Need help finding a mechanical keyboard.

Ripull

I've spent a long time trying to find the right one but just can't.

It needs to have/be:

-Wired

-Wrist rest

-UK/Ireland layout

-FULL SIZE ENTER KEY. THAT'S SUPER IMPORTANT X_X

-Backlit (bonus points for customisability)

-Macro keys

-Cherry MX brown switches

-Full size (number pad included).

I don't really have a budget, but I obviously wouldn't want to pay tons.

Thanks.

I wouldn't pay such a stark premium over the non RGB version just fro customization lights. Is there a non-RGB version with a large enter key?

Since you need macro keys, wrist rest, and brown switches. Your options will be very limited.

 

The only ones I can think of on top of my head would be the Corsair K95, along with the Logitech G710+.

Then you have two other keyboards from Razer and Logitech again which has MX Brown-esque switches.

 

All of these keyboards come at quite the premium, G710+ probably being the cheapest one of the lot.

Yes they do 

 

By "full Sized" do you mean ISO format?

Hi Ripull,I have some suggestions based on your desried keyboard but I don't really know what do you mean by ''full size enter key''. if you don't wanna pay tons for it, corsair k70 or tesoro durandal ultimate is pretty good. Currently im using Ducky Shine 3 but it doesnt have macro so Im nt going to put it in my suggestions otherwise it could be another great choice for you. :)

Why do you need that enter key so freaking badly...? You'd open up your range exponentially if you just used a normal enter key.

I've used large enter keys for the last 14 years non-stop.

I've used both. The large enter key places less useful keys in an easier range for your fingers. I cannot find anything that fits your criteria because of that enter key. I'm pretty sure that's because you need special stabilizers for that style of Enter key.

See, I could probably get used to it, it's just that the enter key is so much like the backspace key that it makes me cringe.

 

I always thought the L shape enter keys were the most common types found on keyboards, but I very surprised now to find that is not the case.
