OCZ Alchemy Elixer Keyboard

[LOUISSSSS]

so i'm playing my favorite game (CS:Source) and i can't press ctrl+ space bar at the same time. wtf is this? who the hell would make a keyboard that can't press more than 1 key at the same time?

and does anyone have experience with the OCZ program and binding keys for CS?

I'm sorry to tell you but that keyboard does not let you press mutiple keys.

Ripped from a review at the Egg.


Pros: This keyboard has made me angry?

Cons: So I have spoken with ocz reps about the key press issue, They are very rude by the way. The issue is with the matrix of the keyboard, drivers cannot fix the the issue that i have with this keyboard. oh ya, after playing with it i learned that you cannot even crouch jump in a game. if you are pressing the space bar you cannot use the ctrl button, and if you are pressing the ctrl button you cannot use the space bar. I bought this keyboard as a gaming keyboard as it was advertised. I am furious with ocz customer service and their blatant false advertising, You CANNOT game with a keyboard that won't let you press ctrl and space bar at the same time! Again i am very very frustrated.

Other Thoughts: please do not buy this or any other ocz products, if you want an ocz product, please take the time to explore their forums and learn how they treat their customers. and ocz, please let me know if there is anyway we can resolve this issue because i dont like holding grudges but you guys are really disappointing me.

lmfao... someone was cutting corners.

use mouse 2 for jump and by matrix do you mean each row of keys can only have one active at a time? how are you supposed to walk in a diagonal using wsad then?

Wow, that's a pretty big fail for a keyboard. On my main rig I'm still using a PS/2 keyboard I bought a decade ago for $3 and I can do multiple keys just fine.

hahahahahahahahhahahaha you've got to be kidding me

It makes sense. People buy keyboards for colors, lights, knobs and marketing, not for actual quality.

Only from OCZ...

I call this one the "big fail" keyboard.

That's why it was only .99 after MIR.
