Hi all, I m interested in the old style keyboard aka mechanical keyboard.. i m planning to get one to reminiscence my childhood days typing on the huge ass noisy keyboard... laugh.gif

I presumed that Keycool is one of the cheapest if not already the cheapest in the market..

Do you how can I get my hands on them? is TaoBao the only way? I cant read chinese.. so I am having difficulty navigating around the "google translated" site...

Generally, we classify DCS profile into 3 types, one is OEM, one is SP and another is Cherry (in Chinese it is called ORI).

OEM are like filco, ducky, razer and bla bla, those mainstream boards you saw outside in the market. They may still have different in height between different brands, but it is consider more minimal and shouldn't off by too far.

SP is signature plastic, which is a height in between that of OEM and Cherry.

Cherry profile is that you saw on Cherry branded keyboard (not the new 2.0 and 3.0 things), where if you compared it to OEM height, you will notice that it is around 2mm lower/shorter.

Where's the link mate? It's only photo. sweat.gif It's that's all the option? Or you didn't include link because it's in Chinese?
I was going to ask the same thing. But I'm too late:

yes, cause it is just a simple group buy with all the keys available is in the picture.

I think it is understandable even for kids.

Hopefully able to get FMJ from Taobao. Or at least used premium Hammer. Finger cross.

Just a note for those who want to get FMJ~

There is no center screw or standoff to support the pcb and plate, other than the 2 at left and right.

So the typing experience is really different from those standard OEM keyboard outside cool2.gif

hey guys.... i may have to replace my G15V1 keyboard which i LOVE VERY MUCH! unfortunately it started going kuku on me...

so im considering mechanical keyboards... usage is mostly for work and typing out syntaxes... but gaming is also a priority... mostly FPS... but the current keyboard i using temporarily pretty sux even for FPS with some keys not being registered after pressing a combo.

so whats a good and cheap mechanical keyboard that can replace my G15V1?

my main priority
- dedicated volume up and down button and dedicated mute button
- palm rest
- tilt height?

any suggestions? so far ive seen not many have them

pls recommend the cheapest option available as i also need to budget for a G13. i also might have to buy 2 sets of keyboard+G13

but feel free to recommend the higher range and expensive ones as well...just in case i have the budget

thanks.

EDIT: pls quote me when replying so that i get a notification in case i forget about this post.

thanks
