The title kind of says it all. I'm looking for the clickiest mechanical keyboard there is. I do love the clicky noise that comes from those keys. As far as I understand Blue are the clickiest and are also the most common. I only know very little about each colour which is why I'm asking here.

Two questions:

1. What is the clickiest mechanical keyboard?
2. The clickest mechanical keyboard for a less expensive price?

The second one is just incase I decide to spend less on a keyboard. Although I probably won't.

Thanks!

Blue = clicky and tactile [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Red= Linear (not clicky or tactile) [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Brown = Non clicky but tactile feel [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Thanks man.

EDIT: My price range is around 100 GBP (I'm in Scotland). I would welcome any cheaper alternatives that are worth the money and have the same nice loud click.

Any keyboard that uses MX blues or Greens...

The switches will be the same so just look for the cheapest with Greens or Blues.

If you want suggestions, let us know our currency and price range.

EDIT: I have and use this daily, it gives a very satisfying click and is built like a tank...

If you want something which will last you forever get a Filco one but they are at the top end of your budget,

Some other suggestions would be CM storm keyboards they're pretty good and not as expensive.

I'd stay away from the RGB keyboards etc.

You want buckling springs for maximum click. Unicomp makes modern IBM Model Ms if you don't want a keyboard that's 20+ years old (not that Model Ms age badly).
