Well, i'm new here guys, so I'd like to start off by saying hello and I hope i have a good time here! :)
Anyways.. i'm having trouble with finding a new mech keyboard.. I'm limiting myself only to NCIX because I can travel there and not
need to pay for shipping fee's which is a pain in the ass imo. Right now i don't know what switch to get, i'm 60% typing, 40% gaming, but sometimes
on some days i can be like 80% gaming 20% typing, it just varies if i'm in the mood to game or not. But i'm a student so typing is a big role for the switch
I'm looking into blues, browns or reds. I'm kinda afraid of getting the blues because I might get bored of the clicking sound, but then the sound of the browns may be too dull
e.g. "clockclockclockclock" I've also heard that browns are very mushy.. I play SC2, LoL, dota 2, Hon, MMORPGS, anything you name it. I just want a good keyboard for a cheap price too.
If this helps.. I've been the type of person to constantly bottom out hard on certain days, but some days i wouldn't type as hard on the keyboard.
Also.. I'm on a tight budget, and i've been thinking of a das keyboard cause i heard its feel is great, but it's a bit expensive, and the font and the keys on the cooler master keyboards
don't look very satisfying.. I know i'm being picky it's just i'm not the oldest guy out there.. I don't even have a job because i'm busy with extra curriculars e.g. basketball, dance and since i'm asian, i have to get that high average haha..
sorry for rambling on but, yeah i can't really decide on the switch and keyboard i want.. it doesn't really matter if it's TKL but idk if TKL is right for me.
Thanks for your time!

Welcome to Geekhack!
Browns and reds would sound about the same.
You can use O-rings to dampen the sound from bottoming out.
You can also replace the keycaps fairly easily if you don't like the default ones.
+1 for QFR :)

I think, we can honestly from now on, NO MATTER WHAT the poster says in the "what keyboard" thread, respond "Quickfire Rapid"
It's the obvious and only choice.....
I mean, everything else is pointless until the guy gets "INTO" the hobby..

It's looking that way, although the Ducky Zero might also be a contender (once the reviews start trickling in).
