Sorry for the misspelling on the title by the way. I do know how to spell "Suggested".
Openings are up to you.

Hi guys,
I'm rated about 1690 and I'm usually playing either Spanish, Italian or Queen's gambit when playing white, and I'm a bit bored of them. I've tried the King's Indian a few times but didn't really like it, and found it quite complex, so I was wondering what other openings I could add to my repertoire that don't require a crazy amount of study but are still playable for white. Any suggestions are more than welcome.

This post really makes no sense.
How do you figure to play the Queen's Gambit when playing White and avoiding the King's Indian?
You are White, and you play 1.d4, and Black doesn't play 1...d5, but rather, 1...Nf6. Now what?
If you play 2.c4, Black can play 2...g6, 2...e6, 2...c5, etc. 2...e6 might even transpose back to the Queen's Gambit.
You've got a lot more work to do before you start trying to deviate from what you already play.

Ok mate, chill out. Was just asking for some suggestions so I can try out new things.
At my current level people don't go too crazy on transpositions etc and I'm cool with it, I know a few lines of the openings I play and I have fun with them, I'd just like to hear about other ways open I might like, no need to be so arrogant.

Don't get me wrong, I have fun with them and I like them, I was just asking for other ones that are also fun to play.

At 1690, knowing about one line per common opening is more than enough. Focus on Endgames, on Middlegames, on Tactics. All those things are much more needed than openings at your level.
a) Completely agree with @Robert_New_Alekhine
b) Maybe the London System? it still is played at grandmaster level.

Thank you guys. Will check it out. And yeah, I totally agree on focussing on middlegame etc, I know that has not to be neglected.

Kamsky plays the London.
