do you want a numpad? also do you have any idea of which key switch you like?

The Logitech G410 Atlas Spectrum RGB Tenkeyless is what I was looking at. It is under $150 on Newegg but I am not sure what the best retailers in Australia are.

EDIT: It uses romer-g keys. You'll have to do some research on it and see whether you'll like them.

IMO the G810 is an awesome choice with 10/10 backlighting, the tenkeyless MasterKeys Pro S would be amazing if you are tight on space and don't need a numpad.  I've heard good things about the km570 as well and I threw in the corsair because I'm a huge fan of the k65 and the strafe has gorgeous backlighting.

I have a Reidea KM06(?).  I grabbed it for $50 on sale off amazon, it has full RGB that you can customize with some okay I guess software, and red mechanical keyswitches (linear/silent).  It feels surprisingly solid for how little it costs because the back of the keyboard is made of aluminum.

 

I'd recommend it for sure.  I'd adore the thing if I could get it with brown keyswitches.

SFF-ish:  Ryzen 5 1600X, Asrock AB350M Pro4, 16GB Corsair LPX 3200, Sapphire R9 Fury Nitro -75mV, 512gb Plextor Nvme m.2, 512gb Sandisk SATA m.2, Cryorig H7, stuffed into an Inwin 301 with rgb front panel mod.  LG27UD58.

 

Aging Workhorse:  Phenom II X6 1090T Black (4GHz #Yolo), 16GB Corsair XMS 1333, RX 470 Red Devil 4gb (Sold for $330 to Cryptominers), HD6850 1gb, Hilariously overkill Asus Crosshair V, 240gb Sandisk SSD Plus, 4TB's worth of mechanical drives, and a bunch of water/glycol.  Coming soon:  Bykski CPU block, whatever cheap Polaris 10 GPU I can get once miners start unloading them.

 

MintyFreshMedia:  Thinkserver TS130 with i3-3220, 4gb ecc ram, 120GB Toshiba/OCZ SSD booting Linux Mint XFCE, 2TB Hitachi Ultrastar.  In Progress:  3D printed drive mounts, 4 2TB ultrastars in RAID 5.

Absolutely battling this issue atm. I am in Australia too.

Narrowed down to.

The Logitech Pro g TKL

http://cplonline.com.au/gaming-products/keyboards/logitech-920-008296-pro-mechanical-tkl-gaming-kbd.html

And.

Cooler Master Pro S TKL in Browns or maybe Blues. Computer is currently in the bedroom and don't want to disturb the wife too much when typing.

http://cplonline.com.au/gaming-products/keyboards/coolermaster-masterkeys-pro-s-mechanical-keyboard-cherry-mx-blue-switch-36962.html

Both are just under $150 which is why it is so difficult. a $20 difference would help swing my choice.
I keep going back and forth... Guess I couldn't go wrong with either. My work keyboard is a Ducky with browns so I guess the cooler master with browns would be closest to that. But that doesn't concern me all the much to be honest.

Decisions, decisions, decisions
