    Not all mechanical keyboards are noisy. Just get something with Cherry MX black switch if you are worried about noise. I'm still waiting for my Cherry MX brown switch. It is not 'clicky', but I will see how quiet it is.

    Finally I got my Ducky DK9008G2 Brown switch! The feel is great! But the space bar is not so great... The built quality looks average for the price IMO.

    But I love the Cherry MX brown switch a lot! It is not so noisy like the blue switch, but the tactile feedback is still there! So it is still possible to type in 'sleeping mode'.

    honestly its better to get blackwidow ultimate than the xarmor, its somewhat quite similarly built like blackwidow but a notch or two down

    if really keen on bling illuminated y not ducky shine unless dont like the bland look

    Ic ic...Forgot about X6. I don't think there's many other keyboards with that feature.

    That Sidewinder X6 is a pretty cool keyboard. I love the detachable numpad though. :)
