Magicforce 68 vs Corsair K65

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!

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.
