Looking for a cherry mx blue keyboard

[SPG]

So in light of me getting a new job, I'm going on one massive upgrade spree just to get it all out of my system now, and with this, I want a new keyboard. After A LOT of research I decided I want to get a blue mechanical switch being how I type far more than when I game, and even then I actually like the clicking noise (played a video in the background on loop for a few hours to make sure I didn't get annoyed by the sound. yes, I'm crazy)

So with this, here are a few things I'd like you'd to keep in mind for suggestions:

• Must have a wrist rest, or recommend one that I can attach to the keyboard
• Must have a back light that is green, or rgb (I type a lot at night, and I have a bad habit at looking down from time to time when I miss place my fingers)
• Nothing absurdly expensive, I already feel as though spending $100+ for a keyboard is insane, so nothing over $200

I feel that those are some pretty simple requirements, if you have any questions so you guys can help me let me know, and thank you in advance!

That's doesnt even fit with his requirements

- It's not backlit

- It's not even a mechanical keyboard

-There's no wrist rest (I think)

A) I think it's a troll.

B. It is backlit, all keys are the same colour but you have 16.8 million colors. (Used to own one)

C) It does have a wristrest

Forgot it was even backlit, last time I saw one was last year :mellow:  

Plus I don't really know if it has a wrist rest

That keyboard was the thing back then because of an LCD display

I found some old ones in a near by store

[SPG]

so far the k95 looks like my best option, its exactly what I'm looking for, sadly it looks like it will a pain in the neck finding it new (I don't like buying used products and I dont really see it on ebay either)
anything similar to that seems like it would be fantastic.

Sadly for you, the K95 RGB Blue Switch has been discontinued by Corsair because of a lack of sales, the only people who ever got it were the Amazon Pre-orders

sadly well aware of that, found the froum post on it lol.

So far my best option (unless i want to look REALLY hard) is the ducky keyboard, is there any wrist wrest that I can just attach to it? Such a shame finding a blue switch for a keyboard I like is hard, I thought blue was one of the most common, guess its getting ran out by brown and red lol

[nicholaswillems]

A ducky shine (3 or 4) with a wrist pad like this: http://www.amazon.com/Grifiti-Standard-Keyboards-Mechanical-Materials/dp/B004D8PYE2

 

I really recommend ducky, very sturdy keyboards.

The Razer Green switch is very much like the MX Blue, just that it is a bit heavier, even though Razer claims that it is the same (50g). If you are interested, the Razer Blackwidow Ultimate will be your best choice as it has a vibrant green backlight and is well constructed. If you need a wristrest, I suggest getting an external one such as the 3M one. If you want a real MX Blue keyboard, I suggest the Ducky Shine 3/4 or the K70 RGB MX Blue (if you can find it).
External Wrist Rests:

The black widow ultimate looks very similar to the k95/k70 minus the long wrist rest, can anyone vouch for those keys? or the keyboard in general? razr always seems hit or miss with what they make from my understanding.
