Clicky backlit mechanical keyboard

[clmeta1]

Hello everyone,

 

as you might read in the title I am searching for an clicky backlit mechanical keyboard. I hope that some of you can give me some advice and some do's and dont's. 

I am a developer and I am typing the most of the time I'm at my computer. I did my research and I found out that the Cherry MX Blue switches are the most "clicky" and tactile in the MX-lineup. Furthermore, I found out that those switches (or similar clicky switches) are what I want. I don't really care about volume. 

Another desired key feature is backlight. The most of the time I am working at night and I don't want to turn on my big desk light. The light emitted by my displays are - as experiments in the past have shown - not enough to illuminate the keyboard well enough so I can see special keys I don't use often. RGB is not necessary, but a really nice-to-have feature.

Currently I am using a Logitech G19, which is fairly old now and pretty rundown. What I like at this keyboard is the volume knob. One desired, but not needed feature is a volume knob. I love to have designated media keys. 

Furthermore I don't want to spend that much money. I can't give a number, but a Das Keyboard - I think - is a bit too pricy for the features.

I searched around the internet and found some keyboards. None of them matched my requirements well enough. Maybe I haven't researched enough.

Well, I hope that some of you can give me an advice and maybe share some personal experiences. 

 

Thanks in advance and have a nice day. Best regards

Logitech G610 Orion Blue would be perfect... if you can get your hands on it (I can't find it anywhere in the UK).

 

This is the closest thing after it:

I am assuming that you are from the US.

Hi,

actually I am from Germany. I searched around the internet and couldn't find a single web shop which sells the G610 Orion Blue.

The same goes with the Cooler Master keyboard.

 

Have you or anyone else got any other ideas?

 

Greetings

You could go for a backlit razer keyboard with Razer Green switches, they are very tactile and click your just like Cherry MX Blues
