Reddit mentions of HyperX Alloy FPS - Mechanical Gaming Keyboard & Accessories - Compact Form Factor - Linear & Quiet - Cherry MX Red - Red LED Backlit (HX-KB1RD1-NA/A1)

Generally, the best keyboards are ones with Cherry MX Mechanical switches.

There are 3 types of switches that people mainly go for.

Red switches are linear switches, that means they don't have a bump. They are don't have a click, but make a large clacking sound. They will not have any feeling at the actuation point (The point where the keyboard recongizes your input). These are generally recongized as better for gaming rather than typing.

Blue keys will have an audible click at the point where the keyboard recongnizes your input. There will also be a slight bump at that point as well. These are generally recongized for being better at typing than gaming.

Brown keys are the middle between red and blue keys. Brown keys will keep the slight bump at the point where the keyboard recongizes your input, but does away with the click sounds of blue keys

Generally, the best keyboards will have genuine cherry mx switches of any type. That should be your starting point. Then you can add things like volume controls, backlighting, etc etc etc. Generally, the keyboard that stuffs the most of these features while keeping cherry mx switches will be your best deal.

All of these will be good gaming keyboards while keeping under your budget:

Not terrible if you don't care about RBG. Few different switch options as well.

Even if you don't want all that gaming glitz on the expensive mechanical keyboards, I'd probably still spend $20 more for something backlit like this.

The FPS and FPS Pro uses Cherry MX Switches, while FPS RGB uses Kailh Switches which is suppose to be lighter than Cherry MX when you're pressing the keys.

Here's more info about Kailh switches if you're interested: https://www.keyboardco.com/blog/index.php/2017/11/an-introduction-to-kailh-switches-including-speed-box/

I just bought the HyperX Alloy Cherry Red with a removable cable about 2 weeks ago for $99 from Mike's (that is an Amazon link for $109). It's a great KB, very underrated and (was) <100 (still a good deal @109 in the link).

The primary keyboard I use on my gaming machine is a HyperX Alloy FPS with the additional textured keycaps. I also have a set of o-rings installed to dampen the noise. I like it quite a lot.

The keyboard I use on my streaming machine is a Razer Black Widow Stealth Ultimate 2014.

You can ignore the inadvertent plug, but the best place to get a full gear list is honestly in the channel description of my twitch page. There are two lists there (one for my gaming PC, one for my stream PC) with Amazon links to all the parts/equipment.

What's the difference between the standard black edition and the ultra edition? I almost exclusively play games like Fortnite, PUBG and the latest BF/COD games. Would the ultra edition of the card linked to ensure that I can run these types of games, and maybe versions of them that come out within the next 2-3 years, on a very high setting? Also, would I be able to run 4 4k monitors, presuming that I have the inputs to do so? Thanks!
