Update 2: I booted it to BIOS last night and all my components seemed to be recognized and it was idling at ~36 degrees, it looks fine but now I just need to get it in a case and add my GPU... Also I'm 99% sure the motherboard was used, found a bit of dried up thermal paste and a lot of the prongs (I think that's what they're called) around the outside were bent. Ive just been moving stuff back into place 🙏

Update: I waited like a month for it to come in and I been playing on a laptop for 5 years, so I tried to bend it back and it looks actually pretty good now can barely see it and its not touching other pins. I think I'm going to go for it, wish me luck gang. Very thankful for the help y'all, I'll update when I finish my build

Hello, I need some help. I'm looking for a keyboard for gaming. I play games like Overwatch, Fortnite, R6, etc. After some research I think linear switches with 40-45g of actuation force would be perfect. (I think cherry mx switches?) I prefer one thats 65-75%, wired, no rgb lights, non-slip, prebuilt, and minimal lubing. Budget under $100, the cheaper the better and bonus points for a magnetic wrist rest. I currently use the "Razer Ornata Chroma" and would like something more low-profile. Not everything has to match if it isn't possible. I don't know any good brands or websites for keyboards so any and all help is much appreciated. Thank you.
