I would pick K100 over K95 just because K100 is compatible with the majority of standard Cherry-style keycap sets with its new layout..

I bought the K100 at Best Buy the last time it dropped to this price. I took it back after a week. I could not get past the pinging noises from the body of the keyboard when I typed. It wasn't the sounds from the key switches that was bad, but it was the follow ping that was too noticeable while doing any sort of typing. Too bad because I liked the other things about the keyboard.

and I thought DAS keyboard was expensive... that one also I had to return because of the pinging noise from the after-effect of pressing the spacebar.... i'm happy with my logitech MX Keys now but i'm mostly all typing, no gaming. previously I was using Rosewill brown switch which was fine, but the keys having much longer travel being the cherry mechanical does make you put much more effort when you're typing thousands of keystrokes per day.

These overpriced keyboards are more problematic.
Like the washing machines with 20 functions that break because of them.

Once you're over the gimmicky K95/100 that's the size of a battleship, the next step is the GMMK Pro. Just in case anyone is interested in skipping a step. After the GMMK Pro, you're talking serious dough for a keeb

I have a Redragon optical brown switch keyboard that makes that pinging sound...but I quite like it lol.

I paid $183 for my i5 11400.

A keyboard shouldn't cost more than a CPU.

I have a K95 w/MX Speeds that just collecting dust since I the 60% keeb my friend gave me is less of an eye sore.

FN key makes the numberpad and other keys just take up space.
