Wooting 80HE has that analog input, which is neat if you want more precise control in games. But if you want something that just works and feels more traditional, the HyperX Alloy Origins is good and built well. Check out reviews for both and see which one suits your style keyboardyeti might have some useful stuff too, especially about comfort and typing feel.

This will be my second mechanical keyboard purchase after my HyperX Alloy Origins died. I’m torn between the Leopold FC750RBT and the Filco Majestouch 3 Ninja TKL(PS/2 to USB-A), but the USB type is my biggest concern. My first board was USB-C, and the port got damaged within a year or two of use. I’m really leaning toward the 750RBT, but after getting burned with my first keyboard, I want to know how durable Leopolds are long-term. I know its a silly question because USB-C is the standard now but I really dont want to replace my keyboard due to port damage

i am using a HyperX Alloy Origins for gaming. It has been great. I prefer the switches of Hyperx over Razer, Corsair, Logitech. Post sales service of Logitech has been the best. Same day repair and replacement here in Delhi, India. Overall though, I find linear switches gaming keyboard bad for typing. I make a lot of mistakes. As I don't game as much anymore 😭, I have been using Royal Kludge RK75 with tactile switches and it has been the best keyboard for me. The typing experience is amazing. In gaming also it fairs quite well, but for competitive games the wired Hyperx still feels faster (very slightly)

For that price, the HyperX Alloy Origins is a solid option. The full aluminum body feels more premium than the usual plastic stuff you get from big brands in that budget range. It ticks all your boxes: full-size, mechanical, and customizable RGB. FWIW, my mate and I recently did an analysis on Reddit data for gaming keyboards. Basically ranked them by aggregated sentiment. Maybe you'll find it helpful (Google Redditrecs) You can filter by price and layout like full-size and get a breakdown of what ppl have said about the most often recommended ones (disclaimer some links are affiliate they help fund the analyses)

Because you forgot that many of the "traditional" brands' materials and products are often also produced in China. So when Chinese brands make their own keyboards, they can use the same quality of materials, while also keeping the price lower, because they don't need exporting fees from different manufacturers, delivery fees for materials, etc, since they are based in China. This also allows many Chinese manufacturers to experiment and add more features for the same price as a traditional board. For example, like you mentioned, the AULA f75 compared to the HyperX Aloy Origins, where I'm pretty sure the AULA has better lubed switches as well as dampening in the case, while HyperX has little to none. But yeah, you made a great choice with the AULA, enjoy!

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.
