You can get the blackwidow v3 tkl and just replace the keycaps with pbt ones or you can buy like an epomaker, keychron, or red dragon keyboard. I also reccomend the K617 fizz.

I‘ve been using the Blackwidow V3 TKL for a few years now and it‘s great but I‘m really over the clickety sound and am looking for the most quiet option now. Due to synapse etc. I think getting another Razer to integrate into the setup works best. With how the website is setup and since it‘s been a while since I bought a keyboard I have zero overview what is the latest and greatest when it comes to silent switches and wired keyboards. TLDR; Looking for TKL, wired, most silent Razer keyboard out there (if it has extra nobs etc. for volume that‘s fine I don‘t really mind) Could you guys help me out here?

> Razer > Reliable I used Razer a lot, they didn’t upset me, BUT! If you want a real reliability - you need hot swappable switches. Look at Keychron, btw. Aula is not bad but it’s Epomaker brand so most guys here say it sucks. Aula’s software is crap, imo. I recommend Hator and GamePro MK305, these are Ukrainian brands, they are cheaper and tend to be reliable. But Keychron is nobrain winner.

You can go for any Mk keyboards but it could be a Lil pricey like 5k, or you can buy Razer blackwidow v3 tenkeyless which I've been using for over a year right now and formouse go with Logitech g304 and the keyboard you've posted is just a membrane keyboard...

I run Tenkeyless Razer Black Widow for Sc2 sometimes and I'm pleased, but I prefer a full

I don't quiet have piano fingers(I'm a bass player, no pick). I have a Razer black widow that's about 12 or so years old, but I hear their quality isn't so great anymore. Maybe something old enough that the caps are on steel posts? That'll probably require a ps2 to usb adapter though, and may not function in bios.

Nope. My Black Widow is still going after 12 years or so. I just wish that it was louder and clankier with more resistance.

I mean.. mouses are kinda a preference item.. personally I use a mouse with a ton of buttons.. if you want to get him one like that Best Buy has a good Corsair one on sale for $50.. there are other options too.. You should ask him what type of mouse he likes. You didn't say how much you want to spend.. I got my brother a Red Dragon set for Christmas like 5 years ago and he was still using it when I went to Thanksgiving at his house last month.. so I can say those are good if you're looking to keep the set around $50 total. If you want to spend more than that I would just look around and look at sales.. Keyboards are pretty straight forward.. make sure it's mechanical or membrane and has good reviews.. I am using a Razer Black Widow keyboard I bought on sale a few years ago and I definitely recommend it.. very nice keyboard. If you don't want to spend that much tho.. you can get the Ornata for way less and it's a nice keyboard as well.

I like Corsair keyboards but I find razer black widow series to be better all around.
