Corsair K95 Platinum keys are too "tall" for me - Alternatives?

Hey,

 

I have a K95 Platinum. I was looking forward to the MX Brown switches and the mechanical keyboard feeling and all. After a few months of use, I realise that I have many more spelling mistakes than in the past. My hands are large, yet I feel that the keys on the K95 have a little too much height, which results in me hitting 2 keys at the same time or things like that. I also feel that the keys are spaced just a tad too far apart, which also results in me not hitting the key I'm targeting, but one that is next to it, if, for example. I'm hitting a "u" with my pointy finger and next want to hit "#" with my pinky finger. 

 

I'm therefore looking for a keyboard that lets me type very swiftly and preferably without much of a clickyclacky noise. I'm a developer. Macro-keys would be nice.

 

Many thanks!

Any product suggestions? :D

Tesoro makes a lot of slim keyboards, where the key caps and the keys are slimmer but provide a similar feeling (I believe)
