I'm going to be getting a gaming computer soon and I really want to get a mechanical keyboard I'd like to keep it around $100 - $130 and have Cherry MX browns. Also I would love to have it backlit but I think that will be out of my price range. Can someone help???

 

Thank in advance Chris

CM Storm Quickfire TK/Ultimate hands down. It's a fantastic keyboard (I have ultimate with browns for 100)

 

Edit: I look at the US CM Store but they only have browns with white back-lighting though. I have browns with red back-lightning (looks sweet as hell) :D.

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

OMG, LOVE IT, That's the one I'm getting if there isn't any others.

You could consider the Logitech G710+

It has uses MX browns, is back lit, has a volume wheel, has additional "G keys" on the left side.

Also when I bought it, the price was ~130€. I live in Finland, so it could be cheaper for you.

EDIT:

better picture.

If it isn't working absolutely perfectly, according to all your assumptions, it is broken.
