Bit of background: I've currently got a Logitech G15 from back in early TBC (very worn), and I've tried to upgrade to a mechanical keyboard in the past, when I got a 6gv2 with black switches, which was far too loud for me (ended up selling it and going back to my G15).
Since then I've occasionally looked for "silent" mechanical keyboards, and all I can find are "gaming" keyboards with heavy backlights and other fairly useless functions just to tack on a higher price tag for the "gamers" who want "gamer" gear.
My question is simple: are there any good mechanical keyboards that don't cost half a fortune and are also silent? If not, what non-mechanical keyboard would you suggest?
