Royal Kludge - RK87

Keeb: Aula F75 (6k) - Amazing sound + quality, huge market in India OR RK87 (around 3k) - Amazing tenkeyless, good quality and sound + good vol knob on a budget Mouse: VXE R1 (3k) - Hands down best mouse, lightweight 45g-ish and good quality and amazing battery life. Current mouse right now. Reply to me if you have a better recommendation (unless other use case/productivity)

The new QMK versions of the RK61, RK R65, RK R75, and RK R87 are quite nice. All their other boards are distilled ass because of their lousy restrictive software. I had one of the old R87s and gave it away because it was so awful.

You can’t go wrong with Aula f75 or rk87, they’re really nice for gaming. Although if you absolutely want it purely for gaming or want the best possible gaming performance and experience then you should be looking at Hall Effect keyboards that come with magnetic switches that allow you to adjust the actuation points of the switch (ie how farther down you press to activate). All HE keyboards available in India are fantastic 🙂

Hi! Been playing this game called Deadlock and I figured I'm having a hard time clicking multiple buttons on my keyboard because the button's height is high and I can feel my fingers getting stuck on spaces between the keyboard or if not misclicking another button (currently using a Royal Kludge 87 keyboard wired). Just recently learned about the existence of low profile keyboards and I just want to know which specific brand and unit would satisfy this checklist: - Low Profile - To be used for both work and gaming (primarily for gaming) - could be wired or wireless (preferrably wireless and has good battery life) - TKL or 100% (I like to have the same buttons my RK87 currently has but I'm open to try having the numpad as well) - I'm not really picky on the switches so I guess anything can do as long as it sounds good - I won't really configure it that much as well like the macros and stuff. - Preferrably Black - some RGB can be good but not really a dealbreaker So just a good old low profile, 100% wireless keyboard that is good for gaming that I can just connect and play that also sounds good and feels good when tapping the buttons. I was kinda already choosing between Nuphy Air75 v3 or Air75 HE. Was kinda leaning to the HE one because it feels gamer-ish however it is wired and some of its keys are transparent. Just saw some mixed reviews overall for quality and software. Another one I saw is ASUS ROG Falchion Low Profile. But its only 65% I was also thinking of getting a Razer Deathstalker V2 Pro (since I have a Basilisk V3 Pro mouse) yet I've been seeing multipld connectivity issues on it as well. And through a good friends suggestion, Keychron seems to be a good brand that can satisfy my checklkst yet upon checking its catalogue I'm overwhelmed on the different units available.

I'm using Royal Kludge's R87 with QMK/VIA keyboard and Razer Basilisk v3. Most of the keyboards' applications only work on Windows. QMK/VIA keyboards work on most platforms, including Mac and Linux.

I had similar thoughts when I built my PC, ended up with a royal kludge and haven't looked back, first one died on me, drink spilled on it not by me. Immediately ordered a second one it is worth the $80 and I don't see any reason to spend more for a full mechanical keyboard

I had a rk years ago and it was fine, until a key failed. I have a keychron now and love it. But I'm also not a small keyboard person. For the price it will probably work fine for a few years, but also probably good for someone who wanted to try 60% and see how they like it.

Razer keyboards hot trash. RK royal kludge is a much better option.

Looking for very specific keyboard. My original razer black widow broke on me. Looking for a 75%. I tried these 3 keyboards and they are all missing one thing. Epomaker aula F-75 basically perfect just sounds kinda like shit. Epomaker HE80 sounds great but the lighting is very dim. RK royal kludge- the function keys are just too close to the letters and it triggers me. Looking for 75%, very bright RGB, sounds good, and specifically has the delete key in the upper right hand portion of the screen. A lot of keyboards have the pause break in the upper right, and my game I play doesn’t allow me to change that keybind. so I need the upper right hand key to be delete preferably, or I guess if I had to anything other than pause/break.

no way aula is better than royal kudge I own both and build battery keys each and everything is way superior in royal kudge Aula is way overhyped imo
