Another "mechanical keyboard" thread - MX clear edition

[freakdiablo]

Didn't want to thread jack someone elses thread with this, but I've got a challange for the mechanical keyboard enthusiasts.

I started with a Das Keyboard with MX browns, then switched to a Rosewill Apollo (which was a mistake) with MX blues because I wanted a keyboard with backlighting. So far I'm liking the tactile bump of the blues/browns but they both seem a bit weak and I find myself bottoming them out too much when I'm not concentrating.

So I finally grabbed one of those multi MX key testers, and after playing around with it for a while I probably like the clears the most, with the greens a second.

The only problem being once you get away from the common blue/brown/red/black MX keys, keyboard selection drops off a lot.

Any ideas? Backlighting is pretty much a must, built in USB hub and keypad are pluses but I can always add a seperate keypad and USB hub to my desk if needed. Don't need any other extras like mic/headphone inputs, macro keys, or anything like.

Thanks, I'll check them out. Been primarily watching Newegg and Amazon which is why I kept finding red/blue/brown/blacks. Also checked Massdrop earlier but they didn't seem to have any currently up, but I'll check again.
