Best Budget Gaming Keyboard (£40)

[JOOK-D]

Hey,

I'm looking for the best budget keyboard for £40 or under.
This could also become just a general discussion thread for budget keyboards.

Not too fussed whether they're membrane or mechanical since this is a low price (however if there is a mechanical for just slightly more I may opt for it).

Features I'm looking for:
+Macro Keys
+Illuminated Keys
+Dedicated Volume Control Keys
+Possibly windows lock key
+Anti-ghosting

What I've narrowed it down to so far:
+Corsair Raptor K30
+Microsoft Sidewinder X4 (discontinued?)

Any suggestions from personal experience or knowledge? Cheers.

The Sidewinder x4 doesn't seem discontinued on Amazon... o_o (at least amazon.com)

Seems so on the uk site.

For around your budget, I recommend the Razer arctosa.

I use Microsoft Sidewinder X4 for a year now and im pretty happy with it to be honest.
The only ''problem'' that some people might find is that due to the material that is made of dust is quite visible after some days . But if you clean once a week with one of these wipes that attacts dust then it's fine. To be honest I don't thing it's a problem cause I find an excuse to clean one of the dirtiest things at home.. THE KEYBOARD 😀
Other that that I got no problems at all and it has everything you mentioned.
