Ok thats 4 logos if we don't count the win keys but at least they aren't too obtrusive on a matte surface except for the red-black version. I think that CM/Corsair are less interested in making plain jane looking keyboards since they are gaming brands anyhow and their intended customers probably don't mind the garish logos and non-standard keycap sizes. I think mechanicals for gaming companies are just a way of creating a more lucrative product line without any real benefit for gamers anyway. Modders are just a small proportion of users and will never be able to dictate to those companies on what their designs should be like.

What was the cause of the QFR problem? was it the pcb itself like the traces/soldering or was it lack of proper support (bending) on that side of the keyboard?
*
One at the rear side of the case, one between Esc and F1, one above cursors, one on spacebar, another 2 on win-keys and lastly, another 2 on the extra keycaps. I believe no others beaten this yet. sweat.gif

Too much logo will make it looks like we are advertising for them... sweat.gif And I think apart from CM fanbois (it exist?), others prefer to keep it clean than having that much CM brandings on their boards. The rubber coating on the case is also quite redundant, giving no significant benefits but reducing the lifespan of the keyboards (after rubber coating got worn out, it will be awkward to touch on...)

But also, like I stated, CM somehow still seems to the keyboarders community. They sell clean non-branded case for QFR separately just because too much ppl complaining bout the over-branding. And they are the only gaming brands out there to come out with numerous layout and models, unlike others who ask you to accept whatever they throw at you.

BTW, what QFR problem you toking bout? So far, I hadn't heard of QFR specific issue?

Yeah, CM Storm seems like trying to fulfill most of mech kb user. They just release the CM Stealth, with standard layout but they increase the price due to sideprint keycaps. doh.gif I hope it's non rubber coated surface. I just wondering why rubber coated need to be applied to keyboard, casing and headphone.

Too bad the plain top panel weren't sold here, allowing us to be more creative. I just sanded my rubber coated headphone and I don't think I'm willing to sanding the whole top panel of QFR mx red. But headphone full of curve and sharp corner. While top panel is flat, and big corner. Mx blue, out of stock. doh.gif

I don't mean create a keyboard sub-forum. Just use the Hardware subforum but ask each keyboard question as a separate thread.

What you think really a very 5S type. Can keep this forum cleaner by asking the suitable question in suitable thread. More organised like GH.
The main purpose is keep mechanical community well-informed here. So, all questions will be consolidate under the same forum.
A lot of mkb submariners daily check with this group. Every newbie questions, pro questions, problems analysing, mkb updates, & custom all will be updated here too. biggrin.gif

ps: I only bookmark this forum, daily check without going to other subforums, it's a habit to me.

You must be talking about this smile.gif
http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=39219.0
This is a QA issue of the manufacturing. If the dppm is very low, not a concern to the manufacturing.

Just RMA it if certain key not functioning for common people. smile.gif
For mkb guru, they just fix this by resolder, just a small problem to them.
Still this i a very good mkb. biggrin.gif
