Solid keyboard overall. Purchased it when it was on sale for $50, have been using it for about 4 months. Got the KBT brown switches option, work just fine for me typing or otherwise. The cable is fixed but can be routed through 3 different in an underside channel. Backlighting works well, can't comment on any fancy lighting options since I was never interested in those to begin with, but it does a breathing thing if you're into that. N-key rollover is glorious after my last cheapo keyboard. You can also disable/enable the Windows key if you find yourself smacking that accidentally from time to time.
However, this keyboard gets some serious points docked for it's spacebar. The thing has trouble going down smoothly unless you hit dead center and sticks like crazy just above its actuation point unless you give it a good whack. It will not return to its original position unless you pull up on it when it gets stuck. Could probably be sorted out with some grease or something but it should not have been an issue on something with a $100 price point. It really throws you off when typing at speed and the darn thing sticks unless you get used to hammering it just right.
Removing the keycap shows them to be brown switches, but they feel like reds, my fault, guess i should have gone with blues for typing but i wont complain.
Only complaint is the spacebar does not like to go down smoothly unless you press it in the center. Offset to either side and it binds while pressing down, messes up the flow of typing.
