oh.... thanks for the info zongeva!!!

yea, agreed.... that is why i only buy keyboards with "standard" layout, or "majority layout" XD
the most i will go to are those with 1.5x modifiers, which are still ok and not as hard or awkward to find as those "random" stems or "random" lengths....

If you're interested in something then maybe we can tumpang together.

Wonder if there's anyone selling a set for RK9100. Just need the modifier kit

cyntrixtech distro of rosewill. go kacau him where to buy keycaps for his rosewills.

Yo bro! Where do I get modifiers for my RK9100?

^I have not seen any other keycap designs by Rosewill since the RK9000 is super standard, which is unfortunate for the RK9100.

By the way, you guys know Rosewill makes a ton of other things too? Rosewill Blender anyone?

Will it blend their own rosewill keyboard ?

yup go goyang them cyntrixtech but i bet they are using RK9000 instead of 9100

I dont think we can help you with backlit keyboard keycaps eh. I have already asked Rosewill if we can just OEM a ton of keycaps from the factory in different grades and colors and the answer was "no". I am not sure why so because their orders for keyboards are in the thousands with factory and should be easy to get factory to make a few more.

Rosewill is owned by Newegg. What do Newegg do when there's too much capital? You OEM every single thing in the market to diversify:
http://www.newegg.com/Rosewill/BrandStore/...77?Tpk=rosewill

Look at the list. Sadly not everything is good. And even if those that are good may have poor reviews on Newegg. The problem is that they are the OEM and the sell the very first batch out on their own sales channel. Feedbacks are then left and they further improvise the products. The sad part is that they never/seldom discontinue the first batch SKU and rename it to second batch SKU in order to refresh their rating.

That's why people who are reliant on these reviews still think the USB connector problem exists on the RK9000. Rosewill replaced all 200-300 of the problematic RK9000 without a single penny for our partners. That's the kind of customer service you get

Mind explaining why? You don't fancy the tactile feedback when the key is pressed?

Lol, i like tactile feeling that is why die die i blue switch lover. But when you try brown its like a lil or no tactile and then not as good as red . so its like 50:50 which does not make up well for me lol, Just my opinion la. Anyway go try brown switch and let me know your opinion (:

guess you, me, zongeva and cyntrix all have same preference

i also liked blue for typing and after trying them (blue, red, brown and black), i felt red would be the only other switch i would buy other than blue.... unless i have chance to test out other exotic switches like clears, grey or green.

For the lacked of better word - half @ssed. Nooo...I said it

But from a business perspective, it is the best selling switch of all time. I think there's probably too much influence from the net or something.

Blue = The de facto typist switch. Noisy, clicky, no rough friction when being depressed

Red/Black = The de facto gaming/silent switch. Preference really depends on how phat your finger is. Red is good but if you have heavier fingers black would make a better choice. But I guess in Asia red sells better. In USA, I'd even go as far as saying that in TEXAS, black would sell better.

I think most people will only come to this conclusion if you have more than 1 keyboards. If not, brown does make a good compromise. But TBH, if I had to compromise, I'd take red and deal with more typos.

Who likes black here btw ?
Seems black is the least favour among here.

after trying myself on blacks, boy it felt so heavy, just after typing a few sentences already felt kind of tired of pressing, however i think if gaming maybe good as you mostly rest your fingers on selected keys... unless you chat alot in-game

Recommendation for a cheap value + high durability mech keyboard.
-Price if can as cheap as possible (on very tight budget) :<
-Best is MX blue, others i also wont really mind
doesnt necessary have to be those fancy fancy keyboard with backlit

Suggestions pls shifus ty ty

If you don't like Browns and feel that Blacks are too heavy for your liking then theoretically you won't like Clears, Greys or Greens as Browns = Clears/Greys but stiffer where Greys are stiffer than Clears and Greens are a stiffer Blues.

Rosewill RK9000. They do come with Blues and still have a promo price of RM249 which you can get at Heavy Arm SS15.

Last day to get the Rosewill RK9000 MX Blue for RM 249. Tomorrow goes back to RM 299 but it's still the best value for money no nonsense mechanical keyboard you can find.

Can post a picture of the modifiers of your RK9100?
From the pictures that I can find over the net, it seems to be just the same as the RK9000, or am I wrong?

You need to try Ergo Clears/ Clears 62g, Clears 65g.
That's what I thought when i tried browns.

Blacks are bad lol, sometimes can feel the scratchyness of the black switch.
That is due to the spring scratching the stem.
While being the least favourite among here, it is one of the smoothest switches if the vintage blacks are used.

ROSEWILL RK9000 REVIEW OPPORTUNITY


We're hoping to gather some senior members in reviewing the RK9000. It's probably nothing new for you folks but many have no idea what exactly and why exactly this keyboard rocks. We are going to start with a campaign for some selected members to review the keyboards. Once the reviews are submitted, you have to pass the keyboard to the next person. At the end of the day, we will do a random pick (using "the hat") and one of the reviewers will be able to keep the keyboard free of charge.

We are considering sending all keyboards in for review - MX RED, MX BLUE, MX BLACK (MX BROWN not available until Late February)

Whoever wants in. Quote and add your name here and we will contact you for more details

PS: Everybody who reviewed professionally will be given a small gift as a small gesture of appreciation
