For some reason, they tend to keep with the filco style fix-wired + seperated LED indicator.

It all started since PLU era, later succeeded by HPE.

Hi sifus,

Just ordered my Quickfire Rapid Red from Dotatech. It's on sale - RM265.

Wondering if anyone in Malaysia is selling sound dampeners like these: http://www.wasdkeyboards.com/index.php/che...-dampeners.html

Does anyone here have any experience with these? Will the 0.4mm variety kill the "feel"?

Thanks in advance.

PS. This is going to be my first mechanical keyboard in... 25 years? Damn I'm old.

The price not bad.

Why don't you enjoy the stock feeling first then only decide you are going to add in dampener or o-ring to destroy the feel? whistling.gif

Also, do post some picture here after you get it. It's being a long time since last time I see QFR in this thread. Not sure now what edition already, the overbranding still there? hmm.gif

I enjoy listening to the tok-tok keycaps sound. I like the feeling but I dislike the sound. laugh.gif

I assume you want full size keyboard and USB nkro are the priority over other criteria?

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=

woah, very detailed reply! thumbup.gif
and opps.. sorry for not including my priorities.
Yes, USB NKRO is my priority, as well as it being mx red.
transparent keycaps tho would be optional since its pretty rare..
was thinking if there's none, i'll buy 1 without it and customize it later tho budget is an issue hmm.gif

anyways, thanks for the suggestions! smile.gif

Iirc, it is 6 or under 6.

If you are too free, you can always flash back the stock firmware (also available from the same site) and try. whistling.gif

hellloooo i'm a newbie here, looking for useful advice.

last month, i decided to buy a mkb for a rhythm game im obsessed with. so i bought my first mkb which is the quickfire TK red switches, i really like the design and the backlights. but unfortunately, the L button didn't function for no reason at all, rarely press that button. so i went back to the store and used to warranty, they said i can exchange my keyboard to a new one, but too bad it's out of stock. so i had to find another keyboard with red switches, so i picked up the steelseries 6gv2 red switches. obviously need to pay extra lah, overall its a good keyboard but its too big for my computer table; unlike the TK, which the design is small and compact. so guys, should i sell 6gv2 then buy another QFR TK or just stay with 6gv2? is 6gv2 more tankier than the TK? because the game i play requires mashing buttons, and i don't want the keys to be spoiled too soon sad.gif

the switches wouldn't spoil that easily unless it's defect right from the start.
my advice is sell the 6gv2 and get ikbc f104other tkl which is of standard layout.
