Making the Transfer to Mechanical

So after years of gaming on membrane keyboards, I decided it was the time to switch.

Requirements:

 

KEY TYPE: Preferably brown, but blue is fine.

TYPE: Full sized (with the F-row and Num Pad)

LIGHTING: Either non or green.

PRICE RANGE: Anything under 150~

FEATURES: Maybe some Macro keys, not necessary.

 

Thanks guys :D

There are so many options out there, and it's mainly based on looks.

The best IMO in this bracket is the Logitech G710+, keeping in mind that it has white backlight LEDs.
