Since I dont really want to blow 300 on a keyboard was wondering about keyboards that are closer to the around $100 range that are still good quality. Link to comment

Nate. Posted November 30, 2020 Content Count: 577 Joined: 11/15/20 Status: Offline Share Posted November 30, 2020 Are you looking for special switches? Full layout, 60%, etc. I use the k55 because I personally enjoy membrane switches but the HyperX Alloy FPS is pretty good. Had it for about 5 years before the spacebar stopped working.

It's not a bad choice for the options you're getting as well as the quality shit it has. Link to comment
Gentoo Posted December 1, 2020 Content Count: 1583 Joined: 06/19/17 Status: Offline Share Posted December 1, 2020 The reason you don't see a lot of recommendations sub-$100 is because the keyboards in this category aren't all that different from one another and tend to be self evident in their features. Almost all keyboards in this category are going to have a somewhat cheap feeling plastic and steel construction with bone stock cherry, gateron or razer switches. If you're lucky, as steven mentioned, you can find one with nice keycaps. This doesn't mean you can't be happy with something in this price range or improve upon a cheaper board, but you're working with whatever's on the box. What layout are you looking for? RGB? Linear/Tactile? Do you like a specific brand? You get exactly what you pay for in this category so you don't have to be too picky as long as it checks all your boxes. 2 Link to comment

Gentoo Posted December 1, 2020 Content Count: 1583 Joined: 06/19/17 Status: Offline Share Posted December 1, 2020 Sike, totally missed this. Drop ENTR coming through with high quality double shot PBT shine through keycaps attached to enthusiast level Halo True(tactile) or Gateron Yellow(linear) switches on a sturdy case, complete with per switch lighting (not RGB). All for just $90. I've not owned or held one of these, but if I only had $100 to spend on a pre-built, I'd cop one of these. https://drop.com/buy/drop-entr-mechanical-keyboard#overview 2 Link to comment
