Mad Catz V5

This is a TKL keyboard running Membrane switches. A wired connection and single-color backlighting round out the spec sheet. TKL frees mouse space without sacrificing the function row. Switch feel is personal; try the switch type before committing if you can.

Its $69.99 price tag places it squarely in mid-range territory. Drop it into the PlanMyPC builder to check compatibility with the rest of your parts and compare current keyboard prices across retailers. Support and warranty service run through Mad, with terms that vary by region. The full specification sheet below breaks out every listed detail, and the compatibility checker flags conflicts with parts already in your build.
