Hi guys, completing my build with buying a keyboard but can't find the right one. i want the following features and would appreciate any knowledge or decent keyboards.
-backlit
-audio jacks defo (usb ports would be handy not essential)
-wired
-some macros
would prefer mechanical but if you know it's a decent membrane keyboard then give us a shout. Price range under 100 quid I guess.
Something like the steelseries apex or recent logitech gaming boards (logitech g510s) would be awesome just a tad cheaper.
Cheers for any help!

Well audio ports are hard to find on a less than $100 keyboard. You've named a few but I managed to find these

It's mechanical, but so-so reviews.

Lastly, the razer blackwidow probably fits your description perfectly...but I personally hate razer :$ hehe . Synapse 2.0 headaches and in recent years quality in products has gone down along with worst customer support. Many people enjoy them though :p...

If you can live without the audio jack, the sidewinder is the best non-mechanical keyboard for it's price and still has everything you want. Very well made and durable hardly anyone has problems with them.
