QUOTE(zongeva @ Oct 22 2012, 12:09 AM) RM330 for Shine 1 is a good buy. Indeed. The first Ducky Shine was hellaexpensive too, I remember paying RM480 for the red switch, only sold it for 360 after 3 months because the retail price dropped to 430  r

QUOTE(kahkiat @ Nov 7 2012, 10:35 PM) I am looking for a Cherry MX Blue switches mechanical keyboard, with backlit, extra macro keys or USB ports are optional...My primary use for the keyboard is hardcore gaming. Is there any recommendation? My budget is below RM450. Backlight? Ducky Shine 2 or 1, can try Corsair K60, but it is not fully mechanical (number pads are rubber domes). I think Ducky Shine would be the best bet for backlit keyboards.

So many new products from Ducky, poison liaoo.  Still don't know why Ducky decided not to use PBT for the full sized G2 Pro, unlike the G2. Always like PBT caps

QUOTE(kennethchang @ Nov 15 2012, 01:21 PM) thank's yr advise ,btw what is the price ?Which model ? You should know that Mech keyboards comes with a variety of switches based on colors right? You should probably test all of them first, if possible. Since you are new to this range, what others recommend to you may not suit your taste. Read through the switch guide on the first page and roughly choose those characteristics that you prefer in a switch, from there only you decide which keyboard you want to buy. It's important that you feel your keyboard first, don't regret later. Mech keyboards are not like rubber domes where most of them feels the same

QUOTE(rurushu @ Nov 18 2012, 09:47 PM) @G_ken: for built quality, not very sure of that, but in terms of value, the price of the K90 doesnt justifies, especially here in malaysia with its notorious pricetag, imagine you paying almost same amount as the Shine 2, but you do not get full mechanical + no full backlit. thanks for the heads up bro zongeva  Edit: oh yea, you mentioned that it is being reviewed as "the better" gaming mech? for me, if you want a "better" gaming mech, i think SS 6Gv2 or 7G is more eligible for the title, although they only have black switch ( i heard that 6Gv2 got reds, not sure about that) ....  Yup, there is a red switch edition for 6Hv2. Dreamhack edition if I'm not mistaken. Indeed the 6G is very well built, solid and sturdy, the lack of switch choices are one of the major turnoffs. I still like my Ducky G2, compared to Ducky Shine. PBT caps are a bonus

QUOTE(kellefe @ Dec 20 2012, 10:56 PM) Guys, just wonder MX Brown is popular to recommend among all the switch for gaming. Is MX blue ok for gaming ? Tried few time kinda like the tactile feel , but Brown seems tactile feel are too soft... Read several review , MX Blue does nt really have double tapping issue though... What u guys say ? Btw , can u guys recommend me any place to buy key cap ? I just need several special key cap only , like window key, volume key etc or some special key cap like watermelon ... Haha... One should have a personal bond with the keys before they buy. Lol. If you can tahan Blue's click clack sound, then you should get one. Actually all switches are based on personal feel, get the one you like the most. For me, its brown. Love at first sight ")
