Keyboard Upgrade needed!

[Disultory]

Hey guys! I'll try to keep it as short as possible, so here it goes.

 

Im currently looking for a new Keyboard for Max. 100€ (which is ~120USD i guess ).

The Keyboard im using right now is the G110 and its fine. I just feel like upgrading to something new.

 

Problem is, that i had no chance to ever type on a brown/red/black Cherry switch. I typed on a Blue once and its amazing but way too loud.

Since Corsair launched their upgraded K series im thinking of buying a K90 cause prices went down and its like 110€ here, bit over my budget but hey. Its an aluminium backplate. Worth.

I'd like to have 6+ Macro keys, Blue backlight aaand yeeaa... Since its hard to get some Brown switch keyboards here over in Germany i wont even bother. Cherry MX Reds is the only switch thats available here for some reason. 

Would be pretty nice if it would fit this set of Peripherals (http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00DJNS6VU/ref=gno_cart_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3JWKAKR8XB7XF) since i can get it dirt cheap for 130€ and i love the Siberia and i need a new mouse anyhow. 

Thats why i thought of the K90 but i'd like to hear what u guys think.

 

Best Regards

If you liked blues but they are to loud and you like a K90, get the K70s with browns but doesn't have any macros

I'd like to get K70 with browns, but theyre just not available here. Like, nowhere. Cant find them at all. Thanks anyhow

Well I don't think they are available with browns anywhere, you have to preorder them

Would it be any better than the K90 tho, cause i can get the K90 cheaper than the preorder price for the K70 here. I dont mind the partially Membrane Keys, i find it more useful than anything else

 

Thanks dude

Im not sure about locally for you but I would look at CMStorm keyboards. They're really nice. They might have browns

Problem is the red backlighting. I know, it sounds weird but i really want a blue backlight so it fits my system + other peripherals

Ducky shine? Or the k70. Choose which design you like more.

I've ordered the K70 with MX blue switches. Expected to be shipped out by the 23rd at the earliest. Comes in gunmetal grey with blue LEDs.

Besides switches, is there anything wrong with the K90? Cause all of you are like "Yea get the K70 pls." Thanks in advance.

 

And Thanks for ur answers u guys are amazing.

Most people say the K70 because of:

1) Purely mechanical

2) Macro keys aren't really that useful (definitely not in an MMO setting, because you're not going to have time to reach the keys in the heat of the moment), but it can be useful for other things outside of gaming. 

3) It's newer, and comes with more options (key switch choices of MX Red, Blue and Brown; colour/LED combinations).

 

If you want macro keys, get the K90.

If you want the macro keys, but want it to be mechanical, get the K95 (only one colour/LED/key switch option).

If you don't need macro keys, get the silver K70 with MX Red (blue lighting, so basically the K90 without the Macro keys). If you don't like MX Reds, get the K70 with MX Brown or Blue (gunmetal grey, which is closer to black then silver, with blue lighting, so again, essentially the K90 without Macro keys).

I use the Macrokeys on my G110 quite alot, and the K90 is cheaper as the K70 here aswell, so i guess ill just roll with the K90. Thanks guys!
