aw, another brand that cannot buy locally here. look solid build since it is costar OEM.

Topre KB is ~1K...

Is it really necessary??

Filco camo will arrive today..cant wait to test..

i think kianweic purchase a fullsize keyboard which is much more cheaper than the 87U version. Fullsize keyboard price are around RM800.

These keyboard are one of the highest end keyboard, Keycaps are PBT, Printing method are Dye sublimated, while it uses Capacitive Sensor which is entirely another league.

I am very curious to find out whether Topre Realforce is quieter than Cherry MX brown switch or louder.

I shall find out once I get my keyboard next week.

i never mention CHERRY switch ok
i just saying Yellow switch

Chill bro, he's just trying to clear everyone mind here that yellow switch isn't made by cherry.

They are abit louder from what i heard from users, unless you purchase the "Low Noise" version.

You will have a 'love it' or 'hate it' relationship depending on your preferences (and if you choose to bottom out for the melodious sounds of the THOCK)

Oh ok.

There was only 3 options:

UB Black

UB White

and UB Black (55g) <= is this the silent version?

Nope, For additional knowledge for realforce, Normal Realforce Keyboard standard are multiple weight, ESC is 55g, WERSDFXCV are 45g, and there's 35/30g, and so on. lighter switch for your little finger and harder switch on thumb finger, it's a standard that optimize on human hand, for 55g, it is flat 55g, which means all switch will have the same actuation weight 55g.

Edited : Added Pictures

Below are one of the realforce standard key switch actuation layout.

Thanks for your explanation.

I look forward in receiving my Realforce keyboard next week.

Will post photos accordingly.

For FPS Gaming , which Cherry switches prefered?

Ouh and silent key strokes would be a good feature for me.

i would recommend going for Brown or Red. Since Storm did bring brown and red together, i would suggest you try to feel which one is suitable for you.

too bad no black, i will recommend that 1 if you are heavy finger.

Leopolds got black and red mah
Blacks are generally more silent due to the force that is used to actuate the switch.

not really when first time used, i always btm it and cause it sound like type writer.

now only less noisy since used to it already.

I use my brown in office now, suddenly it felt so noisy in office environment. It's nothing in my house because my speaker volume > my keyboard

We can't recommend you which type of switches suit you man, even though people claims black switch are good for FPS gaming which i don't find it to be true, it all lays down to your preference seriously.

Like me i'm using brown which i find it to be suitable to my taste and suits all my gameplay style, when i borrow it to my teammate in CS who uses SS 6g/7g, they don't like it, and when they borrow me theirs, i don't like it too, lol.
