Keychron K7E5 mint switches

The full size Gateron Jupiter Banana are the best switches Keychron sells. OMG they're so much better than the weaksauce browns. So here are the best budget 65% I know about. The MU68 is less budget than the others but the wooden case is so lovely: Womier VK66 Pro * ($42) Womier Q61 v2 * ($42) Royal K

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

Need help with deciding a keyboard

You have 250$, you don't have to play with a 100$ Rainy75. Better settle to an Evo75 or a custom Zoom75 Tiga build >Is the Rainy 75 actually a noticeable upgrade from an RK R65? Yes.

Which keyboard is better?

Disclaimer: I tend to avoid keyboards with screens because they're mostly just another thing to break. The K719 is one of the least bad legacy Redragon boards. The screen is sorta functional and you can set the screen's clock using the knob which makes it not purely useless, but I prefer tapping on

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.

What keyboard should I buy and should I get new keycaps for it?

HK gaming GK61 HK Gaming is currently in violation of the court order that Skyloong (the actual manufacturer of the real GK61) has won against them. The "HK Gaming GK61" is a shoddy forgery. Do not get it. On top of which that one is optical. That's double red flags. Here are some actually good 60%

Build for silent keyboard

Silent switches trump pretty much every other aspect of the build. I wouldn't worry too much about the acoustic qualities of the boards if you're going to put a real silent switch like that in them. Is that the QMK/VIA version of the RK R65? If so, go with that. If not, those boards both have horrib

which is better and what are the things we should look while getting a 60% keyboard (like in gpu we look for vram)

K617 Fizz 5 Pin variantDO NOT get K530, if you can spend 4.5k get RK R65. One of the best option under 5k.AG Sentry is available for 4k too. Both of these are better than redragon keyboards
