I know they won't recommend the Razer because they don't use Cherry switches but Kailh stitches which are lower quality.
Edit: Suggestion: CM Storm QuickFire TK is $84
Here it is on Amazon, $100 free shipping.
Oh I agree that they don't need a smaller keyboard. I have just found that it is more comfortable to use one.
I am typical person who hates change and defended using a full size KB for a long time, and after moving to a TKL I wish I had done it years earlier.
I have a USB numpad (can't live without it) and everything is just fine.
I've been wanting a Quickfire TK since I first saw them. Just one key wider than a TKL but has a full numpad.
If you've never tried a mechanical keyboard before, its not simply the "click", but the feel of the entire typing experience. You will have to try it out to know what I mean. There are many different types of key switches with different amounts of force required to register their presses, different ones that have a tactile bump that tell you when you've activated the key, ones with no bump at all, different ones that click when pressed down, combinations of these, and a lot more. Its good to be educated about the different types of key switches before finally investing into a mechanical keyboard, based off of your situation and preferences. Head to /r/MechanicalKeyboards if you want to see people with way too many keyboards and good recomendations. Personally, I'd recommend the Cooler Master Storm Quickfire series here and here, or the popular Poker II from Massdrop. A good mechanical keyboard is definitely a worthy investment, as it will last you for a very long time and you can swap out the keycaps if they get damaged or if you want a different look. Also note that Razer's mech keyboards are lower quality than most other keyboards due to their special key switches manufactured in China, so don't trust Razer's keyboards no matter how flashy they look. You're better off with literally any other mechanical keyboard.
For your mouse, its personal preference but if you're going to play something "serious" like CS:GO I'd recommend any mouse from Logitech's gaming lineup since their sensors from the lowest to the highest pricepoint are trusted by pro players.
Happy gaming!
The Cooler Master TK is $89, which is less than $100.
For those interested in the mouse, you can adjust the mouse on Linux utilizing this handy script - https://github.com/pjanouch/sensei-raw-ctl
That is why I went with the compromise that is know as the CM Quickfire TK. It has the form factor of a tenkeyless board, but still has the numpad. I think it is awesome!
But wait, there's more:
I happen to have a CM Quickfire TK w/ MX Browns for sale.
It's in like new condition sitting on my shelf.
$70 shipped.
Let me know..
This is the build I would get, but double the RAM. It will be better for audio editing and 16GB will be the norm soon enough.

Yep, I have one at work and it is hands down the best keyboard I have ever used. However, at home I mainly have my light off when at the computer and so backlight is a must. Went with this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A378L10/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER and I haven't been disappointed.
If you must have Clear, you have to order from a boutique shop, and you can't get that layout as boutique shops only have TKL or full size, not that "inbetween". Ducky sometimes makes keyboard w/ clears, but not in that layout either.
Closest layoutwise to that is Coolermaster QuickFire TK, but it is not available in clear. Blue, Brown, Red, and rarely, Green
If you must have both, you'll have to custom build something like a RS96 with clear switches.
the sale is still on https://www.amazon.ca/gp/offer-listing/B00A378L10/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new
CMStorm also has the quickfire TK or the Pro, depending on what layout you want.

Also look into steelseries, I believe they have a model with browns.
You can find a [Quickfire TK] (http://www.amazon.com/CM-Storm-QuickFire-TK-Mechanical/dp/B00A378L10/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1374602401&sr=8-3&keywords=quickfire+tk) or the [Quickfire Pro] (http://www.amazon.com/CM-Storm-QuickFire-Pro-Mechanical/dp/B007VDOOBU/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1374602497&sr=1-1&keywords=quickfire+pro) for around 90 bucks.

CM Storm Quickfire TK
I think this is a great option, I think I passed by it before because of the lack of num-pad. It's not entirely a deal breaker but it would be nice.
What about this one? it looks comparable, and I think it is also standard layout so it should be easy to customize.

It's basically the same price, but it includes a numpad. It doesn't have the arrow keys and numbers active at the same time so it's not perfect but its somewhere in between.
how about a 80% keyboard but with TK?
http://www.amazon.com/CM-Storm-QuickFire-TK-Mechanical/dp/B00A378L10
Quickfire TK?
Indeed there are.
Here's one.
Here's another.
You could also buy LED covers in multiple colors that gives you a pseudo-RGB backlighting.
Is THIS the keyboard that you have? I have been looking into it, I am asking for it for christmas. I play mainly this and LOL, as well as writing a stupid amount of papers for school.
You recommend it?

