I am so torn.

K95 @125 and Shine 3 for 115.

I have heard great things about both.

Have not used either of those, but I would never buy a keyboard without dedicated media keys and at least one bank of macro keys.

Neckbeards will tell you macro keys are useless. The same neckbeards have never owned a keyboard with macro keys.

You definitely sound like a neckbeard.

I'd say go with the K95.

I'm replacing my MaxKeyboard Nighthawk X8 with the K70 (same as K95 expect K95 has Macro keys).

My 2 cents.

I was looking at getting the K70 and ultimately decided on the Ducky Shine 2 (got it on sale).

I'm extremely happy with my decision. However it really depends what you are looking for, I had a G15 with tons of Macro keys and found I barely ever used them and didn't feel I needed them on my next keyboard. There is no question that Ducky makes a better quality keyboard but it won't have all of the bells and whistles of the Corsair.

So if you feel you need Macro keys or dedicated media keys or whatever go Corsair, if you want a super high quality keyboard that just feels amazing to type on, go with the Ducky.
