membrane keyboard, review here:

 

https://www.tomsguide.com/us/logitech-g105-keyboard,review-2303.html

 

ive used a cooler master devastator 2 and it was great for the price i bought it for (30 CAD) 

comes with a keyboard and a mouse, keyboard is pretty good (MX redish, but membrane bump/resistance) and sounds like a hybrid between a membrane and a MX keyboard

mouse is.. usable. not the best but not the worst, will do casual CS with no problem 

Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017)

Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 

138 is a good number.

do you care for macros?

can you wait longer while using your regular keyboard (the review says it will probably feel the same as your keyboard already) to get an actual mechanical keyboard?

I guess so. But if you look up a bit more you could potentially get a used mechanical kb. Got a G710+ for 60 CAD and very happy

Ok I'm looking into buying a new keyboard right now

Cooler master devastator 2 is absolute garbage. I am on my third replacement and don't even use it anymore. Failing keys and they felt like trash from the beginning anyway, save your money and get something better. Watch Linus's video on cheap mechanical keyboards or stick to what you have.

it's not mechanical, and for $50 new it's not worth.

@grimreeper132 @deXxterlab97 @fixitnow @themctipers @jeffmeyer5295 I got a keyboard (cheap knockoff blues) no macros (couldn't find on in my budget) and it's RGB but ok at best but it's about time for me to get off of membrane keyboards
