    Just got a brand new gt870r-057us from newegg.

    Quick question for owners:
    Do any of you have an issue where CTRL button click doesn't register if you push the very edge of the left CTRL button (as opposed to dead center)?

    Perhaps this is just a regular issue with chiclet style keys...lots of keys have this issue (backspace, space, etc.)

    Due to the style of the keyboard, that can sometimes be an issue, however some chiclet keyboards are more sensitive than others. I would expect that would be a symptom of how it registers the keystroke if it works fine when you press it from the center.
