This is basically the same switch that are in my BlackWidow, but the Razer Green switches have an audible click. Also, by jarring, I'm talking relative pressure on your fingers and joints that likely isn't noticeable in the short term. I can tell the difference over longer sessions, but it is more obvious when you are typing vs gaming.

To clarify.
The K68 i have is my current keyboard. This is the first mechanical keyboard I ever owned. I am bottoming the keys out. I used to have a Razer membrane keyboard (don't remember model) All our work keyboards are membrane. Years of using crappy keyboards that needed firm keystrokes has made me type like this. Also is most likely what I don't get fatigue or really notice or care about bottoming out. |

Actually, I'm surprised keyboards haven't just devolved into a LCD touch screen with SWIPE, since that is what most people use 90% of the time anyway. Probably more costly than a $5 throwaway keyboard which is the problem.

From the few reviews I have bothered to watch re the RX6800 I am thinking that this will be my next graphics card. The RX6800XT's negligible increase in performance doesn't warrant the increase in price.
I have gone anti Nvidia because of this:

Could I get some input on this possible set up? Im a noob, like I mentioned earlier on the thread. I'm still missing a video card. I was thinking RTX 2060 but is becoming quite hard to find. The budget is about $1000 more or less.
This is what I got so far. CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core 4.2 Ghz Max Boost SSD: XPG SX8200 Pro 1TB Motherboard: MSI MPG X570 Gaming Plus Cooling: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo 4 CDC Heatpipes, 120mm Fan Power: Corsair CX Series 450 Watt 80+ Bronze Certified Case: NZXT H510 Ram: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB (2X16) 3200MHz Video: N/A

I wouldn't future-limit yourself. If you want it to be good for a while, get something with 650-700w. It won't use the wattage, but will often come with cables and connections to support beefier things in the future. 450w may be adequate, but if you're doing a build, don't shoot for " adequate". There's not really a cost difference between 450 and something in the 700w range. You'll thank yourself for having overhead someday.
I would also suggest getting something that's modular. Not necessary, but cleans things up and the convenience is worth the extra cost https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Catego.../CP-9020061-NA This would be my suggestion

Sweet. Like I mentioned, I'm shooting for a little over $1000 but I'm open to any improvements on the build, It will be my first build ever. Any suggestions on RAM and Videocard?

On the GPU, if you are gaming this will be the most critical part of the build. Basically, buy the best card you can for the budget you have. Look at speed tests on Tom's Hardware and other such sites then find the one that matches your budget. I typically buy one level down from the top tier because the top tier usually have a stupid amount of geek tax associated with them. It's likely your build will survive a couple of video card upgrades in the future. I've found that I usually upgrade video cards every two or three years and buy/build a whole new system every 6 to 8 years. I'm not typically running games at the bleeding edge though as I actually prefer it with some of they eye candy turned down a bit.
