For your reference,
thick vs normal

Also I think thick will be using cherry profile because if follow oem profile which is tall,
definitely the thick caps will blocked another one.
*
bro, your thick pbt dyesub is by imsto?

will the thickness in wall and the height affects the space between the keycaps? hmm.gif hmm.gif

I bought from him, the thick grey but blank lah sweat.gif

the thickness in wall already compensated with short height, that's cherry profile (really short if you see it first time)
the space between caps are still remain no worries.
*
haha.... basically only in cherry profile can we get the keycaps in thick.... else, just normal thickness....


conclusion:
thick keycaps -------> cherry profile (lower in height compared to OEM)
thin keycaps ---------> OEM height (normal heights for the likes of FILCO, Ducky, Rosewill, QFR etc)

QUOTE(JohnDiew0107 @ Mar 31 2013, 10:09 PM)
no worry that is Japan layout, US ANSI layout should be around the corner, if INter-Asia is bringing in.

hmm... even if not interested in the wireless, the detachable cable would be a good point too laugh.gif

While Signature Plastic profile is in between the two.
Been ccng for 2 weeks, while the thick pbt resting,
will switch back soon tongue.gif

Btw, if you are interested with it, grey caps with blue words is very nice.
not sure if they still have them.
*
oh yea, forgotten aboutthe SP "hybrid" height... laugh.gif laugh.gif

right now thinking whether to get the GH60 or not (waiting Kai's PM response).... since Poker II news are like so unheard of.... sweat.gif

Can anyone suggest me a good wireless mech keyboard? sad.gif which cherry keys are preferred for gaming?
*
right now there aren't many wireless mech out there, only heard of the china brand with exposed casing (Neo Zelia?) or this Majestouch....., the Filco Minila also wireless? hmm.gif

Back order kbt pure from cyntrix brows.gif

I am not sure whether mine is noted or not.
*
ehh~~~ the short right shift....
is getting to my nerve when i wanna change keycaps later.... doh.gif doh.gif

i prefer the normal Poker layout, coz it's like cutting the main section out of the TKL keyboard, exclusing the function rows, the arrow, home clusters, just the main region.... keycaps all standard layout...
actually the 1.5x modifiers one also not bad... just hard to find replacement, need to get tsangan kits when joining GB or else need to get moogle kits...

What nerve, get tsangan kit lor laugh.gif
I know everyone likes Poker but it's out of production now doh.gif

I also not sure want to join GH60 or not.
Seems like not much difference if you got poker/pure
except that you got "limited edition" of 60%
*
well, GH60 allows you to change layout depending on what plates you choose...
and the PCB supports all if not most of the layouts out there....
and it is fully programmable..... laugh.gif laugh.gif




PS: and yea, it's a GH keyboard.... maybe only one run, if not as lucky as Phantom....

If you want a PURE or a POKER, get them, don't buy GH60 .
Just find a POKER PCB and get a plate. They shouldn't be hard to find.
Get the GH60 because you want the 1.5x spacing. tongue.gif
*
but getting the GH60 with the universal ANSI plate can allow you to change between 1.25x and 1.5x spacings right?

There is only one Taiwan KB manufacturer. Current Ducky boards are Made in Taiwan. Costar makes led keyboards. So like some people suspected, Ducky boards may be Costar manufactured also.

Zero is made in China by a very reputable factory. The quality is really good. You can for to heavy arm to examine the sample we placed there.
*
i see.... why this is a good news IF Costar really makes ducky boards thumbup.gif

Why? Costar is just a manufacturer. They build keyboards based on the specification clients supplied. Although the RK9000 uses the same PCB as Filco, Rosewill/Costar made a mistake with the USB port design and cause a large recall on the keyboards. Filco didn't have this problem because they went with the non detachable cable design.

The RK9200 helios is based on Costar's prototype Dual led board design. They have some problems that they are fixing now, if not we would have already received the goods and delivered the first dual LED mechanical keyboard to the market.
*
well, the QC is what that is important, and reputation builds upon them....
maybe that is why i am always more assured when getting Costar's stuff laugh.gif
QUOTE(kyrmian @ Apr 1 2013, 06:24 AM)
Is Kai around? I want to ask if he could build my phantom sad.gif

i also wanted to ask him about the GH60..... if he can help to assemble, then thinking of getting it...

you not getting GH60? hmm.gif

QUOTE(Ireferno @ Apr 1 2013, 10:47 AM)
Vortex KBT Pure seems really nice but it ain't the one I'm looking for...

Why can't they just make one standard 60% keyboard, with the function keys and no weird changes to the keys
*
haha.... couldnt agree more, you show check the GH60 thread in GH, there are more "bizzare" layout which i just dont understand, but it could just be me.... sweat.gif
so far i like only 2 layout for the 60% boards, one is the Poker with standard US ANSI layout, and the other one being the 1.5x modifiers US ANSI cherry old layout.... laugh.gif

Question. At what price would the Vortex Pure be an irresistible buy? Backlit version

RM 1xx not possible...don't even think about it sweat.gif
*
if the price for backlit Pure is close to RM300 pricetag (which i think is highly unlikely), then i think it would be quite a bargain... hmm.gif hmm.gif

As for mouse I'm using 2 Death Adders. They were working fine after I discovered the root of Razer's problems.

Razer is bad due to the drivers they use. The Synapse 2.0 they use kept making my mouse disconnect and needed to be unplugged and re-plugged.
Worked fine after using an older driver from them.
*
yea... dont really like "online cloud drivers".... they should just make the driver offline and then allocate some memory in the mice for settings would already suffice.... no need all those "bring your settings where ever you go etc"

AWWWW YEEEAAAAA!!!!! POKER 2!!!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE(CyntrixTech @ Apr 3 2013, 01:07 AM)
They have diverted production to Poker 2, not clue if Pure will still be available. You can tentatively consider it EOL. No pricing. LED probably RM 309-329

this one is for Pure or Poker 2? hmm.gif
