I've returned...

So I've decided to hold off and do some more research on mechanical keyboards before I buy one. I originally bought a Corsair Strafe, and It turned out that I hated the Cherry MX Red Switches, as well as the fact that i hated that I dropped 120$ CDN (Our prices suck, man) on a keyboard.

As of right now, I'm looking for something with blue switches (tested it out in store) that's 120CDN or less. Here are my candidates; feel free to bash them/set me straight. I'm probably not going to buy anything for a little while:

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B01ITE941Y/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB&psc=1 (The most expensive I'm willing to go, and not quite TKL (strangely it's even more expensive to find this board in a smaller version?))

Yikes.)

I posted the last few together because I think that they're the same board from different companies. I like their cheapness, but I'm concerned about quality and I don't really like the forced RGB (from what I know you can't change the backlighting into something neutral/the same colour across the board).

For reference I have a cooler Master devastator II keyboard combo right now. Thanks a lot if anyone can help me. And sorry if I seem annoying, this Mechanical Keyboard journey is giving me a huge headache.

EDIT: Also someone on kijiji is trying to sell me a Cooler Master Quickfire with Blue Switches for 80$ by tomorrow...
