QUOTE(kyrmian @ Nov 4 2013, 05:17 AM) OH DEAR. CM Storm making Topre switches, compatible with MX keycaps..................... Obamanotbad.jpghttp://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=50380.0 I think..... this is the perfect weapon for me! But with how CM economics strategy has been going lately.. expect these to be very expensive! Now what's left is to use a standard layout... So 2014 will be era of Capacitive switch with Cherry MX keycaps compatibility. http://www.pcwaishe.cn/thread-524282-1-3.html |

QUOTE(aminar @ Nov 4 2013, 09:46 AM) yea. or partially transparent also can. as long the LED go thru. LOL, why you ask others if the keyboard you are using is good or not? btw, 75% race user here. is it a good MKB? i've used blackwidow before. don't really like the blue witch.  Race should be a fine keyboard, with the following downsides, R5 keycaps, extremely pain in ass to find replacement No metal plate, may make the keyboard a little too flimsy. |

QUOTE(lowyatguy @ Nov 4 2013, 10:46 AM) While someone in China posted about the same switch and CM is announcing the prototype? Who is copying who Last time, in few days/weeks after Plum announcing PLUM96, CM come out with CM QF TK. Now, a few days/weeks after Plum announcing their cherry mx keycaps compatible capacitive switch, CM come out with Cherry mx compatible topre switch. Nampak tak permainan mereka? |

QUOTE(lowyatguy @ Nov 4 2013, 01:00 PM) Mayb the same company but just physically located differently, in the end no matter where u buy from, they earned Not really, I mean their ideas are the same (and almost the same time surface to market), but their product different. Plum96 and CM TK different OEM and layout. Plum's capacitive switches also seems to be different from CM's which indeed look like genuine topre. |

To ikbc 104 owners, it seems to have new firmware update to lower the over bright indicator LEDs.

BTW, to all iKBC F-104 users, it is time to update the firmware. Now no more the overkilling bright indicator LEDs + got USB NKRO.
 Pretty easy, files can be get from here. http://pan.baidu.com/s/144OFl#dir/path=%2F...%9B%BA%E4%BB%B6 Basically, what you need is the ikbcblablabla.exe and one of the firmware (I choose the 10.9 one, since that one the most complete). After download them, rename all those files and apps to english or numbers, so no chinese characters, and you can start flashing the firmware. Click the ... and select the bin firmware files, later press download and tada, it is done. |

QUOTE(justnits @ Nov 4 2013, 03:34 PM) [attachmentid=3705046] Yup, 2&3 is enough. All others are older firmwares. If you suka, you can flash flash and see if any different. Who know one day you may miss the extra ultra super bright LED? eh, i understand that the necessary file that u mention is just file #2 and #3 right? what about #4 #5 #7 and #8? what file is that? especially #7 and #8 which contain the word USB in it. |

QUOTE(Sup2Nic @ Nov 4 2013, 03:43 PM) how about lube red? Probably no much different, just less scratchy.  Linear switches like black or red tend to be a little scratchy by default. |

Metal plate nya mana?getting leds from taobao since i just saw some new ice blue leds appearing in some taobao store and i'm preparing to ikat perut for the metal case if it's nice and appealing to my eyes. otherwise, i'll slowly save again for other case while getting the pcb first. and i just found out that blue switches from different brand of boards have varying spring force @.@ varying force from 45-58g just for blue switch alone.

QUOTE(kyosukeX @ Nov 5 2013, 12:05 AM) have finally made the decision to buy my 1st mkb after a long time but can i be a little ambitious to ask all the sifu here? =P would there exist mkb that is/has:- mx reds non-backlit supports NKRO / at least 7 keys simultaneous over USB transparent keycaps or something that is close to it? :S iKBC F-104 is quite near, except that it is DIY-backlitable and no transparent keycaps. Transparent keycaps are pretty rare, mostly come as stock keycaps for some chinaboards. Or may be I break down into several categories for available options, you judge yourself. Recommended: MX reds, fullsize, USB NKRO but no stock transparent keycaps - iKBC F-104 MX reds, tenkeyless, transparent keycaps, USB NKRO - Noppoo Choc Mid Ferrari Red Edition http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a230r...&id=20026663492 http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a230r...&id=22501844337 Aftermart transparent keycaps - KBC red semitransparent keycaps http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a230r...&id=21129375014 Not very recommended: MX reds, Tenkeyless, transparent keycaps and USB NKRO - Flashget G600 http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a230r...ed55e27b&pm_id= MX black, Tenkeyless, transparent keycaps. no USB NKRO - PLU 87 http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a230r...ed55e27b&pm_id= MX black, fullsize, transparent keycaps, no USB NKRO - PLU 3000 http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a230r...ed55e27b&pm_id= Come with stock transparent keycaps, but the keycaps mounting is off standard, which mean hard to replace, and also no USB NKRO - BenQ KX890 http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a230r...ed55e27b&pm_id= p/s: I am not responsible for any incorrect or mistakes info given.
