PC Peripherals How are these budget mechanical keyboards?

For typing, the TVS Gold keyboard is great. Uses Cherry Blue switches. Not backlit though

You may not know how long this keyboard is used and how it was used or abused.

Blacks are silent red switches.

Blacks are not silent reds. Blacks are reds with higher actuation force of 60 cN instead of 45 on the reds.

throw anything else in the dust bin first chance you get.

Coming to keyboard choices in India,

zebronics keyboard is terrible, went to a internet cafe with those and most of them were failing. Redragon is slightly better but again falls way behind options like magicforce.

It ain't that bad really. My primary rig has a thermaltake board(rebadged filco) that has mx blacks. The zebronics isn't in the same league obviously but it is perfectly serviceable and much better than any membrane keyboard you can find.

Maybe it is not abuse friendly but then no cheap hardware part is. For 2.1k, it wasn't a bad deal.

On the PS/2 version you can press a max of 8 keys. On the USB version the maximum is 5 keys.

You won't be impacted by any conflict but as for duty, you might have to pay some.

I am using it for the past 1 year and it's awesome to hear that clicky sound of the KailH Mech Keys. Go with this.

Does it has option to make all the LED to white single color light?

 

[bssunilreddy]

Does it has the option to make all the LED to white single color light?

No, it has 6 RGB LED lights which are on each row starting from the top.
Each row has 1 LED color only.

Honestly I have no idea man. In my experience buying stuff from China, duty often depends on whether the custom agent had a fight with his wife in the morning or not.
