Hey everyone, so I'm currently looking for a new keyboard, I have the cm storm quick fire rapid with browns. It's great, but I'm looking more for like Reds and Blacks, preferably no Number Pad since it interferes with my mouse, as well as media functions (if possible). Would be great for some suggestions.

get a kbt race, any one of theirs is awesome, they are reds i believe, and they all dont have numpads, my fav is the kbt race limited edition, which i actually just bought off of mix^ platinum because they dont make them anymore and are incredibly hard to find.

What's the price around those since they don't make them?

the one that i bought is about, well ... idk. the one i bought, when it was new last year was $180, but its limited edition so they stopped making them, i saw a pink version of the same l.e. one go for $92 plus shipping, i myself bought it from plat for $75, with shipping $90 since i wanted the 1-2 day shipping.

you can buy the race 2, and the 75% pure versions for like $120 maybe, not totally sure.

but i highly reccomend these keyboards, not just for performance but for aesthetics too.

so I'm gonna get a mechanical keyboard since my A and D keys are basically broken (the membrane caps are torn). What are the differences between switches? I keep hearing about them but I know next to nothing about the subject.

sky_so I'm gonna get a mechanical keyboard since my A and D keys are basically broken (the membrane caps are torn). What are the differences between switches? I keep hearing about them but I know next to nothing about the subject.

I think it is mainly the force needed to push the keys down and the sound of the keys, don't know much else.

ok, there are 4 main different switches, made by a company called cherry, they are the reds, blues, browns, and blacks, they group together like this, the blues and browns, when you click a key, they dont have that feed back if you get what im saying, like they dont tense up to let you know that the key actually clicked, they are suppose to be prefered for typing, reds and browns have that feedback, but i believe browns take more force to press down then reds, or it might be vice versa.

Nah.

Blues: have a lot of "click", in that if you put a bit of force they clack pretty loud and bottom out. Only take a little force to actuate
Reds: instead of "clicking", they take an even amount of pressure to push the entire way through.
Browns: are halfway between reds and blues, they take some force but still have the "click"

fsXDducky shine 3 here with red switches

best keyboard i've ever had

shine 3 tkl with browns. solid build quality, great keyboard

also, i've used both browns and blues. browns do not have a click like the blues. it's more of a bump, and it's not noticeable while gaming, so while you're gaming, they're basically reds.
