Anyone got a review on a G-skill keyboard? Specifically the KM780R? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0186W6QG0/ref=abs_brd_tag_dp?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

@xephoneration recommended me a KM780 (non-R) on another thread, saying he loved his. Maybe he can help you.

I have the G.SKILL RIPJAWS KM780R MX Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, Cherry MX Blue. The difference is just the switches and RGB so here is my experience with mine so far. Also I got mine on a Newegg Shell Shock deal for $75

 

 

If you are looking for a "cheap" Back-light Cherry MX mechanical keyboard it is really awesome. It has the same features as the RGB version (minus the RGB of course), in the software. The keyboard is extremely well made and is extremely sturdy and will not flex though the keyboard does have some weight, being expected since the face plate is brushed aluminum. The mouse tension on the keyboard is a god send and will help you a ton if you have a wired mouse so that your mouse cable is not all over the place. I love the metal volume control as well the display. Macro wise it is alright, what I like about it is that you can load custom macro files and save it as a profile for M1-M3 and have multiple profiles as such. There are a few bugs here and there but G.Skill is actively updating its software and has improved over the time. The palm rest is a non slip hard plastic which I do not like. Though one feature I do love is the rail on the back of the keyboard. I made a custom phone mount/charging station via 3D printing and I use the USB port on the Keyboard to charge my LG G3. Other than that Excellent build quality in general and I absolutely love it. If there is any questions that you have that I can address directly let me know.
