Hello, I am currently interested in buying a mechanical keyboard and the Corsair Vengeance K65 has caught my attention since it's on sale.

I don't really mind having the number pad missing and I think I will like the mx red switches because how easy you can type with it (fyi, I never bought a mechanical keyboard before so any warnings or tips would be nice).

Currently on Newegg, it's $69.99 and I was wondering if I should get it or perhaps there's another keyboard that you guys may suggest. Any response would be greatly appreciated.

Once you find out which Switch color you want to use, a few keyboards that i would recommend:
Ducky Zero, or Ducky Shine Zero (Shine version has back lighting) (All Switch Colors) (Sorry couldn't find a good link)
CM Storm Quickfire Rapid (All Switch Colors)
Corsair Vengeance K-series (Most Switch Types) (Just search them...
