Help me find a Budget Keyboard

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
Ok, I'm just about ready to purchase the last two things on my list, my Gpu, and a keyboard. Unfortunately, after I buy the gpu I'll have roughly $30 left to spend on a keyboard which isn't much. I need a keyboard primarily for gaming plus other standard use. I won't be able to spend over $30 so I need some suggestions.

These are what I've found so far.

I know I'm not getting any serious gaming keyboard for my budget, but I want to try and get the best I can.

The last two you would have to extend your budget by about $10-$15, but all three are decent keyboards and much better than any $15 keyboard on newegg. The G15 is the first one, but it's still a good keyboard.

Thanks. I'll probably end up stretching my budget a little bit then. I'm thinking of getting the Lycosa now.

It is a very nice keyboard, I would snatch it up. Don't forget to try and haggle tongue.gif

MicroConnectors D07-135 is $15 + S&H. Either white StrongMan ALPS clones or, if you are lucky, tactile nonclicky black ALPS. 2KRO, cheap build, and the USB ports can't power most things, but I don't know of any other mechanicals that are anywhere near as cheap.
