I need some help finding a quiet typing/gaming mechanical keyboard thats on a cheaper side. Full or tkl layout. RGB is not important, its a plus if it has white backlight.
Design is whatever, its is going to be a gift of sorts.
Anything below logitech crabon g513 price I felt drowning in the ocean of chinesium knockoffs and "mechanical" membrane keyboards.
I was looking among cherry mx browns as they promise quiet sound and only 45g of force but I honeslty don't know. Or romer-g.
I never learned to type without looking (but Id love to) let alone used a proper mechanical keyboard for longer than 10 minutes.

Are you outside USA? It's still $44 from amazon.com brand new. I can't get one cheap up here in canada anymore

Neat, I forgot about amazon. Even with fastest delivery overseas its cheaper than buying one here :D

It's been two days since my velocifire vm01 arrived and I'm in love. Thanks a bunch. Better than all those triple priced razers I tried.
Also I have already ordered some colorful pbt caps and such. Does anyone know how these really old styled caps called? Square and high ones but with rounded edges on top? Seem like newer typewriter kind of keys or early 80's computer keys that come from a built-in keyboard.

After spilling some tea on the velocifire vm01, took it apart and de-watered it with wd40. Switches became so smooth and the touch and feel of the keyboard is so different. Long keys like spacebar and shifts still clack metallically though, is there a proper way to grease switches and supporting mechanisms?

velocifire vm01

Also, on that - I tried silentmodding my vm01 and accidentally unsocketed the stab on my enter key.
Taped it down and honestly enjoying enter being silent and not clinky. The stiffness of the key itself didn't change. Is it worth doing for the rest of my keyboard or it's going to be a big regret in the future?
Spacebar metallic noise is killing me tbh even after bandaid mod.
