Recommend me your mechanical RGB keyboard

A keyboard is the last thing I need on my PC build but there's too much choice out there with varying price ranges. The best advice I always get these days is on Reddit from people with experience of using a product .
- I've never had a mechanical keyboard before but would like to give one a try. Really no idea what type to choose.
- I don't play anything competitively but play FPS games on keyboard (xbox controller for third person games)
- A numpad is a must as this will double as a work keyboard.
- RGB also but I can't see myself changing the colours up too much once I find something I like (this is the same with the RGB in my PC). I have a lot of Cosair RGB but I don't do much software customisation.
- Wrist rest detachable would be good
- Price - black friday is coming up and I am willing to spend a bit more to get a quality keyboard. But if expensive I would need to understand what benefits it gives over a no-name cheaper RGB mechanical keyboard on amazon.
Thanks!

Nah, the ASUS ROG Strix Scope II 96 is the GOAT.

I own one and I'm disappointed. The keyboard is great but the RGB is not bright/powerful enough.

Well, really cheap, red dragon, clicky as hell (there are some.guides how to upgrade some models). RGB controller from keyboard. I keep one that I want to mod during the Christmas holiday, maybe.
Razer black widow (tkl), seems to always be on an offer. At least in country I remember that you don't need synapse for keyboards. Synapse is worth it when having multiple razer devices, but, for a lonely keyboard/mouse, no. You can try the yellow.switches as they are linear.
Also had a Logitech, liked the Romero switches (rather quite), but I was cursed with double clicks so had to abandon it.

Satisfied?
