Go to solution Solved by Swndlr,

K70 even if is more expensive, Ive heard too many horror stories about Razer's "gaming switches" to recommend them to anyone.

Cherry MX is basically the top end and its price point matches it, but its well worth it in the long run.

You tried two different kinds of switches.

On the k95 im assuming you tried reds, and on the razer, i would say they are the greens probably.

The rrrazer greens feel the same as cherry MX blues.

 

Cherry MX as a whole are not "mushy" only some of the switches are found mushy by some (reds and blacks)
