I randomly got recommended Hipyo Tech on YouTube one day and since have been watching his videos. I haven't got a clue about mechanical keyboards, but I have strong tastes in terms of aesthetics. Long story short, I kept checking shit out and stumbled across a keyboard he hasn't reviewed yet and I think I'm in love. But I don't know if it's any good or is even Linux compatible. So… is the ATK V75X a decent purchase? Or does it suck?

The look I'm interested in, is the all matte black oka Gunmetal. I don't have the foggiest about the difference between the switches.

Honestly, there's other options, some even might be cheaper. But the build quality might be worse as well. Keychron Q (aluminium body) and V (ABS plastic body) are known quantities.

Yeah, I definitely prefer aluminium. I'm trying to avoid the massive bezels and also go for an ISO layout to support the UK keyboard, hence the limited options.
