Hi there everybody

 

For some time I'm looking for keyboard that is relatively cheap and have compact layout (without numpad). Exactly, my point is to find keyboard that looks like CM Storm Quick Fire Rapid but with membrane buttons. Maby You have some suguestions ?

 

Any interest in the subject would be nice.

 

Peace

Sorry for my low english, but I'm trying my best  ;)

I'm trying to cut the budget as much as possible. If someone would have a proposal the cheapest mechanical keyboard, it will be great.

Tesoro are ok, they use Kaihl switches which are cheap copies of Cherry MX its $70 right? why not just spend $10 more and get the cooler master

save $10 more and get the Cooler Master, it last longer...... (this actually depends on how you use it though...so yeah, depends. But should be a tank for normal usage)

Wow I didn't know they use Kaihl switches. I thought they use Cherry. Thanks for the information. 

Ok. So, CM Storm Quickfire Rapid will be a good choice?

 

btw: Are Kailh switches are really that bad ?

I'm not a hard core gamer (I spend a quite a lot of time at the computer, but the more I click a mouse than the keyboard :) ). But i think that I will choice CM,
