I saved up $100 (I don't have a job) and I can get either of the things in the title. Which one should I prioritize?
Stuff i want
Corsair K70 Cherry MX Blue (I want a Blue keyboard :D)
CTL-480

Would the keyboard make more sense because I'll use it for almost everything? I started drawing about a year ago, but I wouldn't say I'd use the tablet for much more than osu.

Keyboard hands down. You will use they keyboard for nearly everything on the computer and your QOL will go up.

I would prioritize tablet since you can't start soon enough to learn playing with tablet. you'll just delay the learning curve. also you already have a keyboard. any keyboard will do for the start.

if you really have to watch the budget but want both i would suggest you get a cherry mx board 3.0 with blues and a ctl 480. if you just take a look around youll get both together for 100-120€ in total.

Operating force is only like 55g. Omron switches on mice are 75g+.

Even if it costs less, I'm probably going to stay away from Huion. Everywhere I've read didn't have many positive things to say about their build quality.

-idk how to rate best answer RIP. I'll do it on my computer when I get home if I can

I'm 100% getting Blues. Reds feel scarcely better than my membrane keyboard which actually doesn't feel as mushy as other ones. Blues made gave me handgasms and I've never tried Browns.

the problem with blues is that they dont give a perfectly syncronized acoustic feedback with the actuation point. and the reset point is higher than the click distance. and since people tend to bottom out their keys later on anyways blues dont make any sense since the bottoming out is all red switch players need as tactile/haptic feedback. and after a certain amount of time i used blues i didn't even pay attention to the tactility anymore. all that matter was the bottom out feel.

Huion actually had good quality for almost all the products with the exception being the H420 (which is a budget tablet)

I'm just looking for a keyboard that feels really nice to type on while providing a noticeable difference over a membrane keyboard for osu. While most people that have reds say they are much better, I haven't really seen someone that owns blues say they were any worse for osu than reds. If the difference is very big, I'm definitely interested in the K65 for the tkl.

-I guess this turned more into Which keyboard rather than Tablet or Keyboard
