We’re rounding up all the best cheap gaming keyboard deals and sales available right now.
A good gaming keyboard can make all the difference even in non-competitive play, but some of the best decks out there can come at a serious premium. By selecting the features you need and sacrificing the extras you won’t use, however, it’s possible to save a significant amount of cash by checking out cheap gaming keyboard deals. That’s exactly what we’re doing here, rounding up all the best cheap gaming keyboards and showing you exactly which ones you should consider based on the features and specs on offer. You’ll find the best cheap mechanical gaming keyboard deals just below, with wireless options further down as well. You can also check out this year’s Black Friday PC gaming deals for more discounts as well. From there we’re rounding up the cheapest gaming keyboard deals from a range of popular brands, so you can skip straight to your preferred make and slot your new deck straight into an existing ecosystem. We’re excited to see the offers pick up as Black Friday 2021 draws even closer. You may even find a comfortable and ergonomic seat to pair it with to maintain good posture in the Black Friday gaming chair deals. We’ve found the cheapest options worth buying here, with a wide range of gaming keyboards under $50. You do tend to sacrifice a few features to secure that price, though, so you’ll find the next step up listed under each option if you do need a little extra. Mechanical gaming keyboards often come at a premium over their hybrid or membrane counterparts, which is why this Logitech G413 is so impressive. Not only are you getting Logitech’s Romer-G switches in here, for a quiet but tactile experience, but there’s also USB passthrough and alternative key caps included. Those features are usually found on far more premium decks, but you are compromising in other areas to achieve such a great price. There’s no customizable RGB here, with only red backlighting to keep you company during those darker sessions. Plus, there are no dedicated macro keys — though the function row is programmable for a nice compromise at this price point. If you’re looking for a super customizable keyboard then, this might not be the best option. However, with 1.5mm switch actuation,26 key rollover, anti-ghosting, and even an adjustable height there’s still plenty to get excited about here. If mechanical switches drive up gaming keyboard prices, wireless connections often cause costs to skyrocket. However, the Corsair K63 Wireless manages to offer both Cherry MX Red mechanical keys and a super fast and incredibly stable 2.4GHz wireless connection for a price well within the budget category. That’s some serious power in a cheap gaming keyboard, though you’re losing a little aesthetic customization to get there. The blue backlight you pull out the box will stay with you, as there’s no RGB customization here. With that smaller design you do also lose out on a number pad and any dedicated macro keys — but with a fully programmable array of keys the Corsair does make up for chopping your deck short. You’ll be juicing up through a Mini USB port, with a 75 hour battery life without backlighting and a 25 hour run time on full brightness.
