I personally have the Alloy Elite 2. Looks like it was discontinued? I can’t find it on their website. It has a pretty cozy feel and switch noise. Look up a YouTube video to see how customizable it is on the Ngenuity application. Idk if they’re all the same but it’s pretty verse in what you can do. I geeked out and got the big mousepad with outlined custom lights too, lol.

Looking to replace my HyperX Alloy Elite from 2018 after an unfortunate interaction between my cat and a cup of tea took it out of action. I'm finding the increased pricing and availability a little overwhelming and looking to see what opinions others have. Currently thinking the Keychron K10 v2 though that's towards the high end of what I'd like to spend. My nearly non-negotiable is a 100% size keyboard. Prefered are: \- Wired and even better if it had USB pass-through (HyperX spoilt me and now I want it again but struggling to find this). \- Hot swappable switches (change switch type if I want to, or replace failed switches easily). \- Backlighting of some description (my temp board doesnt have that and boy do I miss it). \- A switch similar to brown, tactile but not super noisy. I've also seen a Logitech G512 Carbon Lightsync for about 30% less than the K10 which seems reasonable minus the hot swapable switches. Thanks for any input

Corsair K60 rgb pro K70 core tkl wireless Full sized k70 core Razer Ornata V3 Hyper X alloy ( what I currently have but it's dying. RGBs have been dying for about a year but in recent weeks some of the keys have been failing to register clicks properly or have delayed reactions ) Which would be considered best of the lot for casual gaming? I need a new one ASAP but they're the only ones available locally for me ( working right up until Christmas so can only get to shops close to where I work )

G502 X wins for big hands-I’ve ruined enough keyboards to vouch for HyperX Alloy. Solid picks, but swapping in Keychron K6 could give extra edge. Gaming marathon approved.
