Although we do love a good mechanical keyboard here at KitGuru, we?re not blind to the fact that it is not the only way to do things. There are of course traditional membrane, rubber done keys and the more laptop orientated scissor switch, a modified version of which is what i-rocks has utilised in its new Golem Series K50E board. It has quite a standard look compared to the average LED festooned gaming board, but this one does have a basic level of backlighting, a few media keys and some subtle styling.

Is it worth its modest price tag and is it a worthy alternative to the many mechanical boards dominating the peripheral scene?
