Hello! I’ve been looking for a gaming keyboard for my desk. Any recommendations, suggestions, or opinions are welcome. Thank you very much! :)
📌Minimal Requirements
Budget: Around $200 USD (give or take)
Full RGB support
White keyboard (for my desk color palette)
At least 65%, but TKL or 100% will be my best option
Linear or tactile switch + the quieter the better (I have other people living in the house)
USB-C port for charging/connecting
Low profile! (duh)
✨Extra Preference
Hot swappable switches/keys are a plus
Weight doesn’t matter, it will be sitting on my desk 24/7
Shine-through keycaps are a plus
Primarily used for gaming, but great typing experience is a HUGE plus
Having 1000Hz polling rate or more is a plus
Wired/wireless doesn’t matter, but wireless is more preferred
Mechanical keys preferred
🤔 My Current Options
Logitech G915 X Lightspeed TKL
ASUS Falchion RX Low Profile
Logitech G515 Lightspeed TKL
💻 (Extra Info) My Experience With Keebs
Quite new to mechanical keyboards / custom keyboards
Frequent laptop/apple keys user, switching to low profile keys after 9 months of high profile use (don’t like arm/wrist rests as well)
Relatively light typist, does a lot of typing/translation work
Causal gamer, plays various games from FPS to RPGs
Familiar with linear switches (silent ones too), don’t prefer clicky noise
Interested in using tactile switch (never used one before)
Small hands, short arms
If there are also cheap alternatives that can be used with white shine-through keycaps, I’m also open for those options. I also don’t mind all the little bells and whistles (knobs, buttons etc.) as long as it fits all the preferences that are listed above.
Thanks again for your time and I look forward to hear your opinions about it! :)

Hey
I don't have much knowledge in the keyboard world so I was looking for some suggestions.
Currently I am using the HP GK100F and honestly it sucks. the keys are way too loud and tall and it just gets in the way of my hands so I'm looking for something softer and rather low profile not like laptop keys but shorter than the basic gaming mechanical keyboards.
I've been eyeing the Logitech G815 but I've heard mixed opinions about it.
So do you guys have any suggestions on a good quality low profile keyboard that gives me a better experience.
also not a big fan of 60% keyboards so 100% would be ideal and I don't care if its wired or not.
