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!

I understand if you are on low budget but don't skimp on whatever you use and touch every day. Buy something dirt cheap and save up to something good that you can enjoy later on when you have the money. You only have one body and if sitting at the computer is how you use it, take care of it!! If it cost money, so be it. Mouse, keyboard, screen and the biggest thing is a good chair. Take care of yourself.
