Why is there no chroma (rgb) with blue switches?????

Wish they had no painted symbols on their keys. I mean whats the point of backlighting with painted symbols in a dark room.

As I wrote above:

"Razer told me that the reason there’s no RGB option with Cherry switches is that its requirements for Chroma are too high -- that the white of Cherry’s LEDs aren’t as “true” nor as bright as Razer’s."

I am spoiled with my Corsair mechanical. When I see razor products I tend to think expensive junk plastic keyboards that break easily

Wow decent prices on the low end, especially for something with the Razer logo. I prefer Browns myself for a fairly quiet multi-purpose keyboard, but Blues are popular and the price is fair.

Yeah, I should have called that out better: $60 for a good mech keyboard is a sweet deal!

IBM Model M was the finest keyboard we had used in 30+ years as professionals.

Two Model M Space Savers have been retired, and replaced with Black Widow Tournament models, one Chroma, one not.

Try one.
