$350 assembled and shipped is pretty much in the range of low price for a KMAC.

i know... actually if they are around $400 assembled and shipped i would give it a go.... but i just cant seem to find them.... and i cannot brain Korean.... so dont really know when they start a groupbuy for KMAC and when i found out (mostly people post regarding it) it already ended... cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif

Previously I said Cyntrix probably won't be bringing it in, but well I'm reconsidering it. The board uses cherry stabilizer just like Leopold. There's much slimmer chance for squeaking long keys. The current SRP is RM 249. RM 50 less than the Costar RK9000. Caps are laser engraved ABS with UV coating. Someone please do me a favor to verify tha all the caps are compatible with standard cherry keycaps. biggrin.gif

hmm.... ducky zero..... this one is made in china right? not like the other ducks which are made in taiwan? hmm.gif hmm.gif

Ducky 9008 S2 Special edition. But we are not bringing it in.

However, if you are OK with just 4 MX Green Switches:

Can't imagine how loud green switc gonna make when typing.
Even the space bar sound is very loud already.

brows.gif my space bar ( green switch ) is on metal cap.
sounds a bit diff than plastic cap.

your metal spacebar is aluminium or titanium?

Why la Rosewill. This keyboard has standard mods =.=

You only created one keyboard with non standard mods and I happened to buy it..

Trigger is Costar made, but uses cherry stabilizer.

And KBT ONI/ ONE also laugh.gif
QUOTE(CyntrixTech @ Feb 5 2013, 12:07 PM)
It has always been this way. PSU is another good examples. There are many different factories. Different factories have different grade PSUs as well as different reputation. The list is too long. Rosewill has picked Hipower for their Entry level Hive and Superflower for their high end PSUS. the high end ones are really bad ass. Superflower's PSUs have about 1% or less RMA. On top of that, Rosewill will do 1:1 exchange instead of Superflower's repair warranty. So it saves a lot of trouble sticking to a "rebranded" product than an OEM brand.

wa..... you make me feels like wanna get stuffs from Rosewill already..... their services... thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

it says oem height.
I buy from here http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10....id=20516892129&
it is not anodized though, from pic I tot it is sweat.gif

i havnt put the metal key caps qwer asd to my ducky yet.

From what i tested on black switch, the metal caps hit bottom produce very low "tock" sound.

Later night I try upload after recorded the sound.
*
o.O...... that one, is after polished.... so appear glossy...

i personally prefer sand blasted ones, one of the reason being my sweaty hands.... sweat.gif sweat.gif

your QWER and ASD are zinc or aluminium? im still doubt the use of zinc for keycaps.... sweaty hands... sweaty hands.... doh.gif doh.gif

Edit: it seems that they make it looked abit less glossy, hmm... closer to matte.... hmm.gif

Stuff you need, google translator, paypal, $$$, patience.
Head to KBDMania, register, and they have a sell and buy section.

Post a WTB there, and have to wait. Most of them don't take paypal, so it's a miss sometimes.

now the Sell and Buy section requires 150 points before you are eligible to visit that section.... cry.gif cry.gif

Kai's Poker mkb is cheaper and much easier to get lol.

sharkfin I used a ruler to remove my keycaps. Those keypuller is not really necessary in my opinion.
*
Erm.... prying out using ruler risks of breaking the switch stem or scratching the keycaps.... even the plastic ring type keypuller is not recommended, better invest alittle and get a wire keypuller...
there are many options right now, techkeys ver, WASD ver, filco, leopold, KBC, vortex, MKC's stainless steel (the most classy one in my opinion) and they're around $5-7....

QUOTE(0168257061 @ Feb 6 2013, 12:46 PM)
Poker and 84 different layout already.
That keycool 84 non-led version quite cheap at RMB428 only you get PBT caps and red switch,
also with Fn keys.

that keycool 84 looks more like the old Noppoo Choc mini..... hmm.gif

just wondering what kind of quality is there since  its cheap.

well, most of the reviews around in China forum gives it a positive feedback, guess it is doing well with their QC...

do u guy have any review for POKER PRO aka Poker 2?
i cant find any source from google sad.gif

So far only know some specs and one picture of it from China forum chiphell.com
the layout looks like Noppoo Choc mini... dont really like that, finding replacement keycaps would be a nightmare.... plus, the spacebar looks awfully small... felt awkward...
personally still think the original Poker I is the best.... thumbup.gif

that is Japanese keyboard layout, for switching input method like Roman to Hiragana, and Hiragana to Kanji..

not sure about which key perform which as I never used one before.
keep in mind that is Japanese layout, not the usual US-ANSI layout, but that spacebar is cute lulz

Oh.... so that small key is for that purposes....
but i can imagine getting lots of errors when typing eng..... cannot simply spam spacebar already, need to "look" for spacebar before hitting laugh.gif laugh.gif
