I have 90 dollars and the k90 has a rebate making it 90 dollars. I have researched alot on other keyboards and they all have one big fault. Not to say the k90 does(not fully mechanical) so the question is should I wait and get the k95, I am tierd of my membrane keyboard, and the k95 will have white leds instead of blue(my rig is blue)(just a bit ocd) and I am going to guess if the past has taught me anything I am going to guess the k95 will have one issue. Does anyone have any opinions?
Depends on how much patience you have since the release date is only set to "this year" as far as my research can tell. It does look like a sweet keyboard for sure.
It uses red switches as far as I can tell. One issue with red switches is that they are very light, so you will probably find yourself accidentaly pressing a key, especially if your hand is naturally resting on WASD. (I tend to press A by accident)
I do want reds as I am a gamer, so I am not sure about waiting, I am very tired of this memrane keyboard
Reds aren't the only type that are good for gamers, many people prefer blacks, blues, or browns for gaming. Aside from that, I would recommend getting the k90.

I know cooler master is going to be coming out with some keyboards with Cherry MX Green switches. Supposedly they're supposed to be stiffer blues, which I kind of want to check out, because I really don't like blues. They don't have enough resistance to them.
If you want, go ahead and get the K90 though. The only keys that aren't mechanical are keys you don't usually use that often anyway like the F buttons and delete, home, etc.
I would love stiffer MX Blues. I love the tactile click, but I really want some more resistance when I type.
Yeah, I've been using clears for about a year and a half now, and I hadn't tried out blues until recently when I was at an electronics store that had a Razer BlackWidow on display. I tried those out, and I tried the reds as well, and I really didn't like either of them. The blues just felt like a membrane keyboard to me....well not exactly like a membrane keyboard, but there was very little resistance to them. They just felt wrong to me. It was like I was typing with air. The reds were stiffer, but they didn't have any tactile feedback (obviously because reds are linear switches) and felt kind of squishy.
I'd love to try out the greens just to see how they feel, because I've definitely gotten used to my Cherry MX Clears, which are basically stiffer browns.
Saitek Cyborg V5-7 is great... Mad Catz bought Saitek so its Mad Catz V5 something...
