Azio MGK L80 RGB Mechanical Keyboard any good?

I am in the market for a new mechanical keyboard and I found the Azio MGK L80 RGB Mechanical Keyboard on Massdrop for $79.99. I type a lot and game a little bit on the side. I was wondering if anybody has experience with this keyboard and if it is any good. I know that it does not have cherry switches, but I have never used a mechanical keyboard before so it does not matter too much to me. If you have any other recommendations for a different keyboard these are my restraints:

  • under $100 USD including shipping
  • needs a numpad
  • needs media controls
  • needs a wrist rest
  • preferably RGB lit
  • preferably floating keys style
  • does NOT need cherry switches although those would be great

 

I have never used a mechanical keyboard so anything is an upgrade for me. All thoughts are appreciated.

Please Quote or tag me @GigabitXe to make sure I see your reply.

I really want full RGB customization (software not necessary) and I know that this is a lot to ask at this price point, but I have seen some around. If you have any thoughts on the Azio one I would appreciate them.
