Mechanical Keyboard for ~£100

[WILL_I_AMS]

Hi,

 

I am looking for a mechanical keyboard to replace my current Roccat Isku, would this be a worthwhile upgrade? I would like Blue switches with a full blue backlight,  I have seen the CM Storm Quickfire TK and the Ducky Shine Zero, are there any others for around this price point. Also according to the manual of the Ducky Keyboard it has independent lighting for different zones although I haven't seen anyone mention this in reviews.

The QuickFire TK is a solid keyboard, but so is the Ducky.

There are available on Amazon UK http://amzn.to/1r4t4Db but they are £119 and you have to wait a few weeks so

I like the looks of the TK, but how awkward do you find the numpad/arrow key combination to be?

Not very. It gets a bit of taking used to but the build quality is outstanding and the LED's are insanely right. I also like the usb as you can disconnect it from the keyboard itself. I don't really use the arrow keys its much easier to just use the mouse but it can also be easy to do if you really want to use the arrow keys.
