In the coming months, July - September, Corsair is coming out with its new RGB line of Mechanical Keyboards, they have everything that you are looking for in a keyboard, and at less than $200.

 my other  question is : is it possible to remove the switches them selfs???   Eg. say i want to make my W.A.S.D keys feel really heavy or to be louder. is that a possibility ?

 

I saw something in the Anand K70 review that looked like the ability to replace the WASD keys with plain / colored ones.

 

Ease of replacement probably depends on the actual implementation of Cherry MX that the manufacturer decided to use. I have a feeling that regardless of manufacturing, Corsair probably won't take it back if you've messed with swapping the switches.

 

I would probably just buy the model with switches you like; it's a goddamn $150 keyboard. That's not cheap.
