Looking for a new keyboard

The keyboard I've been using has been acting up recently (might have had something to do with some spilled iced tea... woops) and I'm looking into getting a good replacement. I've been looking at a razer deathstalker (specifically the ultimate looks really cool but I don't think I really want to spend that much on a keyboard). I was hoping you guys could give me some other suggestions and things to look into. I'm not really fan of loud clicky keyboards and I don't play very many MMOs so I don't need (but it cant hurt to have) a bunch of macro and function keys.

I'm using the Corsair K70 from their Vengeance line of keyboards. The K70's more for FPS players from their description. Couldn't be happier with it. I've had it less than a year but absolutely no problems with it. It is a mechanical keyboard so there is the clacking but you can get Cherry Switches that don't have as noticeable as a click.
I used this guide

That being said it is between $100-$130 to get. However, it's an investment and when it comes to computer equipment I prefer quality rather than having to keep buying stuff.
Things like Keyboards/mice are tough to recommend since experiences differ from person to person. All I can say is I really enjoy my keyboard and Corsair's a reputable company

You could wait for the new Corsair RBG keyboard to come out, it shouldn't be to long before it gets released.
I my self have a Logitech G710+ and im very happy about my keyboard, you can't get any mechanical keyboards that don't sound clicky really, some switches makes more noises than the others.

I'd give you advice if I wasn't using my laptop's inbuilt keyboard...
