What is difference between these two keyboards?

So, I am buying new mechanical rgb keyboard. My choices are Corsair gaming strafe rgb, and coolermaster masterkeys mk750. They are both 100€, but the corsair is on sale and its normal price is 160€. So they are both brown switches and rgb. What is that 60€ difference???

Corsair's a veteran in keyboard manufacturing, and their keyboards are higher quality

I'd personally go with Corsair. They have quality that lasts for years. I don't think I've ever owned anything from Corsair or Logitech that have gone bad or broke on me. By the way, make sure you know which switches you want. Red, Brown, Blue, etc.

I have never tried any of the switches but I think that brown sounds best. Its like the middle one between red and blue.

No, its more of its own thing, it has a tactile bump, but no sound when pressed.

 

When the red and blues are pressed you get a small bump and a strong audible click - If you're not sure try to go to bestbuy or somewhere to try keyboard switches that are on display

If you have a store near you with keyboards laid out, try them out. You'll want to hear the clickity-clack in person rather than videos. 

I personally prefer mecha-membrane keys, or Reds. It depends on what I'm doing. 

Reds for gaming, Mechas for work.

CM has sold keyboard for ages too. The Corsair boards all use horrible keycaps, not exactly quality. 

Some CM boards are rebranded Filco boards, so nicer than Corsairs.

The laser etched keycaps don't exactly scream quality.

The reds are linear, they don't have a tactile bump, and they don't produce a click. 

The tactile bump on browns is a lot weaker than on Blues.

Guys does it really matter if I dont go test those switches out? I think its not that big difference between them, so if I get ex. browns, it will be still good for typing and gaming? Because the closest shop where I can try those keyboards on is 90km away so I dont want to go that far. But am I right? Is it REALLY that big deal that what switches I choose? If its going to be red, blue or brown does it really matter?

You accidentally responded within a quote that should have been from me lol

The switches are a semi-big deal. You'll want to know what kind of response and feedback you're getting from your keys. 90km is a bit of a drive just to try them out though. I suppose if you've watched enough reviews and learned more about the switches, than you'll be fine making the decision.

Yea but if I would get browns or red, I dont think that matters right? They both are good for gaming and typing. They are both very good.

Yeah, it's all subjective anyway. Different people like different switches. It's all just preference.
