QUOTE(yuktsi14 @ Aug 18 2013, 10:30 PM) both are the same product. Vortex is the company that develops the keyboard, and it was run by KBC members... well, as I know, KBC is some sort of keyboard community IINM.. so, some ppl call it Vortex Poker, some call it KBC Poker..

QUOTE(kaiserreich @ Aug 20 2013, 08:22 AM) Yeah, what he said. I've watched WhiteFireDragon's switch lubing video on Youtube, so it's is not recommended to lube clicky switch huh?Please don't lube clicky switches. More often than not, it's a waste of time. You'll loose the click if you can't apply the lube as thin as possible. At that rate, will you even feel the smoothness? even lubing the side rails or springs? |

QUOTE(justnits @ Aug 21 2013, 09:46 AM) i personally haven't tried thick pbt yet...one of my friend just got his poker 2 yesterday...will go find him one day to try out the poison lol when you own countless keyboards and GB caps, it doesn't matter if it is ABS or PBT anymorebut why i prefer PBT over ABS anytime is due to the fact that PBT is supposedly have way higher durability compared to ABS. it's always a turn offs to see my spacebar having shining effect of the left side (i use left thumb for my spacebar) |

Lurk geekhack and keep looking at it maybe you will find the answer for urself ? btw there is dangwang's blog http://dangwang.wordpress.com/ mostly they are alu case. I like the solidity.

QUOTE(ainuddin @ Aug 22 2013, 12:25 PM) last time a newbie(?) came in and ask pointers, he straight buy $500++ punya custom keyboard. lulz. yeah, particularly my right wrist. Now I can no longer use mouse as it hurts a lot if I do so.y u want it? u got RSI or something? or just wanna try? Switched to track ball and used by left hand. it saddens my that my PC gaming life suddenly came to an end... I wonder if those vertical mouse would do the trick or not. eg: Evoluent vertical mouse / Posturite Penguin anyway, typing on normal mech kb is till OK for me |

QUOTE(mikelanding @ Aug 22 2013, 01:44 PM) I had RSI too. Switch to Kinesis Advantage and trackball mouse save my pc/gaming life. I'm currently using logitech trackman marble. Well, I think this is the only trackball I could find in Malaysia other than M570.I used Ergodox and Kensington Slimblade trackball (sometime Logitech M570). This 2 are best combo for me now. What trackball you using? You should seriously consider Ergodox. Choose a light switch like Red or Clear (Swap the spring to lighter one) I got a Evoluent vertical mouse (Big, Right hand) sitting in the drawer. Not using it because I am totally fine with Trackball now. Also, the OSX driver somehow conflict with 1 of my app. I might need to try it since it got newer/updated version (15 Aug 2013) I'm looking forward to import a Slimblade, but still I miss gaming with a mouse.. |

QUOTE(kyrmian @ Aug 25 2013, 10:02 AM) No.. costar stabs is never best.. wait until you get one, and you want to change keycaps then you know. But it's all up to your preference. other than a pain in the @ss when changing caps, I think costar stabs are pretty good to type on as it doesn't feel as mushy as cherry stabs, especially for MX Blue switchesIf that's the case, seems like bling bling enough for you.
