Hi,

 

I want a new keyboard but I really don't know what to get. I'm currently running a Corsair k70 LUX RGB with MX Red switched but I want something new.

 

I want a 60% keyboard with blue switches that is RGB. If it's low profile and wireless, those would be bonuses but certainly not required. 

 

I saw the new Corsair K65 mini but unfortunately no blue switches. If anyone knows of any keyboard like the one I described please let me know.

 

Thanks so much

Do you have a budget? Do you want any "blue" switches, or do you just want clicky switches?

I'll spend up to $250 CAD. It can go over a bit I don't really care. Also yeh I just want clicky switches, the reds are nice but I got bored of them quickly.

If you're into that stuff you can build your own with that budget. There's plenty of sites where you can find everything you need and it's not very hard to build your own. You literally just pick the keycaps, case, switches etc and then assemble it.

 

This way you'll get everything you want. And those sites also has pre-built ones that are very nice. Or pre-selected kits that have everything you need to just assemble it. Be sure to pick a hot-swap PCB though otherwise you need to solder the switches to it. 

 

Edit: This is the site I'm gonna be using soon to build my custom keyboard https://kprepublic.com/collections/ktec-series

gmmk 60% hotswappable with kailh box white or kailh box navy and the keycaps you like could do the trick.  Those are the nicest click I've had ... the difference between them is that the box navy is heavier with thicker clickbar than the box white so if you're not used to heavy switches maybe you should get the kailh box white. 

 

Kemove snowfox or shadow is also a nice hotswappable board to look at ...
