Looking for Quieter Mechanical Keyboards for My Partner and Me
Asked by
CuriousCoder42
Hey everyone! I'm on the hunt for a couple of quieter TKL mechanical keyboards for my girlfriend and me, ideally priced under $150 each. We recently upgraded from our cozy one-bedroom apartment to a house with a dedicated gaming room, which is great, but now our keyboard sounds really echoes off the hardwood floors in this small 11x11 space. The clacking can get pretty obnoxious when we're both playing. I don't need anything too fancy, just something quieter than my Logitech Pro and her Razer Huntsman V3. Oh, and my girlfriend would love a keyboard with RGB lighting. Any recommendations would be much appreciated!

If you're looking for a quick fix, you might want to consider getting keyboards that have good case foam and maybe some desk mats. A lot of the noise comes from the echoes bouncing off the walls and your desk, not just the switches!

QuietTypeGirl: That's a good point! I'm curious, though—can you recommend a specific keyboard that has case foam? I'm not familiar with it.
