Recommendation on <tkl aluminum rgb keyboard

Hello community,

 

Been out of the mech market for a few years and want to be caught up on what's good.

I'm looking for something that is:

* tkl or less

* RGB lighting

* aluminum case

* if no arrow keys, bindable without needing a modifier. Pref arrows bindable to right modifiers FN, Page, ctrl, and shift

 

Are there other backlight compatable keycaps aside from the vortex ones? I'd also like a recommendation on a nice pbt set of key caps.

I got two options for you, but the Logitech is not aliminium and I couldn't check on the Cooler Master:

The Logitech has Romer-G switches whereas the CM has cherry Browns.

 

I don't know a shit ton about keyboards but I hope I was helpful :)

We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now. (dammit @LukeSavenije stop coming up with new ones)

You can check out the old one that gave joy to so many across the land here

You're not gonna get more options for caps. Unless you stray away from Keebs with non standard bottom

 

You can definitely build your own 60% with the preferred caps, programmable PCB, and aluminum case
