I've got my son his first gaming PC for Christmas and am looking for a suitable keyboard.
I'd like to get one with a number pad, but I'm hoping to find one that is quite narrow as it needs to fit onto a slide out keyboard tray on his desk and allow room for his mouse too; most tend to be about 44cm wide but I'm hoping to find one maybe 40cm or slightly less ideally.
Happy with wired or wireless if the wireless is good enough to keep up with fast key presses. My only experience of a wireless keyboard was some years ago at work and it couldn't keep up with key presses when working quickly in Photoshop which drove me mad. I'm sure newer ones are better and faster though.
Budget...up to about £20 unless there is something really good for not a huge amount more.
Any suggestions would be very much welcomed.

I have found one which would be fab if it weren't as expensive and US layout...
