Im buying a new keyboard today, need something in the £40 to £50 range, any help?

A quick look through Amazon.co.uk shows there are a few mechanical keyboards you could get around that price, as long as you want that mechanical feeling.

Rapoo V500 (Kailh)

If you were to save up more, you'd open up to some more reputable options at around £70 - £80 range, like CM Storm Quickfires.

Then I'd probably just get whatever looks the nicest to you from a reputable brand like Logitech (G105), SteelSeries (Apex Raw) and Corsair (K30 & K40). There really isn't any super stand-out membrane boards. Microsoft Sidewinder X4 used to be my go-to recommendation for a membrane board but it seems to be hard to find these days.

This will sound dumb, I know, but the Logitech K120 is the absolute most amazing-feeling rubber dome keyboard ever. I love the thing. We have a few at school and I wish that they would let me swap some old rubber dome keyboards around that I have.
