the gaming kbs out there are a little on the huge side for me. I would like some lightly illuminated keys tho, and this one seems to be a good one.

I don't use any particular keyboard, either a cheap HP/Dell or slimline wireless Logitech.

Personally I waiting for the Optimus Maximus :)

I still think the G15 is the crown jewel of Gaming Keyboards. With that many dpi its massive footprint shouldn't be an option.

I play with a G11 and it has stood up to millions of hours of game play and has back lit keys to find your place again after a hectic fire fight. Everything else is extra.

Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard... i have Fibromyalgia so the keyboards most import feature is it's comfort. this Microsoft keyboard's split design with a built in wrist pad is the best i've found. also they are available on ebay for pretty cheap.

MS SiderWinder X6, got it a couple of months ago and i couldn't be happier, the extra low profile keys and their feel is just amazing.
besides, it looks slick :P

I think that either the Logitech G15 or the Razer Lycosa are just perfect to go along with the CM Storm Sentinel Advance Gaming Mouse. :D

GOOD LUCK everyone! ;)

the only gaming keyboard I've tried is a Razer Lycosa but I wasn't really impress so I guess I'll stick with my generic MS keyboard. Facebook name: Clayton Chabannes

I have used a Logitech keyboard (Classic Keyboard 200) for a while now. It's a very basic introductory keyboard and inexpensive. I have had bad luck with keyboards getting wet and shorting out, so the reason for choosing this one is that if it dies on me I won't have to take out a home equity loan to replace it! I recommend that any keyboard you are considering be water resistant - some I've looked at make the claim that they are.

Oh wow.. Guess I better get my entry in here then.

I'm going to go with the keyboard I'm currently using, the Mocrosoft Digital Media keyboard. I don't need anything fancy, just a keyboard that's reliable and one that has the enter-backslash-backspace formatting I like. This one seems to work fine. I also find that MS keyboards tend to keep the silk screening on the keys longer than some others. Nothing more annoying than a bunch of blank WASD keys...

On FB, I'm already your fan and the name is Justin Ashburn.

The mouse showed up this weekend. I had a house full of family all weekend so gaming time has been limited. I was able to get a little Crysis in and so far I really like the mouse. It fits in your hand well and the buttons are well placed. The LEDs are nice and not overly bright. I agree with the BMR review that the scroll button is a little too stiff but overall I am impressed with CM's gaming mouse. I'll get a couple of pictures up soon.
