Searching for a New Mechanical Keyboard

Either cherry mx brown or red. Something that makes the keyboard light up like a corsair keyboard. Anything under $190. Thanks!

 I'd say the K70 would be a worthy investment.

this represents everything I could ever drool over in a keyboard. aluminum baseplate brushed in black, blue switches, red lights, optional textured keys.

one more thing about the corsair keyboards that don't get enough attention: that volume wheel. easily the most pleasant part of my K90 to use.

 

edit: oh year you want RED switches

then this is the link:

By "light-up" do you mean RGB lighting? Because that's unlikely to happen seeing how Corsair is recalling and/or not selling any more of their RGB keyboards because of the numerous issues with them.

 

Maybe look at something from Ducky?

Wha-what? What's the issue with Corsair RGB keyboards? Just asking to know.

The Func KB460 is what I have and I think it's pretty damn good. It's got a very simple design with a nice soft touch plastic coating and an aluminium backplate that really makes the red LEDs glow. It does have a wrist rest, but the clips that attach it seem to be flimsy but it still works just fine without them.

I'm pretty sure they fixed all problems with the lighting on the K70 and the like. There shouldn't be any lighting issues with the way the LEDs are implemented.

Cherry mx red or brown is fine. What I mean by light is that the keys has led lights. What I've seen from Ducky is that only some of their models have the numb pad.
