There are far better alternatives than Glorious. This is coming from someone who's first build was a GMMK Pro, the first version of this keyboard. I had to purchase a seperate flex kit from them and finish it off with new stabs in order to make it sound and feel relatively decent. Despite buying the board AFTER the overlubing issues were fixed, I still got one with insanely sticky stabs. I just replaced them with durock V3 stabs but I had to file down the polycarbonate plate to get them to fit. The overall build was over 300 dollars, including the price of the top frame, flex kit, new stabs, and new switches and caps. Compare this to a several other keyboards I bought for way less and sounded and felt much better out the gate. I have a GK Gamakay SN75, Akko 5075B, and Batknight BK75, and all of them sound and felt better for the price they were at. And the best part is they came complete at less than 100-110 usd. The gmmk barebones I bought was 134 usd and didn't have switches or caps. Don't buy from these gaming companies unless value for money is truly just not a concern.

I bought an AKKO 5075B and it’s been lovely. The stock switches I have come to find are not great quality, so I picked up some new switch and now it feels just right. Plus it’s quite easy to sound mod if you’re up for that. Hot-swappable board and does WiFi, USB and Bluetooth. The software is usable if you need to remap keys. It also comes with a few additional key caps (I swapped the home button for the screen shot button key cap and remapped it).

Just find any keyboard with rapid trigger switches. You can easily feel better responsivness in games with a lot of movement like ffxiv. I have and recommend Drunkdeer a75 but now there should be a lot of cheap options now. Probably any cheap chinese keyboard with rapid trigger from aliexpress would be good. I got akko 5075b plus on aliexpress and it's very good although it's not rapid trigger keyboard.

I don't recommend Logitech mouse, I had 2 and both got double-click issue exactly after a year. I'm currently using Pulsar x2a and Akko 5075b for kb.

You can get a Leobog Hi75C kit for around 35 USD, depending on your location and seller. That leaves room in your budget for switches and keycaps. If you're looking for prebuilts, check out the Elecfox INKY75 (no knob) or the Furycube F75S (with knob). For a cheaper option with a plastic case, the Akko 5075B Plus is worth considering. Most of these come with keycaps included, and their RGB is often better than what you’d find on most aluminum boards, if that’s something you care about. Then you also have Aula F75 as others have already said.

This. For big brands you pay for the name on the product, the quality is often not there anymore. I had keyboards from Cooler Master, Logitech, Corsair and none appeal to me anymore when I see them on a display. Loving my 75% Akko.

For your budget you should check out the neo75 or neo98 depending on your preferred layout. Akko and keychron are both great in their own ways, but keychron is not what it used to be, and is generally overpriced for the quality. Akko is generally a bit better priced with decent quality, but there are still much better boards out there. The neo boards run about $150 barebones so you'd have 100 left over to choose switches, keycaps, and stabilizers(optional, the neo series come with them, but I'll explain later) The new neo75 and 98 boards blow akko and keychron out of the water. I have a neo 98 that i use at work and I'm astounded at the level of quality you can get now for $150. I got the taupe grey which looks awesome.  I will say that if you do get a neo board, spend an extra$10-15 dollars and get some good stabilizers for it. The stabilizers that come with the board aren't great, though they are on par with what you would get with a keychron or akko board. I've been loving the typeplus x yikb stabilizers. They're amazing. There's nothing worse than having a beautiful keyboard that sounds amazing, except for the rattling enter or space bar.

If you can drop the function row, Machina Overture65 V2 (prebuilt) while it's still in GB. Keychron and Akko don't have great QC because they use cheap factories and mass produce, while companies that make primarily custom boards have a better QC checking system and use better materials + design. Another option would be the QK Evo80 for prebuilt or Hex80 for hall effect.

Most wireless boards are fire hazards unless they employ a small scale battery (which is primarily used by the ZMK system). I've seen a lot of OEM keychron and akko boards have case warping, plate inconsistencies, and just bad tolerances on even their $200 aluminum boards. They're also just designed pretty terribly from an acoustic standpoint because they rely on foam to mask hollowness, instead of allowing for one to choose the config. Also, some akko boards are OEMs also used by ajazz, attack shark, and aula, all of which have cases of shady firmware that either bricks the board or contains malware. Not an issue with keychron but keychron firmware is just buggy in its own way (crashes, random connectivity drops). IMO the best OEM board is the Shortcut Bridge75 because it actually uses a decent factory, but tldr I'd pay the premium for a Machina or QK prebuilt (and it's within your budget). https://youtu.be/7hHq6jCyVX0?si=lOGWcbT43ytrvvwJ https://youtu.be/cG6N0I5WuSo?si=52J13CXrT2e424q6
