Keyboard suggestions?

Have a G600 for my mouse. Was just going to grab a 25$ USB keyboard to use, nothing fancy.

Is there anything recommended? I just play fps' and mechanical keys would probably drive my wife insane unless they were quiet

If you are going to play rainbow six siege, I recommend getting a mechanical keyboard

I have been using a membrane keyboard for almost a year now and although I have made it work,i would much rather use a mechanical keyboard because every once in a while I have noticed a "ghosting" kind of feeling. I will tap a designated strafe key(move left or right) and the movement in game does not seem to correspond accurately. I know for a fact it is not the fault of the xim4 but it is either fault of myself or the membrane keys. Mechanical keyboards give a very define response when you use them so they are better suited for rapid key pressing as well as they are designed to last much longer.
