so long for this keyboard(Corsair RGB Cherry MX Switches) reach our shore.

it will cost you maybe a kidney for one "Proprietary" = 1x liver

I think probably after a few months the product will be available on market .
Most CES/COmputex showcase products are in this kinda way when the feedback or demand is there imo.

the issue here is who owns MX RGB.. Cherry or Corsair or a Co-op

if corsair, we can declare GG
if Cherry, all hail new era
if both, confusion

Yea, I also confuse regarding this. Coz what i know it is now exclusively for Corsair only so far.
Kinda means like only Corsair have this rgb switch for their mechanical keyboards while other brands or competitors not allow to have due to trademark issue ?

i believe its cherry's and they just let corsair to display it first for ces only since its mainly aim at gamers. Corsair=Gamers Fav Brand.

hmm interested to get a mechanical kb. basically so far the cheapest models available in malaysia are the ducky ones (rm299) and the rosewill ones (rm269) right? just curious are there any other mechanical keyboard that are also available in our shores that is cheaper than the 2 mentioned above?

Hihi ,
From the first page of this thread list out the price tag of keyboard.
You may see those in RM2XX.
You may find some in Garage Sales, there are some good deal like RM300 for 2nd hand Filco Majestouch 2 TKL.

Do you know what MX Cherry key switches you want for your first mechanical keyboard?

Even after I get them I think I will be sticking around with the stock keycaps first. Take it slow lol don't wanna go into customizing yet
Anyway thanks for the info!

You can always buy aftermarket keycaps from taobao, nice and cheap too.
There is forummer selling their good keycaps in garage sales.

As I mention just now, do you know what kind of switches you want for you keyboard?

Not really sure because I don't really have much knowledge on what's the difference between the switches but from listening to youtube I think I like the sound of blue or the black switches

don't just listen....u need to try it for yourself.
last time i wanted to get brown because i kinda like the sound and it's in between gaming and typist.
but when i tried blue, instantly fell in love with it.

Recommend you a good introduction video


There are alot types of MX switches, eg. blue, brown, red, black, green, white, clear and some only come with variant too.
You can refer to the 1st page for more info.. But personally, I think the video is good.

Very helpful guys! Will watch the vid in a bit

imo it is best to buy and try.
you go shop press useless one.
you need take it back home/workplace to practically use it.
at least 1 week then your finger will tell you whether you like the switch or not.

for people who never own any mkb before, im sure your finger wont tell you to get which switch because you never own them any of it before.

so like i said, buy first.well if u wanna tactile then buy the tactile.
want linear just go linear.
it is simple and not too hard to make decision.

cancel plan to own ducky ready,now start saving ready for this, i wonder maybe this keyboard price tag around Rm5++.

im selling f104 brown =P go heavyarm try them switches if you're from around subang..
