Which one of these is best, I want Cherry MX Blue and Blue backlighting so which one is better

Quickfire:http://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00A378L4C/?tag=pcp0f-20

Poseidon:http://www.amazon.com/Tt-eSPORTS-Poseidon-Illuminated-KB-PIZ-KLBLUS-01/dp/B00HZE2PJS

The Quickfire's Backlighting doesn't look as pronounced in the Amazon photo, Is that actually what it looks like because it looks much different in the videos that I've seen.
Can someone link to a Picture of the TK
Thanks

Also, what's a good mouse. the one that I'm looking at is the TT esports talonhttp://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826254058&cm_re=Blue_Mouse-_-26-254-058-_-Product

I personally use Quickfire for my daily driver, the key is pretty much the same as any other cherry MX Blue at other keyboard, and the lights is pretty much average, since they tend to not bright enough (In my opinion), I have Corsair K70 RGB as well the light level is about the same, not that bright.
But as for built quality Quickfire is better. Poseidon might have a better lights, but they didn't say anything about the keys, I wonder it's a cherry MX key, and it's about the same price. I suggest you getting the Quickfire, since it's cherry with no compromise quality, and if an average lights is enough for you.....

i don't have those exact specific ones, but i have two CM Quickfires and one Poseidon. i prefer the CM due to the 3 wire exit locations on the underside, but the Poseidon is quieter, smoother, less clacky, and everything feels more rounded on it. price was about the same on both - or at least not drastically different.

the CM certainly feels more robust in build. if i were to club baby seals, i'd grab the CM first.

Yep, the build is awesome, I use both Quickfire and K70 RGB for daily driver and never been wrong with my choices.
But the lights it's only OKAY...

No, I just want to make sure that I'm buying the right Keyboard.
All Of the Amazon Pics look way different than other keyboard pics that I've seen on the Internet.
I'm not lazy, I just want to make sure that I'm buying the right keyboard

Compare it with the picture from the CM website, there's no way it can be wrong.
