I'd like to try a mechanical keyboard, but I couldn't live without F keys and a numpad.

Plus, my wife would probably divorce me.

Not teams friendly when multitasking. I use one and like the tactile feedback. But it’s noisy!

Well that’s £45 I wasn’t expecting to spend tonight. Been wanting to try a mechanical keyboard for a while - Thanks for the PSA!

Dammit, 10kl otherwise I'd jump on that. In fact it's sub 10kl so not even a num pad can save it.

Ah well, more for everyone else.

Mx mechanical is what you want. Mechanical, quiet, doesn't look offensive

Have you been talking to my ex?

Ooh, interesting. Something like this? I'm not fussed about lights...

Sorry mate, I think it has.

Mines arrived today, it's very nice, you can tell it's all alloy, has some real heft and looks/feels a damned site more expensive than even it's full price alludes too. Sounds similar to my Redragon mechanical with their own brand brown switches. Which is a good thing.

My Redragon is hot swappable but this thing absolutely blows it away on build quality, looks etc... and it's UK layout which my Redragon doesn't even come in.

Not had experience of that keyboard but seems like a solid choice if you want a quiet keyboard for gaming AND office use. Or just office use of course!

Ta!

Mainly for typing to be honest (I write for work and for fun) with a little bit of gaming on the side...
