Title: Looking for keyboard suggestions
Post by: cbeland on Fri, 08 January 2021, 07:17:04

Looking for a keyboard with the following attributes:

- RGB
- TKL
- Blue cherry, white kalh box or hot swappable
- Internal memory for macro and RGB effect (will be plugged on a USB switch and used on a Mac, Linux and windows hosts and I don’t want to have to set everything when changing host)
- Floating key design with minimal bezel
- Standard key cap layout (easy to find replacement set)
- Pbt double shot key caps
- Can be bought from Canada

I bought the Drop CTRL, which checked all those boxes, but returned it because the keyboard leds were had humming noise that bothered me a lot for a 350$+ cad keyboard. I really liked it.

Do you have any suggestions??

varmilo VA87M% (https://en.varmilo.com/keyboardproscenium/product_indexsubject?layout=80&model=Theme%20keyboard) fits your criteria except I'm not sure about the internal memory.

Check out Durgod's TKL as well, I know they have a low profile one.

I would 2nd the Durgod, surprisingly good boards for the price.  I can say I still love my CM Pro S (Rapid) - found  mine for $65 from CM's refurb outlet and it's been solid.
