Looking for a decent Gaming/Mechanical Keyboard

[RoryExtraLife]

Hey guys, it's my birthday in about a month and a half, and I'd like to get myself a Mechanical Keyboard and a decent gaming mouse. Probably just going to get the one, and I've picked out which mouse I want, so I just wanted to look into getting a Keyboard. Probably not for my birthday but eventually.

I don't know much about Mechanical Keyboards, so I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out what type of keyboard is best? I was looking originally at WASDs, as they seem to be quite good (I'm not the best gamer in the world, so it's not like I need the absolute best) and also because colours. However, I'm based in the UK, and since WASD are US based, that becomes a shipping and tax nightmare (i.e. double in price just in tax...) so if I can get them in the UK, all the better!

Price isn't the biggest deal in the world, but if it turns out to be stupidly high compared to a really good one for much cheaper, I'm going to go with the cheaper one. :P

I use a Razer: Blackwidow Ultimate. I really like it. How-ever razer is was never known for being cheap. It costed me around 120$ USD.

[RoryExtraLife]

That was one of the ones I was looking at, actually! Although I am tempted by the SteelSeries Apex... Anyone got recommendations?

I just bought a Corsair K70 with Cherry Reds from my leftover money for college and I would say its a better keyboard than anything I've owned, and I've owned SS, Logitech, Razer, and a few other brands. I'd say get this if you have the money

The Tt eSPORTS Poseidon Z Blue Switch Illuminated Keyboard (KB-PIZ-KLBLUS-01) is a pretty cheap and nice mechanical keyboard. I enjoy it and for the price it seems worth it to me. Much cheaper than say, a Blackwidow Ultimate.

I recommend Ducky keyboards.

I have Ducky Shine 3 cherry mx red switches and AULA Ghost Shark gaming mouse.

Honestly I get them for the swag and pretty colors, but the performance is realllly good as well.

I have a DS3 Cherry MX green switches.
Click click click mother fuckers. IIRC green is the second loudest switches out there.
