Looking for keyboard suggestions

[SaladFingers]

Hey everyone. I'm left without a mechanical keyboard and so I'm looking into buying a new one, but I'm pretty lost.

 

I want:

 

1) Black color

2) Red LED/Backlights

3) Cherry MX Red

4) Possibly not more than $150, would be really happy if less

5) Optionally have independent media buttons and not "Fn" style ones.

 

 

Design wise, here's 3 keyboards that I really really like:

 

NZXT/Ducky Shine II/III

Corsair K70 Red (the RGB variant is also nice, but too costly)

DHL Steelseries 6GV2

 

In general I like a minimalist design, nothing too transformer-ish or alien-ish. The red LEDs should be enough cream for my tastes.

Any suggestions welcomed and appreciated!

The Corsair Strafe actually looks very nice, how did I miss that. How does it perform compared to the K70? The RGB version is a bit out of my budget.

Looks a bit too transformer-ish for my tastes.

 

Thanks for the suggestions guys, keep them coming!

ducky shine 4? or the razer blackwidow chroma

the corsair strafe is an amazing keyboard its a k70rgb without the pretty lights. and its got a usb port

Black Widow Chroma is nice, but it's also a bit too expensive around here. Same as the K70 RGB sadly. I wasn't aware there was a ducky shine 4, but that also looks like its going to the RGB aka expensive category and I don't really need any other colors except from red.

 

The Strafe looks very nice, but it's lacking a sleeved cable and all independent media keys (although that's not really important, but I just hate the FN key taking space away from other keys).

 

Hmmmmmm this is a tough choice. Any less known brands?
