@Emera If you don't mind the 1980's look, the IBM Model M actually feels incredible to type on FWIR and they go relatively cheap on eBay. I use a Corsair Vengeance K70 with MX Reds, they feel great to type on. The tactile response isn't as prominent as Blues, but they're very linear/smooth and give just enough resistance and click for me. Quick as well, coming from a hardcore osu! player where I need them to be fast as hell. Would run you $110, would recommend though.

Head over to r/MechanicalKeyboards, they know a lot more than I do as for recommendations.

@Skill Just go to Best Buy or a Microsoft Store and see for yourself, they'll usually have some Razer BlackWidows, Corsairs or SteelSeries mechanicals to try for yourself. Can't really understand it until you try.

Not sure how accurate it is though.

This is a good read:

Which type will let me move around easily by not pressing the key down all the way. Like you barely press and it already recieves the input. Not sure if I explained properly, I know zid uses them.

brown or blue.

Blue has that "click" sound that makes you sure that your button press has been registered.

Brown has a little bit more feedback than the other switches,it's mostly used by gamers.  

Nvm, someone told me it was o-rings to get a faster feedback.

Not necessarily a faster feedback, but they reduce the distance your key travels when you press it down fully. It still registers the key press at the same distance, but if you always seem to bottom-out, it will be a bit easier to move from one key to the next. If I had to describe the comparison to stock keys, the o-ring mod makes it feel more fluid IMO.

O-rings are placed around the switches on a mechanical keyboard. Using them is a personal preference, so they may be terrible for someone but great for someone else. I very much like how they feel.

I asked some friends that use the rings and they said that it wasn't worth buying.

What a dumb comment.

I think for what they offer they aren't worth the price.
Another thing I don't like is that they are marketed as being essential for that comfortable quick response and whatnot but I've tried membrane and mechanical and I think that it's not worth the extra 60-100$ for what they offer. I don't see how it is dumb to consider it to be overpriced or overrated.
Out of experience they are a bit of a gimmick for me.
If I offended you or something I'm sorry because you seem to like them quite a lot
