Hello. I’m searching for a TKL board with dedicated media keys, volume wheel, and brown switches.

I just can’t do linears. Just don’t feel right.

I’ve browsed around, both on amazon and in microcenter and everything seems to be linear switches nowadays and even when I find one with browns, they rarely have the media keys I need.

I’m also not trying to pay $100+ for a keyboard. Spent way too much money on boards of that price for them to keel over and die as quick as the china fodder on amazon. (For example the K70 mk.2 that I have that refuses to not go bonkers whenever it feels like it.)

Thanks to anyone that can offer some help finding me something.

    spend 10-15 bucks on a switch tester pack

    Op mentioned microcenter. If they have a microcenter nearby, they might have a switch tester pack you can test for free. That’s how I found what switches I liked best.

    Went to my local microcenter’s keyboard section and asked an employee there if I could test out the different switches. They let me try a switch tester board.
