I mean it's 300$
I love the features. But then again it is 300$.
NEVER MIND ABOUT THIS KEYBOARD!!!!!!!!!
What is the best mechanical keyboad? do they come out with new keyboards as soon as every new game?
 
Solution
imo it comes down to the features, will you ever use them? do you need them? sure it is a bada$$ keyboard but you can get a mechanical keyboard with macros and programmable keys for around half the price. so it really comes down to your needs if you are going to make full use of all the extras then yeah id say it is worth it. if you can live without them and save yourself 150-180 dollars then i would get something else
this ones got some cool features and has cherry mx black and is a fraction of the price

yeah that's a nice keyboard..... I am going to save up 2000$ maybe less for a computer build and other things like, headset, keyboard, monitor, mouse and so on. I will give that keyboard a look.

you would be better off going with spending no more than 120 dollars on keyboard and no more than 30-50 on mouse and use the rest for gpu/cpu/monitor. you can also ask for a custom system build recommendation on here and we will get you the best bang for your buck. just specify with the keyboard if you want mechanical or not and which switch types you prefer if any.
just to give you an idea

this setup leaves you 250 dollars for a good keyboard/mouse/headset
you can also save money on the monitor, this is a ips 27" or the case but just to give you an idea how much you should spend in each component to get the most bang for your buck
