For my first build I'm going to need to get a gaming mouse and keyboard, and low noise level is a must. Recently went to my local BestBuy to check out some of the "tester" keyboards and mice there. The Razor mice and keyboards were all pretty loud. Interestingly, Logitech seemed to have the most quiet gear there on display. Specifically I was very impressed with how quiet the G602 Wireless Gaming mouse was. Although it is wireless the mouse clicks were almost dead silent. On the other hand the Logitech Orion 910 Orion keyboard was also very quiet, although it is priced at $179.99 and I probably would never pay that much for a keyboard. The Razor products at BB seemed to be the exact opposite of what I was looking for, as the keys were very clicky and just overall loud with hardly any pressure on it.

Can anyone recommend me some quiet gaming keyboards and mice similar to the noise levels of these two Logitech products, or just something very quiet in general. Preferably wired and a keyboard that is mechanical.

I'm more interested in finding a quiet keyboard as I am a mouse. Worst case, I can pick up the G602 mouse, however I am completely clueless on finding a decently priced(under $100) ultra quiet gaming keyboard.

Can you recommend me some keyboards that use red or brown switches, preferably around $100. However, if it's a bit more than that that's okay.

I was all set to order a keyboard with Cherry MX Clear, which have no click from the breakover. However, I listened to a number of YouTube reviews and all of the Cherry's make a sharp, high-pitched clack either/or when the keys hit bottom or when they bounce up and hit something. They all sound sorta like when you forget to take a bunch of nails or bolts out of your pocket before you put your jeans in the washing machine.

The Topre Typeheaven is perhaps not intended as a gaming keyboard (see youtube reviews) and it does make some noise, but it is much lower pitch (has been compared to a horse clop-clopping) and not as loud.

Unlike you, I don't need a gaming keyboard, just wanted to replace one I ruined, and have ordered the i-rocks KR-6260-BK from Walmart, where it was less than half the price of Newegg. It is considered a gaming keyboard,and apparently has some key rollover. A user of this forum described the feel of the keyboard so well, and it sounded so much like what I want that I am springing for it at less than $20, though I was prepared to pay several times as much.
