Hi i'm finally looking for an new keyboard. 

Here's what i would like.

 

Important

 - Kailh BOX Jade or Navy's

 - full size layout with numpad

 

Nice to have's (i will compromise these if it means i can actually get a keyboard)

- UK English layout (as apposed to US)

- Black

 

P.S. i am UK Based so i can't get anything that won't ship here

 

P.P.S. any help would be awesome. 

 

P.P.P.S. i am aware that going down to a 10 key-less or a 60% would massively increase options but i am a bit stuck in the mud with my love of the dedicated numpad and function key's

 

P.P.P.P.S. i'm putting this topic up because i have had no luck yet finding anything.

Bikes - Honda CBR 900RR (1993), MV Augsta F4 750 SPR (2003),  Kawasaki ZX25R (2021)

 

Main Rig - AMD Ryzen 5900x, Asus Tuf X570 , Zotac GTX1080ti, 32Gb Patriot Viper Steel, Samsung 970 Pro 250GB

SteelSeries and Corsair makes some nasty keyboards. What's your budget ?

i would prefer to be on the low side of 150USD

 

corsair's website only lists cherry's and having tride blue's along side the BOX Navys i didn't like them nearly as much

 

however if they are user swapabble switches (without soldering) i have found that i can get 110 kailh's for a price i am willin to pay if the key board is aroun 90USD.

Not sure about the swappable option, Corsair makes some decent mid range keyboards, but another company might be the way to go for sub $100.

logitech make the pro x which is swappable but after buying switches it would cost about 200 USD which is a bit more that i want to spend on a keyboard without a numpad.

i was kind of hoping for a less expensive option.

i spent most of my disposable income for this year on the latest Ducati, and i managed to crash the Yamaha recently.

 

i do get the point though.

everybody want's to save some where.

 

P.S. there is a reason i have my bikes before my rig in the signature.

Consider this one : https://www.pcgamingrace.com/products/gmmk-full-brown-switch in iso layout with keycaps but no switches it will cost 85 bucks. Click on customize and choose what you like, it's a hotswap.
