I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

I have a solid Original Cherry MX-Board 2.0 red switch for $38 USD for working and gaming, there's no game needs more than 4 keys to press at the same time, so 100% anti-ghosting is no need. It is a solid unassuming real mechanical board that is responsive, and feels really nice to type. Size and shape is nowadays standard, so not huge and bulky build, a normal one, with slightly low-profile keys. I really love it!

 

RGB? We don't need it!

Well I don't like to show off or bragging, and actually we don't need to look at the keyboard RGB animation while staring at the monitor in the heat of the game alone in our house, whose the one to be showed off to anyway?

 

And who will twisting his board on the table and mashing with super saiyan 3 strength to bend the board with fingers so they need super stiff military grade metal on their boards, when they only need to press some keys lightly to be productive and having a good gaming session with it?

 

All the expensive mechanical keyboards only takes your money for your psychological side, not for the main functionality per $ you spent on it. Only multimedia keys are the real additional feature that make sense for me personally. The real functionality of the mechanical board only cost $38 for us to be more productive and having a good gaming sessions. little bit more for multimedia keys, the rest is for our nonsense silly prestige.

 

I use it for years now, still have no issue on it..
