The Gateron G Pro that come on the Q8 are actually pretty decent. The amount that Keychron charges to get switches and keycaps compared to barebones isn't that much. Get the G Pro Reds and see what you think. You'll have a set of keycaps that show the stock key mappings as well then. If you want to try tactile switches, you could always add on G Pro Browns for about $20-$25 if you're ordering from Keychron.
