In the interest of others who may have this question and come across this thread looking for answers I think people should consider the type of keyboard that would best suit them.
There often is NOT a huge difference between standard and gaming accessories, it's often times a marketing gimmick. Such as a 'gaming' pc case or all the membrane switch 'gaming' keyboards available.
To say standard keyboard buttons break after just months is flat out wrong. I've been using a cheap MS keyboard for over 4yrs now every day for standard typing tasks as well as gaming. Not a single key has 'broke'. How much force is used doesn't indicate whether you're a gamer or not, that's a personal habit/issue. Pressing a key harder doesn't make it work better.
Colors and lighting effects to have 'fun' with the keyboard has zip to do with gaming. That's more of the gimmicky features. Whether your keys glow or not doesn't help you shoot foes in a game any faster. Some lighting effects can help with low light situations, yes. Or you can just turn the light on in the room, I find that tends to work pretty well also.
Which color of cherry MX switch is 'best' is subjective to the user, varying MX colors have different properties from tactile feedback to force required to activate to the audible feedback or "click". Mechanical keyboards do have more durable switches (typically) than inexpensive dome style membrane keys but not all are 'gaming' boards. Consider daskeyboard, ducky shine or wasd which are all high quality mechanical keyboards that aren't exclusively gaming boards.
Cm's storm octane, tt esports challenger, cm's devastator II, razer's deathstalker, corsair's gaming k30, the list goes on. All 'gaming' keyboards that use membrane key switches.
