I think I’m after mechanical switches. I currently use a Corsair strafe non rgb. I just feel I can’t reach the number 1 and 2 keys very well do u actually think I could benefit from buying a different keyboard and be able to reach those numbers easier.
That's definitely mechanical keyboard.
Likely with MX Red or then Brown.
There's little resistance when you start pushing key down and needed force increases linearly the deeper you press key, right?
If there's little resistance in start but then higher force needing bump before key press is registered that's MX Brown...
Unless it has clear "clicking" sound no matter how softly you press key.
In which case it would be MX Retro alias Blue.
Cherry MX keyboards have standardized key caps so I don't think you'll find any difference between distance of keys.
Also Romer-G seems to use same size key caps.
Distance from lowest row to number row is pretty much same in Logitech G810 as in G710+, though F-key row is little bit closer.
Likely most keyboards use basically same key cap size/key spacing.
Maybe some laptop style scissor switch keyboards might have denser key spacing.
Though from comparing measurements that Cougar Vantar doesn't have any denser spacing/smaller key caps.
