Haha sure man, the hunstamn te costs 100, good luck building a custom for that much.
And if you want the full sized, the blackwidow is currently 150 on amazon(https://www.amazon.com/Razer-BLACKWIDOW-Esports-Gaming-Keyboard/dp/B07K1VXCDR/ref=sr_1_5?crid=3QJ5JJID29Z91&dchild=1&keywords=razer+huntsman+elite&qid=1631104738&sprefix=razer+hunstman+%2Caps%2C459&sr=8-5)
At 150, I get:-
A full sized keyboard
A wrist rest
A volume knob
Separate media keys
I couldn’t care less about how my keyboard sounds lmao, I’m wearing my headphones most of the time anyways.As for the feel, I personally liked the blackwidow and have no complaints.
I do NOT want a tiny keyboard, or heck, even a tkl. I need the full size personally.

I’m currently choosing between 3/4 keyboards. The Ducky one 2 rgb line up (excluding the mini) and the Razer BlackWidow Elite. Which one do you guys recommend? I’ll be using this for programming, school, Guitar Pro (using lots of functions) and gaming.
TL;DR Which size should I get and if it’s full size, ducky or razer?

By use case, I meant what would you use it for (gaming, programming, writing, etc.) which you’ve already answered. (“work and video games”)
You’d definitely be able to fit a full size keyboard and palm rest on your desk, which is good.
Some people really like Leopold keyboards https://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?pg=1&l=product_list&c=172 supposedly the PBT keycaps and overall build quality ranks among the best. I’ve never seen one in person, let alone used one, so I can’t personally vouch for them. If you think Leopold is expensive… you’d be right. One of the brands well-known for its cheap price is Keychron, and their new C2 keyboard might be just what you’re looking for https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-c2-wired-mechanical-keyboard?variant=39311466168409 they’re also available on Amazon, where they weren’t sold out last I checked. There are a few other brands whose prices range between those extremes, but they aren’t as well known. One last thing: you can get used keyboards on r/mechmarket, this is where Reddit enthusiasts buy and sell used keyboards, you’ll find some pretty astronomical prices here but also possibly some good deals.
Regarding software features, I’m referring to the ability to remap the keys. For example, some people like to replace their caps lock key with the escape, backspace, or ctrl keys. Many gaming keyboards can store macros. The ability to disable the Windows key is probably one of the more common features; even Leopold keyboards have a physical switch to do that. Of course, pretty much any keyboard with key remapping is also going to have RGB in it.
There is also software that tries to reproduce the features of gaming keyboards, on the computer itself. A popular example of this is AutoHotKey. The important difference between AutoHotKey and gaming keyboards is that AutoHotKey runs on the computer, while gaming keyboard remapping software actually runs on a processor in the keyboard itself. Many video games will bypass AutoHotKey (either for anti-cheat or just to improve responsiveness) but cannot bypass software running within the keyboard. Technically I think the Razer Blackwidow Elite https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07K1VXCDR/ is the best full size gaming keyboard right now just because it’s an older model and cheap, but its keycaps really don’t look great without the RGB turned on. You could just set the backlight to a single solid color or turn down the intensity.
Most importantly, you don’t need a gaming keyboard unless you want to remap your keyboard while gaming. AutoHotKey or similar software will work in pretty much any other situation.

Ah, aight. I’d recommend the Razer Blackwidow Elite: https://www.amazon.com/Razer-BLACKWIDOW-Esports-Gaming-Keyboard/dp/B07K1VXCDR
The yellow switches are, IMO, the smoothest and best linear stock switch out there regarding your choice of brands.

new is 99$, yellow switch and everything
·
should mention a price range and if you want a full or 10-key-less.
This is pretty good, but not sure what you have for a budget.
