poison getting worse. lol
my wallet wanna cry now

bought a new 23'' monitor RM578, 1 set black key caps for 7G/6GV2 RM152.
luckily is semester break now

lol no choice la. my house 1 monitor dead. so i give mine to my bro, his to my mom and i get a new 1.
the key cap is a different case. xD

btw, got my noppoo. unboxing now, will post a review ASAP.

actually adding few more $$ to the RM48, u can get some nice PBT caps from KBC already.

btw, here's a short review on the noppoo choc pro 2 i got today:




the box, just like my choc mini, they're teasing other keyboards. lol




what's inside: simple, low profile packing.






the front view, POM key caps and the same printing method like choc mini.
Feels pretty good to type on. Too bad i didnt bring my choc mini along with me, cant show the comparison yet.
There's a dot on the L caps, i wonder why? Not sure if it's for the recognition of J and L.

The Choc Pro logo. This time, they uses CHOC PRO instead of Noppoo. I wonder why?
LED, well it's blue but kinda bright, blinding light just like the 7G i have :S




The back view of the keyboard, 4 rubber feet. stay well on my desk, didn't slip. great.
And look, screws finally. lol
You won't see them on Choc Mini for sure.



Here's the KRO testing result. NKRO under USB just like Choc Mini


Summary:
The build quality for Choc Pro 2 is pretty satisfying. The key caps, key printing, rubber feet (and they're using costar stabilizer) are good.
Weight, as usual. 1 KG above, feels safe.
Lighter force required to press down the keys, fun to type on but you need to bottom down the keys for it to register.
Perform well for FPS, tried on MOH, COD, CS. Not sure if it's because I always bottom down the keys during my gaming session.
NKRO under USB, enjoy playing street fighters, king of fighters etc without any problem with keyboard ghosting.
LED... too bright for me. No harm i guess because nobody would stare at the LED for 37495 hours.
Not recommended for linear switch users. I'll take some time to get used to the feel

u can taobao for it, this 1 is cheaper than the other because of the switch. lol
not bad actually, when i 1st removed the caps i was like oh will i regret of getting this? but then, no. xD
pretty worthed, different feel. I still like linear switch more btw

LOL i see, wont affect my typing anyway. but look at the bright side, when i put my hand on that section i can feel that "oh ok, so this is J and this is L".

Noticed the "nub" wasnt on my PLU keyboards. They replaced it with the bump (or what ever you call it) like the one on J and F.
