What does it mean, MLX Plasma? Are they silent or clicky?

Looks like the tactile version is on sale for $120 as well, so this one from OP is linear (silent).

Just seeing from reviews- does NOT work with iCue software at the moment (uses a web portal). Also no USB passthrough.

Not trying to derail this thread/deal, but after several test runs of high-end brand mechanical keyboards with none ever feeling just right, I landed on the Redragon brand. Best keyboard I have ever owned. No fumbling of keypresses, perfect response time, nice RGB options, and not outrageously priced.

If big names on the label don't matter to you, I highly recommend this keyboard after a solid year of use and having absolutely nothing negative to report about it.

I'm using that exact keyboard (blue switches) and love it. Highly recommended.

There are far better keyboards outside of the big gaming brands. Nuphy, Wooting, Keychron, Drop.......far superior typing feel and better build quality than any of the gaming brands. And most of them are cheaper than the "gaming" boards. And they have hot swap switches so if a key screws up just have to replace the switch.

My cheap free red dragon keyboard from microcenter was pretty solid I thought. Good suggestion.
