Hi Guys,
So I use keyboard to type, not to game. Looking to get a keyboard that will last me 5+ yr.
I would prefer to get a wired one as my current Logitech with 2.4Ghz wireless dongle keeps interfering with my mouse, phone, baby monitor lol. All those run on 2.4Ghz i believe.

I am looking for a compact keyboard with 87 keys, RGB is a big plus.
Following is what i've shortlisted:

1) Redragon K552-RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboard 87 $47
2) Corsair K65 LUX $90

Honestly the only reason I am looking at the more expensive Corsair is it works with iCUE and I have 3x LL120 RGB fans with lightening node pro. So getting some affects would be awesome.
The Regdragon has 2k+ 4.4 rating reviews on Amazon.


If u guys have any experience with these pls advice.

Thanks :)
 
The normal K65 is my main kayboard right now, can't go wrong with it.
 
Can't speak for the K65, but I just sold my K95 RGB (red switch) and went back to my trusty Ducky DK9008 G2. There was something about the K95 that I couldn't get used to - kept on missing keystrokes.
 
I use the K65 but have nothing to compare to. I came from the cheapo keyboards and wanted to get into mechanical. I've enjoyed the K65 very much and the kids got a kick out of the programmable LEDs (iron man, batman, pacman...etc).

FWIW, my daughter (12) would keep using my computer because she liked the keyboard over the generic I had on theirs. For Xmas, she got her own but as a K63 Wireless from BB. It can also be wired, but does NOT have the same programmable LEDs. K63 review by [H] HERE.
