Good afternoon,

Ive decided to get a new mechanicle keyboard for my pc. I own a razer blackwidow ultimate steath (matte black and mx brown edition) but its taken some damage

Im looking for a mechaicle keyboard with either MX Browns or MX Reds, White LED backlighting (rare), and also Dedicated media keys. Ive done some searching and havnt had much luck. I love the corsair k70 with one major exeption it doesn't have white leds. I think its silly that corsair doesnt offer a white led option seeing as all their premium products have white leds. The other option is ducky shine 3 but they dont have dedicated media keys which isnt a huge deal. What do you guys recommend?

Here is where I would keep my frolics if I had any.

Logitech G710+ seems like it would suit you the most.

+1 what he said :) for what you described its a fantastic choice, im considering doing an in depth review on mine because the review on our site said very little about it :/

CM Storm has keyboards with Brown MX Switch with white LED!? Maybe the Quick Fire TK if you want a small design. Or a QF Ultimate if you like a fullsize keyboard, or their recently launched MECH keyboard has all white LEDs on every switch you choose. But its a kinda different design, you either hate it or love it.... Check it out on: www.cmstorm.com

I concur.

 

The Logitech G710+ is a very well-received keyboard. It has a lot of macro buttons, Cherry MX Brown switches and is pretty much rock-solid when it comes to build quality. :)

+1 The G710+ has a bright backlight and their Logitech gaming software is very easy to use imo. The G710+ has O-rings beneath each keycap in order to reduce the noise.
