Looking for a new keyboard

Good afternoon!

 

I’m thinking about the CoolerMaster Masterkeys M with the cherry MX Reds, but I still want to try the Cherry MX Speed, as far as it is faster/better for fast pacing games

 

Here's the list of the characteristics I would like my keyboard

  • Price: 1 - 130 US Dollars on AMAZON

  • Backlighting : Yes, any color (RGB are welcome too)

  • Size : Preferably tenkeyless

  • Use: Games (I will still use my Masterkeys M with Cherry MX Blues)

  • Macro keys : Naaah, I don't need those

  • Media keys: Yes, preferably dedicated (Can be “function based”)

  • Layout : US (I'll be using the international layout)

  • Switch type : Linear, for fast action gameplay, preferably Cherry MX Red or Speed.

  • I need a detachable USB cable: I will be changing between keyboards, as I already have a CoolerMaster Masterkeys M with Cherry MX Blues and I still like to use it sometimes, and cable management is complicated in my setup, so changing keyboards isn’t an option.

  • I would like something STURDY. I do Rage sometimes (Yea.... ;-wink.gif and the peripherals suffer a bit from it... My Cougar 700K and Corsair k70 handled well, but I can't say much the same about the Blackwidow.... (It wasn't completely broken, but it broke a bit).

  • I live in Brazil Then, I just can't be buying constantly the same keyboard over and over, I need one that can last me at least 1 year, I am lucky that I got a chance to go to US again. I'm going to US after Christmas

Get a Masterkeys Pro S, but only buy Reds or Speeds if you're just gaming. I personally would rather use a cheap membrane keyboard than a linear switch keyboard for typing.

ive had all these gaming keyboards u can imagine, and nah they arent really better... ive had all sorts of cherry switches... but they really only make a difference when u play OSU.. a keyboard like logitech k740 is quicker then any keyboard coz of flat keys :P

 

also the best keyboard is the keyboard YOU feel most comfort with ^^
