Looking for similar to 6Gv2 with ISO layout

Hi all,

I'm looking for a mechanical keyboard to replace my dell keyboard (custom machine but never changed the keyboard...).

One of these:

I'm looking for something with a clean look like the SteelSeries 6Gv2 but with an ISO layout.

ISO layout (standard UK layout):

Looking for it to include a numpad and for a proper windows key unlike the 6Gv2 (which specifically re-purposed the key to prevent accidentally coming out of a game).

Any thoughts?

We had those at college, best keyboards I've ever used for typing.

Yeah they are pretty reasonable although long term not the most comfortable.

I need to get something more suitable for hybrid use (games and typing) and probably need to invest in some wrist rests as well.

I don't know how decent the Razer blackwidow ultimate keyboards are as I don't own one but when i had my hands on one of them they seemed good quality and durable, if you don't mind the noise that would be one of my picks .

Blackwidow Ultimate isn't ISO layout unfortunately.

Seems surprisingly difficult to find an ISO layout mechanical keyboard similar to this Dell keyboard...

Most of the "ISO layout" designs I find either have a large left shift or the non-ISO style Enter key.
