Recomendations for a mechanical keyboard for gaming?

[grrsona]

Looking for recommendations like the title says. Mostly FPS stuff, trying to stay under $100, is back light possible for that price range, while remaining a reliable keyboard.
This looks solid:

However I know razor doesnt use the regular Cherry MX Red, how does this keyboard compare to that?

I just got a corsair luxe mechanical rgb 10keyless at best buy for about that. I like that it actually uses cherrymx red switches not razer greens.

I have a blackwidow ultimate stealth 2014 that I really like that has the razer green switches, and I have a Corsair strafe that I just got a month ago with cherry mx red switches and honestly they don't feel much different to me. The strafe is a nice keyboard and I picked it up for 79.99 on sale on Amazon. It has red backlighting, the rgb version was more than 100 i think though.

I like the strafe, however this is cheap, how does it compare?

I haven't seen the 2016 version but the 2014 had terrific build quality with braided cables. The strafe seems to be built well just not as solid as the razer. The razer has dedicated macro buttons too which the strafe doesn't have.

That strafe will only do green. I can do all kinds of custom led designs with the corsair

The strafe is red, the razer is green. Yeah the Lux looks great, I'm just not a fan of ten keyless keyboards because I enter alot of numbers.
