quality and satisfaction, either Filco, Ducky, Rosewill you cant go wrong.  Rosewill currently only full board, no LED. Filco got full board and tenkey-less (without numberpad) and LED only on certain keys like Caps Lock. Ducky both full and tenkey-less, got all keys LED with bling2 settings. can go heavyarm shop or any shop under CyntrixTech dealership to try different switches to suit your preferences. alternatively in GS, can check noobandroid threads, he is under CyntrixTech too and sells online.

other brands like Vortex Poker can also check noobandroid threads; Keycool, PLU, Noppoo can check taobao.com to purchase.

avoid gaming brands mech keyboard because the keycaps have some different layout, very hard for you to customize them later on when you want to, except certain CM Storm model. can google keyboard layouts to learn more.

for brands like HHKB, Topre, KMAC and other custom builds, prepare rm1.5k before anything else.  brows.gif

also, make sure you are 'healthy' and have cashmedicine to burncure the poison you will get later on in this thread.

Fuuu no enough poison D:

Rosewill i saw one with backlit, RM369 i think

Im quite inclined to the Ducky atm. Due to its design

Casual user wise, any diff between tenkeyless and normal?

if you are a hardcore-die-die-work banker, take full keyboard. else, go tkl. practice a few days, sure will love its space saving. if still emergency needed numpad, can buy numpad seperately. also can mod, change keycaps.  brows.gif

this thread is hazardous. youve been warned.  cool2.gif

Just go TKL, and buy a new numpad, only 50$, leopold brand somemore.
400$ can get you almost everything, just add another 50$ for shipping. otherwise people saw you pay so much, the one who sell you will be smiling all their way to the bank, if you pay more than that.

USD50 for a numpad? >.<

Tenkeyless, full keyboard minus the numpad.

Never use blue before, but I am loving black. I play a lot of FPS on it, it kinda slow down my typing speed though.

QUOTE(lowyatguy @ Jul 7 2013, 12:02 AM)
TKL = Tenkeyless, the keyboard without the numpad portion.

Im a heavy gamer on FPS and I have no issue with blue switches, saw a few SC players are using blue switches for gaming as well.

ahh i see, thanks

hmm.gif most wouldnt recommend Blue for gaming but ive yet to tried it. someday i gotta go test them out before making the purchase

the Ducky Zero Shine 2108S is looking extremely tempting atm laugh.gif

Actually I'm also struggling to pick whether Ducky Zero / Zero Shine / RK9100. I know either one of them are good picks.
In fact I'm still in the middle of picking a mx switch that suits me. Since there's no localc shops carry/bring in mkb to lemme test  sad.gif .

haha exact same model as me laugh.gif guess were both starters in mech keyboards eh?

luckily im quite familiar with Cherry Blue and Brown.. though i have yet to personally test Blue (im looking forward to get Blue)
