Yes Yes 100 times yes.
Depending on the games you play will depend on which switch you want. I Type alot and play MMO's that require typing to communicate so I went blue switch. If you don't type alot or play faster games you'd probably want brown switch keyboards.
Everything about using them just feels smoother and satisfying.
Yes the Cherry MX switch is the type of switch that comes in the color's I indicated. I wouldn't recommend anything else and be careful of Mechanical Keyboards that aren't specifically that type. Sorry for just saying the color, people usually mean the Cherry MX just don't type it out. But I guess it's how some companies confuse people.
Cherry MX black and red switches are the least "Clicky"
Cherry MX blue switches are the "Clickiest"
Cherry MX brown switches are the "Mid Level Clicky"

I prefer my clicks to be the clickiest which is why I went Blue, but alot of gamers like the all around feel of the Browns. As a side note if noise is an issue be aware that the clickier they are the louder they are as well.
I've looked at the WASD website and see the Cherry MX with noise dampening would
be good. I share my gaming room with the wife and don't want to drive her to
nuts with a lot of loud clacking.
What does anyone think of noise dampening setups?
Thanks for the info.

Well... Technically speaking you'll have tactile feedback from any keyboard when you bottom out. However, if we are talking about the actual Cherry MX Brown key switch mechanism then this is incorrect; the tactile point is located at the half travel point of the key (2mm).MX Brown is the best mid-balance as it has no clicky, but tactile feel when you bottom out the key.
Soft linear (no click or tactile bump): red
Hard linear: black
Soft/moderate tactile bump: brown
Moderate/hard tactile bump: clear
Soft/moderate click: blue
Moderate/hard click: green

Red if you want a membrane-like feel with the durability and reliability of mechanical switches. *common
Black if you want a membrane-like feel and tend to "hover/rest" your fingers on the keys.
Brown if you want some physical feedback when you press a key. *common
Clear if you want physical feedback with a firmer key press (very hard to find these).
Blue if you want a physical and audible feedback. *common
Green if you want the physical and audible feedback with a firmer key press.
