Hey guys i've been in the market recently for a new keyboard. And i'm looking at getting a mech, but I don't want to spend my entire bank on it :/

I tried going to OCN and they told me all the big company's boards were shit and that I should get a filco or other weird brands that involves spending £130 on a brand that is not well known, and with only like a year warranty.

I am looking for a nice board that is easy to press the keys - like mx reds and mx browns, but I don't know what board to pick :/

The Razer BlackWidow very soft to press and makes almost no sound.
And for gaming it has a few macro keys.

I was looking around for mechanical keyboards myself not that long ago and I saw these:

Obviously buying a used one would be cheaper but with the way gamers treat their keyboards I honestly would suggest against getting a used keyboard I've had pretty good experiences with Corsair so far with various other components so if it were me I'd be willing to give them a shot on a keyboard. IMO, stay away from the Blackwidow Ultimate.. Razer products are very nice but they have a tendency to break very easily. :s