I have a brown switch 3/4ths size CM Storm. It's as loud as my old mechanical keyboard that was probably as old I was.
My daily driver rubber dome keyboard is on its way out, and I figured I'd get into mechanical keyboards for the "can use it for home defense" factor. Also because it'll last a while.
I already know I want brown switches as my computer is in my bedroom and my wife will divorce me if I get clicky keys.
I really don't want to abandon the convenience of macro keys, but it seems that the only keyboard under $200 with macro keys is the logitech g 710. I'll probably go for it if I don't find anything better. Also considering this keyboard, due to budget constraints. I'd also like to have volume controls on the keyboard. Any recommendations? Preferably under $100, but I'll take up to $150 if they've got good macro key options, like the g710.
Also, I'd like one with the numpad, but I can live without it.
Currently out of stock.. but the Razer Deathadder is the only Razer product I have ever bought. It's simple, comfortable, blue, smooth, and a great product.
I bought a Quickfire CMstorm a few years ago. I actually got a Blue switch first, and then a brown.. The blue is an incredible satisfying click. But can be annoying to those around you if you don't live alone.
If you go down the blue switch route, O-rings are usualy a must have. At least in my opinion.
Avoid wireless, get USB plugs
I want to buy the CM Storm QuickFire TK, it is way cheaper on amazon than any other site but i cannot find a azerty layout. (I live in Belgium). So if i buy this Qwerty one can I change it to a AZERTY? Because it is swappable apparantly.

Take a look at a cm storm TK, pretty cheap, almost TKL size and fits an numpad. Don't know what MX keyboard would use that numpad system but this might be helpful.

As for keycaps check vortex for a backlit PBT sets on mechanicalkeyboards.com as they normally have a few.
you may have over paid, I got mine with browns on amazon for 90 and the one in reds is 90. See if you can return it and save the 23 from buying it on amazon. here the link
CM Storm has a backlit mech with volume controls as FN keys under $100.
Steelseries 6gv2 no backlight, but has volume control with FN keys and is mechanical. Beware, the key caps are known to fit loosely and come off easily.
There are some Razer Black Widow mechs in that price area.
good split would be 100 for keyboard, 60 for mouse, 90 for hard drive.
for your consideration.

If you are a frequent computer user, a mechanical keyboard. They feel really amazing to type on, and last forever. the Quickfire TK and the Quickfire Rapid are great no-frills keyboards.
I did some more digging, and managed to find multiple entires for quickfire tks.

but it's brown damnit!

Hi ;)
I am looking for a mechanical Keyboard (obviously) ;)
I will buy it in Germany and use it for gaming (mainly) and typing of school essays(less).
I thought about buying this(german link)
englisch link
What I am conserened about is the noise. Will you be able to hear it through a closed door? How noisy are they (I never had any mechanical keyboard ;(
I've had a QFP for quite a while now, and overall I wouldn't recommend it over any of the other CMStorm boards. The great rubber coating on the keys started wearing off after just a month of use, and is not pretty much gone.
If you're comfortable going TenKeyLess, absolutely grab a QuickFire Rapid, as it's just a more solidly build board. Alternatively, the QuickFire TK has a different compact layout with a numpad, and full backlighting as well.
Hi so I'm looking for my first mechanical keyboard with brown switches. I'd like to spend under $100. Less than $80 could be pretty good if the quality is there. I don't really need something too customizable yet. I heard the corsairs have bad software on them but they physically look good. Can anyone comment on these keyboards and give their recommendations? I saw the CM Storm Quickfire rapid for cheaper but now it went back up in price so I'm really hesitant to buy it.
Corsair Vengeance K65 $50
Corsair STRAFE $70
Storm QuickFire Rapid Tenkeyless $89
CM Storm QuickFire TK $70
Quickfire tk is an option but be aware of weird key sizes so the space bar is in replaceable except with the max keyboard black translucent set and the bottom modifiers are harder to find but if u like the look its a great keyboard http://www.amazon.com/CM-Storm-QuickFire-TK-Mechanical/dp/B00A378L10
Very good.
http://www.amazon.com/CM-Storm-QuickFire-TK-Mechanical/dp/B00A378L10
I don't know that many cheap ones, but this one is usually recommended.

I'm sure you could find some even cheaper ones if you looked around, but that one is known to be good.

Its really good to hear that feed back. Yes, I am most likely not getting the Choc Mini. I think Ill go with something like QuickFire or similar keyboard.
I have this keyboard : https://www.amazon.com/CM-Storm-QuickFire-TK-Mechanical/dp/B00A378L10?th=1

CM Storm QuickFire TK Brown
I got mine direct from Amazon here: http://www.amazon.com/CM-Storm-QuickFire-TK-Mechanical/dp/B00A378L10
~$92 with tax so you can still get it factory new there.
I think I'm gonna hold on to it since I would be selling at a loss, but feel free to PM me any offer.
Just wanted to see if OP wanted a straight trade seeing he wanted browns too.

