Keyboards

I ordered a Tesoro Phantom, and its a hot swappable keyboard. I've been reading about switches and its all a bit confusing to say the least. At some point I would like to go to a silent switch as the PC is in my living room. I'm pretty sur I need a 3 pin as thats whats in it now. 5pins from what I've read are PC mount, but you can cut 2 of the legs off and plate mount them.
Switches can get almost as expensive as the keyboard itself.
So do you guys know of some good Keyboard modding forums? Most important is where can you buy switches for a reasonable price? Most places don't even seem to have any silent switches. I have to admit keyboards can be pretty cool, never knew there was so much to the switches. Also heard Cherry MX silent reds are a good option, but I'm not sure If I can put them in my Tesoro.
