I wanted to upgrade from my razer cyclosa membrane keyboard.

I founds in stores in my city these keyboards (the prices are in Argentinian pesos)

Sades-K10-$1700-http://www.sades.cc/product/?103_550.html

 CoolerMaster-Quickfire TK(brown or blue switches)-$2300- http://www.coolermaster.com/peripheral/keyboards/quickfiretk/

ThermalTake-Poseidon Z(brown variant)-$2340-http://www.ttesports.com/Keyboard/201/POSEIDON_Z_RGB_Brown_Switch_Edition_/productPage.htm?a=a&g=ftr#.WHBS8xvhCUk

 Razer-Blackwidow X ultimate-$2400-http://www.razerzone.com/gaming-keyboards-keypads/razer-blackwidow-x-ultimate

 What do you guys think? What's the best option here?

Case: NZXT phantom CPU:I5-4460 GPU:MSI-GTX1070 Gaming X RAM:2x4Gb-DDR3-HyperX fury MOBO:Asus Z97-P HDD:Toshiba 1Tb 7200rpm PSU:Sentey650W

A Razer cyclosa (membrane switches). Also, I do like the RGB thing, but I'd rather go with a higher quality if it's the case

Have you looked into some of Logitech's offerings? Is the G710 or G710+ available? G910?

 I bought a sades headset and it was uncomfortable, shitty sound quality and it died in a week. so I'd stay away. 

 

also

Not sure what Thermaltake keyboards are like, but Razer doesnt use Cherry MX anymore.

Personal build >  New-ish AMD main gaming setup           

   PLEASE QUOTE OR @ ME FOR A RESPONSE xD

Whaaaaat? The Blackwidow X is more expensive then MY G810 in the US. How much is the G710+ in Argentina?

Nothing really makes much sense here, that's why I passed the prices in pesos
