ah, well the corsair k65 and strafe are good options a that price range. both have fully mechanical keyboards, full rgb, and im typing on inw right now, so i guess im biased. and i thought you meant atmosperes for a second when you said "atm". lol i was very confused.

Tbh I would say just get the Strafe for $90. Thats a good price for a full size, mech keyboard with Cherry switches, especially from a reputable company.
