Hi everybody! I type a lot since i am a programmer and a student but i also play videogames (like minecraft and various indies) and since my setup is pratically just a laptop and a mouse it sometimes is just not very comfortable so i want to buy for my first time a keyboard

I was looking for a keyboard that is not smaller than a 75% and the XDA profile is my preferred, for switches…well i don’t really know much but something not very noisy would be good

there are any mechanic keyboard under 25€? I am very low budget and i may even consider to buy from second hand markets and I can build it myself if that mean that i can save money;

thank you for using your time to answer!

        Thank you for the info, so from what i understood red switches are the most silent ones right? I tried to do some research to understand better what i want to buy

      You’re a lot more likely to find something at a local second hand store or garage sale, at least you would be in the US. Things online will usually have a markup, whereas locally you’re likely to find something someone just doesn’t know it’s worth a damn.
