Anyone tried this with gaming? And does it have backlight for night?

yeah, i use it a lot for gaming, its the best keyboard for me since i use my tv as a screen so i need wireless. the only really bad thing about this keyboard is the left Ctrl key. its hard to press. which sucks because games use Ctrl for a lot of things. but you can always rebind that key to something else.

Yeah. I use it exclusively for gaming. Works pretty good. What do I play? BF3, 4, Hawken, CoDs, Crysis 2, 3 and some UT3. For something that's 20 bucks, it aint bad. If it breaks, I'll just go buy another one. I use a Logitech EX110 for work purposes. What's my game stuff? Intel i7 3770 cpu, Asus P8z77-V LK motherboard, WD 2.5 Velociraptor HDD, XFX HD7950 gpu, G.Skill 16gb 19200 ram, Corsair RM750 psu, Corsair H100i liquid cooler.

I have used the keyboard for gaming... I found no issues, but I have not tried it extensively. It is obviously not a high-end gaming keyboard, but it should work fine for some light gaming. There is no backlight in this keyboard.

I haven't tried this for gaming but I use it for programming with an excellent response and performance! This one does not have backlight! I do have another model from Logitech that is specifically what you are looking for and I really recommend it. It's the K800.

It's not really designed for gaming, but excellent for general use and programming. Light gaming has no issues, but if you want something more suited for gaming, you'd probably be better off using another keyboard. There is no backlight.

I play World of Warcraft and League of Legends with this keyboard, I don't know what you classify as gaming but it does the trick. Does not have backlight keys but keep in mind playing computer in the dark is very bad for your eyes anyway.

Yes. There is a button on the keyboard where you can toggle the backlighting off and on.

I guess I should be more specific. Anyone find a KVM that will allow this keyboard to light up? It will work as a standard non-lit keyboard with any KVM but no backlight and what good is that?

Just the Razer signature green backlighting. You can choose brightness but just one color.

I tried it in a semi dark room. It is quite difficult to read. There is no back lighting.

For me it's about an hour, maybe a little longer on gaming mode. About 2hr and 15 min on balanced mode, just depends on what you are running, brightness etc. It has never died on me when I needed it though.

Sorry I do not use it for gaming, but have no complaints in using it for other purposes. It is working great.

Not at the moment, maybe I don't turn it on for long time usage, as each session on lasts about half an hour. Also, no heavy gaming so far.

I definitely would not recommend for gaming. I use it on my desktop at work. It is fine for that, but it does pause quite a bit at times.

It is not backlit. I love the touch-screen interface with Windows 8 on this computer though :) Good Luck

Yes you can. You can turn it on or off and also adjust the brightness as well. Its pretty cool and convenient so you can get the best gaming experience.

Although it's not very bright, i tried it on my xbox and it was too dark to do gaming

no, it is not backlit....I actually use it with a monitor and wireless keyboard. Performance has been good....knock on wood!

No, the keys are not back-lit. They are just like any standard keyboard, but with the extra buttons that maybe used for gaming.

The picture and brightess seem excellent to me. In a dark room when I turn it on it seems really bright for a few seconds .??Is this backlight bleedthrough? Black seems very black. The built in speakers are not adequate and if you do any music or sound for that matter, use auxiliary speakers for sure.

I did miss the backlit keyboard. I often pick up my laptop at night when I'm watching tv in a darker room. This laptop was difficult to use in that environment.
