Can u recom me mecha keyboard?
Budget:rm300
Nonit backlit and macro.
Games: Sc2, Dota2, Bf4
I currently look into Corsair K65,is Tis good?

Please dun hit rm350 or 400 since already extremely overbudget...
*
Either ducky zero or rosewill rk9000..these 2 are below 300 and available locally. But rk9000 is more recommended over ducky zero. I don't recommend corsair as I opt for standard layout so that in future if u want to replace key caps...that will save u money n headache. Other than that...I don't know much about the quality of k65

Typing experience is the first thing to consider in mechanical keyboard.
That's why hardcore people always looking for the best for their fingers.

Usually starting from the switch.
Linear vs Tactile. Best linear would be vintage black and the tactile one should be mx clear. while i agree mx clear is a good tactile, but blue/green is a great option as well! biggrin.gif

Springs - stock springs not so nice - 55G/62G korean springs will be the best.

Lube - A must for the best feeling out of your fingers. Not for mx blues! ohmy.gif

Stickers - Eye candies. Less wobbles, for people can feel it.

Plate - just metal/alu plate.

Casing - Metal casing is a must too (P/S I should recommend this first before anything)

Memory foam - Another little things, but giving great effect. It dampens the sound a lot. Quite noticeable. But you can't use too thick as you will feel like typing a keyboard on sofa.

Just wait for your  LZ-FE.
You will disappoint when you compare LZ-S with it tongue.gif.
LZ-S is just a top case + stainless steel plate on bottom.

i just did a check on LZ-FE

Trying to get refund for LZ-FE. I think I am almost cured of mkb poison, my original plan is to buy feng's LZ-S and keep it as my one and only board

I know that LZ-S is not worth it as it's overpriced. He's asking $500 for it, but it's sky blue

Cause it cost a little too much for the "exclusivity and rarity" they lead people to believe in, while in truth there are more than 100 units made unlike their previous product
*
ahh...so they kinda like have quota for GH, and other places?
but true, USD$520 is a hefty price to pay for a casing >.<

I dont mind pricing if the quality of finished product is great.
Meanwhile, the acrylic casing you can find in taobao for RMB169 only.
Thats about 2.5 times cheaper. Quality wise, never try before.
But it should decent enough.

matte or shining top layer?
