K70 RGB RAPIDFIRE Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

Hello, as the title says I am looking for a mechanical keyboard for gaming (esp rhythm games). Here's what my criterias would be (explanations after) : * Reliable (no random input dropping) * Lowest latency possible * Either : * Low "max travel distance" switches (<=3.4mm) * Hot-swappable switches * Budget : I'd prefer not going over 200€ (could go up to 300€ for a perfect keyboard that would satisfy all my needs) * Size : I'd perfer a size where the arrow keys are separated from the keyboard (100% or TKL) but anything else is not a deal breaker * Wired * RGB : I don't care about any backlighting, especially if this could increase the response time/latency of the keyboard * Layout : I don't care * Keycaps : I don't care As I play rhythm games, reliability is really important for me. I've had quite a few keyboards over the years and some of them were unusable because they didn't register my presses (even 99.99% reliable means I'd drop an input every 30 mins which is unacceptable). For "lowest latency possible" I'm not asking for a 8kHz polling rate. It's mostly about how responsive the keyboard is. The only test I can perform is flicking a key as fast as I can, and seeing how long it takes between the down input and the up input. My older keyboards (that feel slow now) showed about 30ms of average response time in this test, while the two most recent keyboards I've owned (corsair k70 mx speed, wooting two HE) have about 5-8ms. My third most important criteria is what makes my search hard. With my playstyle I need to fully press the key to the bottom to finish my input, and any millimeter less of travel time is time gained which is really important for speed purpose. The corsair k70 mx speed I had was the best keyboard I've owned in that area, it combined high reliablity and low latency, while having 3.4mm max travel switches. Sadly it's not available anymore (they've discontinued the mx switches for their own brand now). The wooting two HE is also a great keyboard, but while it's possible to change the actuation point and add rapid trigger, it doesn't change that I have to fully press the whole 4mm of the switch. That's why I'm asking for either a keyboard with a reputable low max travel distance switch, or a board that would allow for hot-swappable switches so that I could try finding what is the best for me in that area. I also don't mind going for a low profile keyboard if the switches are hot-swappable (only if this doesn't increase the perceived latency). Anything less is self explanatory I think. Thank you for reading this, feel free to ask any question, redirect me to any place where I could look for recommendations if this is too specific for this subreddit. I'd also love for recommendations for low travel distance switches.

I’m still rocking an old K70 Rapidfire and I love it

Currently have a logitch 815 low profile and its been good/fine but im looking for something new. ive had k70s and dont want another needs wired must be full keyboard with 10key left side programable macro keys pass through use on keyboard thanks for any help in advance

for casual gaming, the Corsair K70 series is a good pick The wireless version lets you move around, but if you don't mind wired, the K70 core is super responsive and well-built. The Razer Ornata V3 is okay too, but it's a membrane hybrid, so it might not feel as nice for gaming compared to mechanical ones. Check out keyboardyeti for a quick comparison of these; their guide could help you figure out which one works for you.
