Hi, I want to buy a new mechanical keyboard and it has to fit to a few criterias... i need it to be backlit because i like it being backlit and its awesome. I also need it to be cherry mx keys(blues or browns). i think thats all the criterias... also, before I forget, good build quiality... but most mechanical keyboards are like this so no need to worry much.. I don't really have a budget but nothing ridiculously expensive////

What would be considered too expensive? You can get mechanical keyboards anywhere from $57-250+ USD, most "gaming" keyboards float around $80-110 USD.

say... happy hacking keyboard professional

i have it myself, it's not that light (just over 1 pound(half a kilo)) it feels really sturdy and has big rubber feet so it doesn't slip

My tip would be the corsair k70. In fact, i am wrighting this comment from my k70 as of this moment. It have an extraordinary good build quality, but it is therefor a bit heavy. The programable keys are a joy to use, and the custom keys they inclute for 1,2,3,4,5,6 and WASD is a really good help when rlocating your hand on the keyboard while gaming. I would recomend either red or browns. As red is really quiet (for gaming standard), and browns have that nice click. But I feel like the blues are to noicy. All the other features ofd the keyboard is really good, such as the volume control, next, etc.
