tiada lui aa brada.. plus cex also no stock on filco d~ moderno uber expensive~ might as well~ RM330 for dk

just asking incase my keycaps does wear out one day, if i plan to use it THAT long and if i decided not to go ahead with ducky dragon year


bwus seems more like a rebadge from either one of those xarmors, rather than something from ione itself

CM Storm with brown switch then?

May be Razer are the one who prepare the blue-print for iOne to manufacture?

really? then that i'm not sure but i'm talking about the stealth edition instead of the normal BWU. the 6kro feature in the stealth is enough to make me think its something different from the normal BWU. but anyway they're still from ione.....jz hope they're from diff OEMs.

one think i like about all these gaming brands mech keyboard is the extra features they offer like the usb ports and audio ports, hope upcoming backlid kbs have these

Leopold FC500R(fullsize): Oddity in term of the spacebar. Keycool's should be similar and compatible.
Ducky: Quite normal and standardized like most other modern board. Just that the windowed keycaps can be hard to found sometimes.
Filco: Should be the most common standard out there. Almost all aftermart keycaps should fit on it.
Cherry: Too fragmentised. The most common issue found with their modern board(3xxx series, including the 3800) is the strange stem placement on "Caps lock". Also do note that Cherry keycaps are lower(shorter) than most modern brands(Ducky and Filco). It should not be too bothersome if you swap off fullset with same height.
Razer/Xarmor/Other iOne board: The bottom row(Ctrl, Alt, Spacebar...) are using the less common layout, which made it hard to find replacement for the whole bottom row...
SS7G/6GV2/Zowie Celeritas: The "big-ass" Enter, short backspace/right Shift are going to be the parts that made your life hard... Also, the spacebar is using a different standard with Filco and Ducky. Should be similar to the one find on Leopold FC200R(not too sure, need confirmation).

Added on March 12, 2012, 6:36 pmThe more features it offer, the higher the chance of the keyboard will go down...

BTW, to verify the bolded statement. Any white rat want to open up a Stealth Razer BWU for comparison purpose?

i dun mind giving out my BWUS for research purpose as long it returns into one piece

over branded..

any keycaps that would last long for my 6gv2? i notice that my white lettering turning bit greyish how to preserve it? clean? tape it?

This is your best fren then.

i dun understand what is that, anyways.. ducky kb arent that bad right? lol asking the obvious question

3 possible solution:
1st: Change to otaku(blank with no printing keycaps), then it will had nothing to be worn out.
2nd: Ready to pay for the price of around another 6GV2 and go surf in GeekHack/Taobao for fullset dye-sub thick PBT/DS replacement keycaps. It should last forever.
3rd: Go dig in taobao for those engraved but non-printed/side printed keycaps. There will also be nothing to be worn out...

Added on March 12, 2012, 6:55 pmThat is carbon fiber, AKA sticker to cover those thing you dislike...
10xx series once are quite sucky, thus giving Ducky the Ducky Sucky reputation in GH...
Some of us here(when in the 1st thread, not sure if still here...) had the 10xx series and is bearable with the not impressive built quality.

The problem now is that why don't you add like another RM100(roti+maggi for a week? ) to get a better piece of KB?

Ducky 9xxx series are the more refined series.

btw whats taobao

Not a owner, can't say too much bout it.
Features wise it should be OK, with USB NKRO, multimedia keys, detachable wires and so on.

It's called worn out. You rub a thing everyday and it will eventually worn out(and become shiny).
The solution to worn out are:
1. Sandpaper/blasting it after it worn
2. Using PBT keycaps as it is more worn resistant to ABS
3. Using Metal keycaps, it should probably took forever to worn out...

Added on March 12, 2012, 7:08 pmheavyarm suggesting me to take shining series, maybe I'll go with white.. looks more like the biasa kb

This post has been edited by noobandroid: Mar 12 2012, 07:08 PM

Not all ducky come with PBT keycaps, ask Storm88 for which model had it.

LOL, first say want Filco Camo, then say cut budget go Ducky 10xx, then say add another bit to G2, now want add more to Shine? Trolol...
Whatever it is, choose the one you like. So that it worth the money spent.

Durability wise I will definitely choose G2 with PBT.
PBT sure pawn coated ABS kao kao...
