Best mechanical/Cherry MX Keyboard

All mechanical keyboards are the same.  You just get different features.  I like the Coolermaster Storm lineup.  Tenkeyless, don't need backlight, NKRO, cheap, works.  They're also modable (paintable) and you can change the switches if you have desoldering tools.  I made a custom version with golden yellow paint, and Cherry MX white switches, and gray PBT keycaps.  Good keyboard.

Personally I'd go with the Corsair K65 but if tenkeyless isn't your thing I'd recommend something from Coolermaster's lineup.

Das Keyboard 4. Best feeling keyboard ever. If you type a lot you'll love it even more, but it's still perfect for gaming.

For $120 on amazon you can get the one I have, cherry mx brown switches and led backlighting. It is the best keyboard for the price. Aluminium keyboard, braided cable, usb passthrough, seriously it's awesome. Corsair K70
