HI,

Im trying to find a decent keyboard with the following features:

* Rgb
* fixed wrist rest
* noise level similar to membrane keyboards ( low noise )

the closest one i could find was logitech g213, however i heard they are noisy like mechanical keyboard



 
It really depends on what you mean by "noisy like a mechanical keyboard". If you're talking about the clicky sound from the keys, then you'll want to go something with a Cherry MX Silent or Cherry MX Red. In which case the one Chugalug recommended would be good.

If you mean the inherent noise mechanicals make because of the keys hitting bottom, then you either get a mechanical keyboard and put o-rings on them keys so they don't make as much noise (but it will block some of the LED light), or get a gaming membrane keyboard.

I suggest a Corsair K70 RGB Rapidfire with Cherry MX Speed keys (or Brown). Very high quality but I think the font on the older model is better. P.S. I have a Corsair K70 non-rgb with Cherry MX-Brown paired with a corsair M65 Pro RGB mouse.

If you are concerned about noise buy a set of these as it really reduces the noise signifiantly (I also installed them):

P.S. You get a keycap puller if you buy the keyboard so you don't need one.
 
The problem is even an MS Silent board isn't silent. Mechanical keyboards are inherently noisy, even with silent keys. The O-rings at least address some of the noise factor if the OP wants a choice in keyboards. If they aren't interested in any noise at all, then a gaming membrane keyboard is likely their best bet.
 
HI,

im totally ok with non-mechanical keyboards.

none of the above suggested models have fixed arm rest. i just found one more model: Razer DeathStalker Chroma - Multi-Color RGB Membrane Gaming Keyboard
 


Do you mean a fixed wrist rest? Then the Steel Series I linked would work too. I, and the vast majority of friend who have had Razer products in the last few years have had bad luck with their quality control, so I tend to not recommend them. But a lot of people like the Death Stalker, so go with what ya like.
 
I've won various Razer products over the last year, their mousepads are alright, their keyboards are relatively good, and their Deathadder Chroma is amazing, I honestly couldn't go back to any other mouse. :) Heads up, I didn't buy any of this stuff so I can't speak for the value on the Blackwidow Chroma, which is an absolute ripoff compared to a K70 or otherwise.
The deathstalker is quite good as a portable solution, and feels solid although i've only tested it on display.
 


I wish I had the same results. I'm currently using a Razer Mamba 2012 thats in the process of falling apart in my hands. The battery starts losing its ability to hold a charge after a few months, and are so expensive for the high capacity ones that it's cheaper to buy a new mouse than replace it. My roommate has had the thumb button start breaking in to the body of his Death Adder. Another friend is on his 3rd go around with his Blackwidow. Which all saddens me, because the feel and size of the Razer equipment has always fit my hands really well.
