87 keys, volume knob, hot-swappable PCB, Dual Super Buttons (two massive programmable A and B buttons) and it looks amazing.

Yeah, last year I finally dipped my toes in mechanical keyboarding and my 2 requirements were to have a numpad and some media keys for volume and play/pause. It was actually kinda a nightmare to find.

Yep. Took me forever and I never found one I was completely satisfied with.

I'm rocking the GMMK Pro with the KBD Pad MK II

I eventually found a red dragon keyboard that I'm fairly happy with. I bought some custom key caps because the ones that it came with were Ugly.

It has a volume scroll wheel thing that's pretty cool. Some macro programming stuff that idk what anyone really needs.
