From what I've read about Razer keyboards from customers, they are not the best quality and some models break easily. I would also say that unless you really need and can feel differences in input latency on keyboards, most gamer keyboards don't really offer that much for the money.

 

Other brands in the budget custom space offer better value for the money imho. Often recommended brands here are Nuphy and Keychron, but if you look for custom keyboards on YT a bit, you should find a lot of new really good stuff was released in the last year or so.

 

At the very least I would recommend to consider only boards with hotswap sockets, as that allows you both to replace broken switches and to not be tied to just one type of switches. Switches alone are much cheaper than I full board, naturally.

Could be, but recently there were reports on the Blackwidow 75% V4 indicating that they are currently dying really quickly. Like one guy reported that he is on his forth board since last fall, with many similar 1 star reviews on listings on amazon.com.
