Hello everyone, I am in the market for a new full-size keyboard as I transition from a laptop to desktop as my primary computing tool, and as such I am in a particular predicament.

I am really really annoyed by loud clicky keyboards. Cherry mx red switches are on the absolute upper end of my tolerance for loudness (indeed one of the reasons I have held onto my laptop usage for so long is because how quite the keys are in-comparison to just about all mechanical keyboards I have tried.)

I use a 19-button mmo razer naga for all my gaming and productivity uses, because it fits my hand quite well, and as a result I don't particularly require bells and whistles (macro keys), but I do expect quality and am willing to pay for such.

Numerous levels of angle and height adjustment are also major requirements. Any suggestions?

I saw this on JayzTwoCents so here's my copy-pasted response xD

I would recommend the Logitech G710+ as it uses o-rings to silence the switches and can be adjusted quite a bit.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.
