outemu blue vs purple switches for both gaming and typing

[iknownothing]

buying a mech keyboard im choosing between k551 and k550, i game and type alot. im going for the k550 since its has 12 G keys which are programable but theyre purple which i heard was not as good for both gaming and typing as the blue switches.

The K550 has some kind of proprietary switches apparently, so I'm not sure how comparable is the purple switch in the keyboard to the outemu purple switch. From what I've seen it seems like the switch lacks a tactile bump and doesn't make noisy click, therefore the Outemu Blue's are kind of opposite to the purple, since the blue's does have a tactile bump and a loud click.
