The CK550 would get my vote. RGB, aluminium top plate and you can get it in Blue (or Brown or Red) switches. I do have to mention it's Gateron and not Cherry MX switches, but I am of the opinion that Gateron Blues are better than Cherry MX Blues.

 

I haven't seen a review of this board yet (As it is not out yet), but on paper it looks to be a great board.

I’ve looked at the HyperX Alloy FPS and it could be my choice since it looks very solid

I agree, take a look at the Aukey, my brother recently got it and is amazing for the price.

Only downside is that it is VERY noisy
