hi, this is my main monitor --
https://www.amazon.com/Acer-K242HYL-bid-23-8-inch-Monitor/dp/B01LY3DB9J/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1496544089&sr=8-1&keywords=Acer%20K242HYL%20bid%2023.8-inch%20IPS%20Full%20HD
I'm looking for either a better main monitor, or one that's similar to this for a 2nd monitor (so i can do things etc)
keyboard: im looking for a good cherry mx brown (pls no full keyboards) i have a 10keyless, but idc if 10 keyless or no arrows etc, just smaller than a full (no desk room)
price range for both ~ 100-150 each -- will donate 25fg per helped item and/or 50 for both
ty!
time of purchase is this friday (6/9)
this is the only keyboard i've found so far that I like:

Well not a lot of wiggle room with that budget.
This will match your current monitor and has slightly better

If you play a lot of games, especially competitive ones I would highly recommend saving up a bit more for this

The keyboard you found is pretty darn solid.

And the Keyboard you linked yourself.
If you can get the room for a keyboard with numbpad:
