Keyboard recommendations🙏🏻

that missed keypress issue is a nightmare for gaming. between those two, the rk r65 is probably the safer bet for reliability since hall effect boards can be hit or miss at that price. but if you want something that just works and feels solid, i'd check out the Redragon K552 Kumara. it's a tank, sup

Keyboard recommendations🙏🏻

If you’re thinking about the RK R65 with brown switches, it’s a good pick for reliability and feels nice to type on.

are royal kludge keyboards bad?

Compared to Corsair, probably not, but they have a pretty awful driver for their legacy boards and on some boards it's totally pants. So I wouldn't get the s98, since it's a legacy board.
