~$70 keyboards?

[Manchineel]

Looking for a new keyboard to go with a PC i will be building later this month. I would like to spend not much more than $70 on it. I was thinking about getting the Enthusiast Backlit Full Size OUTEMU Red Switch Mechanical Keyboard . 

My only requirements for the keyboard are red/brown switches (never had a mech keyboard before) and backlighting as my room is pretty dark.

cooler master quickfire?

cooler master quickfire for cherry switches else the keyboard you linked with OUTEMU switches should be fine, have a OUTEMU black keyboard and it feels completely fine (although it is my first linear switch but every key feels consistent and smooth so as long as they all feel the same on one keyboard then I don't mind it )

Wait for the holiday sales if all you have is $70. I got an G710 for $50 on black friday last year, Best Buy was doing something like a 50% off Logitech stuff, funny it wasn't 50% off msrp, it was 50% off whatever they were selling it for at the time, hence the $50 G710.

then maybe i will just get a super cheap one for now and upgrade later. I am looking to build a pc this month and I currently have no keyboard, although I should probably just wait to get the whole thing

I'm sure someone somewhere near you has a spare membrane keyboard laying around.