QuickFire TK is a middle ground option. You get the approximate size of a TKL but with full number pad functionality. http://www.amazon.com/CM-Storm-QuickFire-TK-Mechanical/dp/B00A378L10/
Filco makes a MX Brown number pad http://www.amazon.com/Filco-Majestouch-TenKeyPad-Tactile-Numberpad/dp/B000MGBPNI/
People say a good inbetween switch for gaming and typing is the browns because of the tactile feel and quietness to help keep the imersion, unlike the blues that have a satisfying click with them that may break the imersion. Also the posiedon z's should be what you're looking for or the ducky shine 3. For just a white backlit keyboard (since the others are sold out) there's the cooler master quickfire tk.

CM Storm QuckFire Rapid-i or TK. http://www.amazon.com/CM-Storm-QuickFire-TK-Mechanical/dp/B00A378L10/
If you don't mind used you can probably find it for a bit cheaper on /r/mechmarket.
So, the TK with browns would work for you? Because thats a thing. That's definitely a thing. Here.
I'm looking for a keyboard to replace my beloved Zippy WK-730 that I'm using at work. It's going on three years old now and starting to feel a little mushy.
I like the size of it; it doesn't take up too much space on my desk. I use a slim wrist rest with it, so I'm not married to the depth of it (although I really like how thin it is, aesthetically, I guess it's actually a hindrance to function).
After doing some cursory research, it would appear I have two choices in the mechanical keyboard space: Cherry MX Clear/Brown or Topre switches.
I'm pretty much looking at the CM Storm TK with Cherry Brown switches or the Topre Type Heaven.
I like my Zippy, other than the mushiness, and I use a wired Apple board at home. Should I even be considering these two mechboards or should I be barking up a different tree?
Has anyone here moved from a nice scissor like the Zippy or Apple slim keyboards to a mechanical and absolutely loved it? Conversely, has anyone made the jump and regretted it?
The Cooler Master Quickfire TK is a great backlit option for less than $100, although it doesn't have macros if you care about that kind of thing.
The keyboard is available in a variety of different mechanical switches, so it might be a bit daunting trying to figure out which one suits you best.
Personally, I find the RED switch perfect for first person shooters, as it's very light (seriously, it requires very little force to press down compared to most membrane switches). It's also not tactile, which means that you can't feel a bump when you press it down. Another thing to note is that, like most other mechanical switches, it actuates before you press it all the way down.
The downside is that you might have some trouble typing with it, as the light weight could cause you to mistype. You also might not be sure if you pressed a key down enough for it to be actuated, as there's no bump or click sound to confirm it. Of course, this is something that I have gotten used to over about a week or so, but it can be very strange at first.
Here is a great overview of the other switches.
I can certainly say that mechanical keyboards have improved my typing, but I'm not so sure about gaming. To me, mechanical keyboards are more about comfort. The solid build quality, precision and consistency of the switches just feels more natural to me, which is enough for me to justify spending $150+ on a keyboard, but that might not be true for other people.
EDIT: Spelling.
What? I also have a Deathstalker. It's shit.
I'm finally leaving the membrane world as my custom WASD V2 mechanical keyboard is coming in the mail :)
EDIT: I just realized this comment seems a little harsh. If you like it, that's fine, but I'm just a little salty that I spent like 80 bucks on this thing last year before I knew about mechanical keyboards, when I could've spent like [10 BUCKS MORE! :'(] (http://www.amazon.com/CM-Storm-QuickFire-TK-Mechanical/dp/B00A378L10/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1410196376&sr=8-7&keywords=cm+storm+quickfire+ultimate) and gotten a pretty good mech.
Would things like this be better?

Hey guys! So I'm looking for a mechanical keyboard that'll be used primarily for gaming on a new blue themed build. I feel like cherry red switches would probably be the best, but every keyboard I find that has cherry reds has a red trim.
I'm looking to:
Spend less than 150
Buy directly from amazon.com, as in " ships and sold by amazon.com"
Have a backlight feature on the keyboard
I don't particularly care about the number pad, or anything besides it having a blue backlight feature and being relatively well built. I was thinking of this keyboard: http://www.amazon.com/CM-Storm-QuickFire-TK-Mechanical/dp/B00A378L10/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1398117074&sr=1-2&keywords=backlit+mechanical+keyboard
I'd love to here some opinions. Thanks guys!
