Hey guys, I am looking for a budget mechanical keyboard with linear switches.
The 2 keyboards I found at my price range are the K65 and Magicforce 68(the Coolermaster rapidfire with red switches is
too expensive for me).
Thing is the Magicforce(which is for me about 30$ cheaper) has Kailh switches while the K65(none rgb) has cherry and
that worries me, I heard people saying they were inconsistant and that the quality control isn't as good, what's your opionion
about the matter and which one would you choose given the choice?
Thanks!
Magicforce 68 vs Corsair K65

I expect to have a Magicforce 68 on my hands in about a week. Will post my impressions. But I went with Gateron Blue switches, not Kaihl

I have a MagicForce 68 with Gat clears. I've heard that Kailh switches are inferior, so you may not want to go that route. It's a nicely built little board and has replaced my Quickfire TK with MX Reds for gaming.
