No USB-Passthrough, no RGB, is this that great of a deal at $50?

No, there isn't.

I've owned the previous version of this keyboard and also have this one as a back up and I think these are the best mech keyboards I've used. I've tried a few of the Corsair K series one but these caps feel more sturdier than the rest. Great price if you need a great keyboard.

This is a pretty well made keyboard with a metal chassis, Cherry MX switches, and n-key rollover. I've had two V1 versions of this keyboard for 10 years (blue and brown) with no problems. They still work like new and none of the lettering on the caps has worn off. The only negative is some of the red paint on the chassis has pulled off when I've cleaned it.

This is going to be much better quality than a plastic keyboard with imitation switches. There are definitely better keyboards than this, but they cost more than $50.
