It looks like a nerdy greasy gamer keyboard
They're a new breed of switches Razer calls opto-mechanical. Mechanical because these are

All said and done
The RAZER Huntsman Elite is an excellent gaming keyboard in terms of both quality and functionality. You also get a wealth of features via its Synapse 3 software
