Our Verdict
Redragon K582 SURARA RGB
EVGA Z12
The Redragon K582 SURARA RGB and the EVGA Z12 are both full-size wired gaming keyboards. If you prefer a mechanical switch, the Redragon is available with Redragon Brown, Red, and Blue switches, and it's also hot-swappable. Also, if you like customizing your RGB backlighting, you can set a different color to each key. Comparatively, the EVGA has zone-lit backlighting, so you can't customize it as much. It isn't mechanical and comes with EVGA Membrane switches. Its latency is much lower than the Redragon's, though still a bit high, and it has dedicated media keys and dedicated macro keys.
