Keyboard switches are generally up to your own preference, but probably the most common suggestions for osu! Would be Gateron Reds or Cherry MX Reds. As for the keyboards themselves, Cooler Master makes some pretty nice boards, the Master Keys Pro S/M/L for Cherry MX switches and CK550 for gateron switches come to mind.

I will say that in my own opinion (and in many other peoples opinions) that the Gateron switches feel much nicer than the Cherry MX switches (they feel a lot smoother, Cherry switches are infamous for having a pretty scratchy feel).

I am an advocate for any Ducky keyboard.

The keyboard I use and prefer is the corsair strafe with Cherry MX Red switches. It was around $89.99 when I purchased it.

I would recommend to stay away from Corsair boards if you plan for your keyboard to last a long time, especially with heavy usage that osu! Would bring. Corsair is known for having lots of quality issues like switches dying, rgb not working, etc quite quickly.

Magicforce/Qisan keyboards are really solid for their price point, I personally really like the Magicforce 68 but there are other options for more standard layouts

You want a keyboard for osu! exclusively or in general ? It depends very much on how you are going to use it. For osu! i would advise a small keyboard (layout 60-65%) with silver or red switches. Though if you are going to often use it for typing i definitly wouldn't advise silver since it is terrible for dactylo and maybe take a bigger layout too. I personally think that brown switches are a good compromise between performence and dactylo since the not linear phase is when the switch goes up and not when you press it; it feels like the key is telling you "yhea you pressed me right" and it is amazing.

For a 60% with a really incredible price/quality rate the Anne pro 2 mini. It has bluetooth RGB lights neat design a battery etc.

Cherry MX Reds are comfortable.

Been a big fan of Corsair Keyboards. Been using my Corsair STRAFE with Cherry MX Silents for a while, though nowadays, would probably go for the K70 Raidfire, since it is basically a k95 with Cherry MX Speeds, which are pretty nice feeling and have low actuation force. Besides the switches, those keyboards have excellent build quality IMO.

Really though, just get a nice mechanical keyboard with your preference of keys. At the end of the day, it really is all preference and what works best for you :)
