I’ve been looking to move on from membrane keyboards and go mechanical, but no matter where I look literally every mech has some form of obnoxious RGB lighting on it. Are there any that just… don’t have it?

    Is that software available for every platform? Whenever I hear Gamer™ features, I assume that the crap customization software for Windows only. I like my mouse, but I can only customize the layout in Windows.

      OpenRGB has support for a ton of devices; just make sure the keyboard is supported before buying it.

      Many higher-end keyboards run QMK, which is a custom firmware you can modify to make all kinds of customizations to your keyboard. And the best part is that it requires no client software, it’s all on-keyboard

        I know about the diy stuff, but I’m talking about the Razor shit. Apparently there in software, but I’ll just as well make a keyboard that I actually own.

          Some might have an unofficial Linux utility, many keyboards also allow you to customise the RGB on The keyboard itself without software
