cool was expecting your feedback, will try to find a place where i could try those out (actually didnt know MX silent existed)
but ye after trying a few, i feel like any type of key is much more silent than blues lol


Any non-clicky switch will be more silent than a clicky switch lol.

MX silent I believe are offered only on Corsair keyboards for now. There's only a few keyboards that have MX nature white (Pok3R is the most notable that comes to mind, Ducky might have it on their newer boards).

I'm currently in the same process
looking at same boards
and can't decide if i want browns or reds or even speeds
i think the speeds will be more sensitive than I'd like tho

I love my mx brown.

Best compromise for tactile keys with smooth feel and low click sound.

In my opinion at least

I'm loving the Cooler Master Quickfire XTi for $80 off Amazon via Prime!
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01F8W5PV8/

Cons:
It needed a firmware update, which was quick and easy, or else it would not allow holding a key without switching it on and off fast.
The supplied cable is shorter than I expected, but it's replaceable (not proprietary).
It has no green lights.

Pros:
Macros are easy to make.
It has repeating by pressing FN and F6-F8 to activate and FN and F5 to deactivate, which is great for key mashing situations (struggling in Dead by Daylight because I'm not a good survivor).
The lighting modes are nice! It can allow individual key colors and other nice modes like different ways of highlighting pressed keys and breathing.
No driver or other software is needed once the firmware is updated via a standalone tool.
